How confused the average “un-churched” person in this world must become when listening to the “churched” folks. Catholics “have their verses” that teach a baby must be baptized for his sins; Protestants “have their verses” that teach baptizing an adult (not a baby) is good but has nothing to do with sins. Jehovah’s Witnesses are so committed to “their verses” that they created their own “translation,” which teaches that Jesus is not God but merely “a god,” created by God. This list of examples could go on and on.
Question: Do you think this is what God had in mind when He said, “Now I plead with you…that you all speak the same thing” (1 Cor. 1:10), “If anyone speaks, let him speak as the oracles of God” (1 Pet. 4:11), and “…Contend earnestly for the faith which was once for all delivered to the saints” (Jude 3)? How can Bible verses possibly be used to teach two different things (or more), when it is clearly affirmed, “Thy word is truth…The sum of thy word is truth” (John 17:17; Psa. 119:160)? Every verse teaches truth, therefore, every verse teaches the one truth.
