I run across it hap inwards online comments, inwards personal conversations, inwards Bible studies in addition to inwards church building services, fifty-fifty from church building pulpits: Christians putting words inwards God’s mouth.
It’s largely due to the fact that nosotros aren’t Berean enough.
The Bereans listened respectfully to the Apostle Paul when he told them nigh Jesus, only they checked everything he said amongst Scripture (Acts 17:11).
They trusted the words of Scripture (the words of God) to a greater extent than than the words of whatever man.
If nosotros run to a greater extent than Berean, we’ll avoid a corking many errors, a corking many half-truths.
1. We’ll written report Scripture regularly to grow inwards our overall cognition of God’s actual words (2 Timothy 2:15).
See Fake News Stories in addition to Twisted Scriptures.
2. We’ll exam every pedagogy against Scripture, fifty-fifty the teachings of Christians nosotros admire (1 Thessalonians 5:21).
See Don't Let Others Do Your Thinking.
3. We’ll spend upward whatever in addition to every pedagogy that is untrue or half true (Colossians 2:8).
See Avoiding Concrete Minds.
4. We’ll beak upward gently only firmly when other Christians position words inwards God’s oral cavity (Colossians 4:6).
See Peace is Not the Highest Good.
It’s incorrect to misquote anyone, only specially harmful when nosotros misquote God.
