Epitome of despising the word of God
cjwood:
i find it ironic how your customer wanted checks with "inspirational sayings" on them, but, NOT scripture quotes. i would have been curious, just for the heck of it, to find out what she would have described as "inspirational sayings". seems just another example of how most of humankind loves wordly wisdom (and its' inspirational sayings) as opposed to the wisdom of God. oh well, one day all will know the wisdom of God.

I remember when I was a kid thinking if the house got on fire I would do everything in my power to rescue my Bible. Now? I know it's paper and ink and there is no need to do such a thing. The Word of God is not paper and ink. The scriptures are not magic words or sacred superstitious quotes. If I burn all my Bibles up, the Word can still be obtained. The Word is not a quoted chapter and verse of ancient times. The Word is alive.

To keep perspective, at the time Jesus Christ said these words; there was no New Testament Writings.
Almost 2000 years ago and Just as Alive Now as Then.

John 5:39:
You search the writings, because you think in them life age-lasting to have; and they are those testifying concerning me;
John 6:63:
It is the Spirit that gives life. The flesh does not profit, nothing! The words which I speak to you are spirit and are life.
Emphasized Bible by Rotherham
John 5:39:
Ye search the Scriptures, because, ye, think, by them, to have, life age-abiding; and, those Scriptures , are they which bear witness concerning me:
John 6:63:
The spirit, it is, that giveth life,—the flesh, profiteth, nothing: The declarations which, I, have spoken unto you, are, spirit, and, are, life.
