9. Wasn't there something in that book about those who preach in public from street corners being fakes...

11. Matthew 6:5-13

"And when thou prayest, thou shalt not be as the hypocrites are: for they love to pray standing in the synagogues and in the corners of the streets, that they may be seen of men...when thou prayest, enter into thy closet, and when thou hast shut thy door, pray to thy Father which is in secret...when ye pray, use not vain repetitions, as the heathen do: for they think that they shall be heard for their much speaking..."

12. A quote from this morning's sermon "When you read scripture, read it thru the eyes of Jesus"

i.e. reading scripture as a unified story of divine redemption centered on Jesus’s life, death, and resurrection

Somehow I think this America Reads the Bible stunt falls a bit short of that admonition

[Blue Full Moon]

14. They have been working on this since the 1970s.

They tried to convince churches that Jimmy Carter was going to make Southern Baptist the state religion and that Reagan was a man of God. In the early 1990s they contemplated rewriting the Bible to get rid of Jesus. Well Jesus's teachings.
