Opis

In Favorite Bible Passages I compared biblical passages in light of Martin Luther's "Sola Scriptura." Only Scipture. All Protestant denominations accept this "Sola" as dogma. What I was attempting to do was compare and contrast biblical passages without taking scripture out of context and without adding my opinions. For example, for centuries Christian scholars said that there was no link between the Gospel of John and the synoptic gospels, Mathew, Mark, and Luke. Yet there was a cross reference in my book between John 11:2 (It was that Mary which anointed the Lord with ointment, and wiped his feet with her hair, whose brother Lazarus was sick.) and Luke 7:37-38 (37 And, behold, a woman in the city, which was a sinner, when she knew that Jesus sat at meat in the Pharisee's house, brought an alabaster box of ointment, 38 And stood at his feet behind him weeping, and began to wash his feet with tears, and did wipe them with the hairs of her head, and kissed his feet, and anointed them with the ointment.) This book includes this discovery in plain sight in scripture. Similarly, Christians have said for years that they could even commit murder without divine consequence. Yet I found a consequence in 1st Corinthians 3:12-15 (12 Now if any man build upon this foundation gold, silver, precious stones, wood, hay, stubble;13 Every man's work shall be made manifest: for the day shall declare it, because it shall be revealed by fire; and the fire shall try every man's work of what sort it is. 14 If any man's work abide which he hath built thereupon, he shall receive a reward. 15 If any man's work shall be burned, he shall suffer loss: but he himself shall be saved; yet so as by fire.)
