Liberal Christians explain how you view 2 Timothy 3:16, 17
by ShadesofGrey inso the christian (baptist) that i study with says that there are things in the bible that are useful for learning from history, but if god didn't say it (this is what the sovereign lord jehovah has said, or if jesus actually said it, etc.
) then it isn't something that god is saying, so that helps us understand it?.
i know i need to say more in my question, but hopefully i will learn from your responses to the title.. .

by PaintedToeNail inwhen i saw this article on the news it really disturbed me.
the callousness of the 'people' walking by this poor, sweet baby as she lay writhing in pain and all alone, was horrific to say the least.
my blood truly felt like it ran cold and i've been thinking about this little girl all night.
