The people being derided followed God's teaching- to the very letter when it meant losing their lives. When our times each come, may God say the same of all of us!
Live in poverty and humility literally from the Scriptures, owning NOTHING as did St. Francis of Assisi;
Get drawn, quartered and decapitated for your conscience as did Thomas More and John Fisher;
Volunteer to die in the place of another man IN A CONCENTRATION CAMP like St. Maximilian Kolbe;
Until then, you can say "King James" chapter and verse, Greek and whatever, it is sound and fury and signifying nothing unless you back it up with your life- or death.
MEMORIZING SCRIPTURE IS NOT THE SAME AS LIVING IT, OR DYING FOR WHAT YOU BELIEVE, OR SHOWING WHAT CHRIST HIMSELF SAID TO BE THE GREATEST LOVE-THAT A MAN GIVE HIS LIFE FOR ANOTHER!
Let us all get our OWN houses in order. God bless you, one and all!
