Psalm 107:33 "He turneth rivers into a wilderness, and the watersprings into dry ground. . . ."

James 4:7 "Resist the devil. . . ." (This does not.)

1st Peter 5:8-9 ". . . Whom resist stedfast in the faith. . . ."

1st Corinthians 6:9-10 "Be not deceived . . . drunkards . . . shall [not] inherit the kingdom of God."

1st Timothy 3:2 "A bishop . . . must be . . . sober . . . Not given to wine. . . ."

3:8 "Likewise must the deacons be . . . not given to much wine. . . ."

(see: 1st Corinthians 9:25 "And every man that striveth for the mastery is temperate in all things.")

Matthew 11:18-19 "The son of man came eating and drinking, and they say, Behold a . . . a winebibber. . . ."

(Luke 7:33-34 "For John the Baptist came neither eating bread nor drinking wine. . . .")

(see: Luke 21:34 ". . . overcharged with surfeiting, and drunkenness, and cares. . . .")

Titus 3:5 "Not by works of righteousness which we have done, but according to his mercy he saved us. . . ."

Galatians 3:1-3 "Are ye so foolish? having begun in the Spirit, are ye now made perfect by the flesh?"

(Matthew 25:14-30 "And cast ye the unprofitable servant into outer darkness. . . .")

(1st Corinthians 3:6-9 "For we are labourers together with God. . . .")

John 3:16 "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son. . . ."

1st John 2:15 "Love not the world. . . ." (Yea, but what is "the world?")

(see v. 16 "For all that is in the world . . . is of the world.")

(Except: John 17:14-16 "They are not of the world, even as I am not of the world.")

(John 13:1 ". . . Jesus . . . having loved his own which were in the world, he loved them unto the end.")

(Romans 9:13-15 "As it is written, Jacob have I loved, but Esau have I hated.")

(John 17:6-9 "I pray for them: I pray not for the world. . . ."

(John 12:25 "He that loveth his life shall lose it; and he that hateth his life in this world shall keep it. . . .")

Matthew 7:1-5 "Judge not. . . ."

7:15-20 "Wherefore by their fruits ye shall know them."

1st Corinthians 5:11-13 ". . . do not ye judge them that are within? . . . put away . . . that wicked person."

John 7:24 "Judge not according to the appearance, but judge righteous judgment."

See: 7:14-23 (the context) They didn't judge righteous judgment!

(in Revelation 19:1-2 God judges the whore: we don't have to. She's guilty already)

Romans 10:4 "For Christ is the end of the law for righteousness to every one that believeth."

1st Timothy 1:5 "Now the end of the commandment is charity out of a pure heart. . . ."

Matthew 5:17-19 "Think not that I am come to destroy the law . . . I am . . . come . . . to fulfill."

"the end" defined: final product, result, cause, purpose, fulfillment (NOT "STOPPING POINT")

1st Peter 1:9 ". . . Receiving the end [result] of your faith, even the salvation of your souls."

John 18:37 "To this end was I born, and for this cause came I into the world. . . ."

1st Thessalonians 3:12-13 "And the Lord make you to increase . . . To the end he may stablish your hearts. . . ."

Hebrews 13:7 ". . . whose faith follow, considering the end of their conversation."

Hebrews 13:2 "Be not forgetful to entertain strangers: for thereby some have entertained angels unawares."

2nd John 9-10 "If there come any unto you, and bring not this doctrine, receive him not into your house. . . ."

(An "angel" that doesn't have this doctrine is a "devil.")

2nd Corinthians 6:15-17 ". . . what part hath he that believeth with an infidel? . . . be ye separate. . . ."

1st Timothy 5:20 "Them that sin rebuke before all, that others also may fear."

5:1 "Rebuke not an elder, but entreat him as a father. . . ."

Proverbs 26: 4 "Answer not a fool according to his folly, lest thou also be like unto him."

v. 5 "Answer a fool according to his folly, lest he be wise in his own conceit."

2nd Corinthians 12:6 "For though I would desire to glory [of myself], I shall not be a fool. . . ."

v. 11 "I am become a fool in glorying. . . ." (in infirmities, reproaches, necessities, persecutions, & distresses)

Is Paul a fool?

1st Corinthians 3:18-20 "If any . . . seemeth to be wise . . . let him become a fool, that he may be wise."

4:8-10 "We are fools for Christ's sake, but ye are wise in Christ. . . ." (Who's a fool?)

Psalm 37:23 "The steps of a good man are ordered by the Lord: and he delighteth in his way."

Proverbs 11:30 "The fruit of the righteous is a tree of life; and he that winneth souls is wise."

James 5:16 "The effectual fervent prayer of a righteous man availeth much."

Romans 3:10-12 ". . . There is none righteous, no, not one . . . there is none that doeth good, no, not one."

Matthew 19:16-17 ". . . there is none good but one, that is, God. . . ."

The Lord thinks and speaks comparatively, just like we do:

Ezekiel 16:46-52 "Neither hath Samaria committed half of thy sins . . . they are more righteous than thou. . . ."

2nd Peter 2:4-8 Lot is referred to as "just" and "righteous." (He twice got drunk and slept with his daughters.)

John 19:11 ". . . he that delivered me unto thee hath the greater sin."

Luke 6:27-29 "And unto him that smiteth thee on the one cheek offer also the other. . . ." (Context in v. 27)

Exodus 21:24 "Eye for eye, tooth for tooth. . . ."

(Context in vs. 1, 22, & 22:9 for "the judges")

Exodus 20:13 "Thou shalt not kill." (Matthew 5:21-22 --It's still true!)

Exodus 29:11 "And thou shalt kill the bullock before the Lord. . . ." (Acts 10:13 --Killing animals is still OK.)

Leviticus 20:9-16 "And if a woman approach unto any beast . . . thou shalt kill the woman. . . ." (Sodomy laws)

Numbers 31:14-17 ". . . kill every male among the little ones, and kill every woman. . . ." (War)

Matthew 19:16-18 "Thou shalt do no murder. . . ." (Liberals don't believe in "killing" criminals, but unborn babies.)

HERE IS HOW IT WORKS:

(1) God said: (1st Timothy 2:11-12) "But I suffer not a woman to teach, nor to usurp authority over the man. . . ."

So lesbians and women’s libbers quote: Galatians 3:28 ". . . there is neither male nor female. . . ."

(to justify sodomy and women preachers)

[Of course they are totally out of context.] (The context for Galatians 3:28 is in vs. 22 & 26-29)

(2) "It’s not the letter that counts, its the Spirit!" (When they say that, what in the world is their context?)
