Computers suck!
People have gone from actually studying the Word to Googleing the Word then cutting and pasting it. Makes them look really knowledgeable but they actually learn very little this way. That's why so many here don't believe the majority of the bible. They don't know what it says. And they do it all intellectually to win their point. Because of this there is little love involved in this site. Only a mediocre show of it. Though to be honest, there are some real Christians in this forum.
Its all because of this tech shortcut called computers.
I disagree. People were doing this long before the computer age with a concordance. Whether people study the Bible like they should and share relevant scriptures, or they pick scriptures with no back up of understanding. Either way, one has to look up relevant scriptures because they can't mention every word in the Bible every time just to cover their point- they must be more specific than the entire bible. And unless you have every scripture memorized, you would have to look it up by google or concordance. Nothing wrong with that.
But as for their intentions, God knows what those are. It matters not anyways, either they biblically prove what you already know, didn't know, or they can't prove it. Either way you have to go by what your conscience says is right. If some different people tell me throughout my life "B is a letter of the alphabet." I just think to myself I already know that. If I didn't, I would thank them for showing me that. But if some people said "Obazud is a letter of the alphabet." I would think to myself "No it's not. And I know because..." Everyone has a God-given right to believe whether a teaching matches the Bible or not, and those who knowingly spread or accept falsehood will not pass God's judgement.
And at any given time, someone could be just learning something you've learned years ago. So it's important to teach the same things over and over again. Just like every day is someone's birthday even though it's not yours. A waterfall never stops producing water, and you should never stop producing truth to the best of your ability. No matter how many times someone tells me "This is a letter of the alphabet." I will always recheck it anew in my mind- this is having an open mind- as we all should. Making sure you're following the doctrine of Christ is not a once in a lifetime thing- but an ongoing lifetime thing- anewed daily.
