This one really annoys me. I know that Jesus cares about how we treat others, of course! We should treat them with love and care. But I really do believe that He wants us to learn His Word and perhaps memorize it too. The Word of God is our tool against the enemy in this world. Why not utilize it to the best of our abilities?
I think this quote is suggesting that we should just forget about the Bible altogether.
This might be off subject...but bear with me. So last week I was with my cousins and they were watching a show called "True Life" on MTV. The episode was about religion and how a gay guy really wanted to stop his homosexual lifestyle to please Jesus. He had just given his life to God. Anyways he was having a hard time with it and decided to visit a "different" church. In this church the Pastor told him that the Bible is the Word of God but that it's tainted and had a human fingerprint on it. So we shouldn't believe EVERYTHING in it!!!!
I was shocked and felt sick. I cannot believe any Pastor would say something like that! Of course he was just trying to get the guy to go to his church by accepting his homosexual lifestyle. At the end of the episode the young man goes back to his original church and decides to stop living a gay life, praise God for that! I hope and pray he can do it successfully.
Now, what I'm trying to say is that people may want God's love or be a Christian...but when you take the Bible away...is it still Christianity we're talking about? I know people nowadays need to treat others better, but a lot of Christians (myself included) need to read the Word more, too.
Morals and ethics change throughout time. Humans are not perfect and this is why we shouldn't rely on each other to set these standards. This is why we need the infallible Word of God.
Sorry I ranted a little too much...
