How do we determine what a scripture really means?

from Your Place Hosted by Wild Bill Mullinax

Last week we talked about how the show format is not one that makes people want to share their thoughts on the topic discussed. The reason stated was because we cover all of the aspects of the topic. I wish! There was a scripture quoted last week that I am reminded of how we quote a scripture as a fix all to a situation without applying what we know of God in the scripture verse. We are going to share a couple of these scriptures and allow you to share your insights on what it means. Plus we are looking for you to share scriptures that you also think we take out of context of what we know of God and His relationship with man. The real test of how this is going to work is going to be based on how much interaction we get from our listeners. If people do not take part this could be a real short show! So have your bible and opinion ready. For example the scripture tells us that unless we come as a little child we cannot please God. That is not the exact words. But the way Wild Bill acts is not what this scripture is talking about. Child like and simple minded was not what God was saying. So what was he saying there? That is what we are wanting to hear from you and other scriptures like this.
