Beware of Quotes<\/b><\/p>\n
You can\u2019t quote the Bible indiscriminately. I remember the story of two lawyers during a trial. One thought he would make a great impression on the jury by quoting from the Bible. So he said concerning his opponent\u2019s client, \u201cWe have it on the highest authority that it has been said, \u2018All that a man has will he give for his skin.\u2019\u201d<\/p>\n
But the other lawyer knew the Bible better. He said, \u201cI am very much impressed by the fact that my distinguished colleague here regards as the highest authority the one who said, \u2018All that a man has will he give for his skin. \u2018 You will find that this saying come from the Book of Job, and the one who utters it is the devil. And that is whom he regards as the highest authority!\u201d – Ray Stedman<\/p>\n

Irrevelant<\/b><\/p>\n
A survey was made of 4000 laymen in 114 evangelical churches across the U. S. They were asked, \u201cDo you feel the preaching on Sunday relates to what\u2019s going on in your life?\u201d Over 83% saw virtually no connection between what they heard on Sunday morning and what they faced on Monday morning.<\/p>\n
Howard Hendricks, 1984 Multnomah Pastor\u2019s Enrichment Conference<\/p>\n
No Inspiration<\/b><\/p>\n
Gipsy Smith told of a man who said he had received no inspiration from the Bible although he had \u201cgone through it several times.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cLet it go through you once,\u201d replied Smith, \u201cthen you will tell a different story!\u201d<\/p>\n
