what is the most interesting bad proof texting?

what is the most interesting bad proof texting? I forget the ones used by others for not returning my tools.

Proverbs 26:4-5

What do you mean by "bad proof texting?" And when you say "interesting," what do you mean exactly?

Do unto others as they do unto you, instead of "as you would have them do unto you".

Oh I get it! You're referring to the story you told over on the "Woodworking Area" thread. How certain people used Luke 6:34-35 to prove they didn't have to return your tools. And you're wondering if anyone else has examples of when people mishandled the Scriptures to use them as proof texts out of context?

Matthew 7:1...Judge not..
This verse gets so abused.

I heard someone use Amos 6:5 as a proof text that Christians shouldn't play or listen to musical instruments. "That chant to the sound of the viol, and invent to themselves instruments of musick, like David;"

Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ, and you will be saved, you and your household Acts 16:31

Its amazing how many verses are taken out of context to apply to all today.

I'll try.

God is a spirit. John 4
God is not a man that he should lie. (Why then the male gender pronoun?) Numbers 23
Why then did God claim for himself 32 virgins? Numbers 31:32-40

John 8:7

"He that is without sin among you, let him first cast a stone at her."

People usong Romans 11 to prove that there will be a divided Kingdom of God. A jew kingdom and christendom.

Were they from Church of Christ?

I just looked at that chapter. You already know this. Music is never forbidden to believers in use for worshipping God. It's actually commanded. David was never forbidden to give his Holy Spirit inspired psalms/songs to the chief musician to carry throughout the tribes.
The actual understanding of the passage looks like the idea is that pagan practices of chanting along with playing music is forbidden. The chanting was the name of the false deities as a method to summon to them. The same technique is used today with burning of incense while chanting a mantra. The mantra is not usually known to westerners, but many Indians know what they are. Westerners are told that the word/the mantra is a secret word that is only assigned only to the new practitioner. They are lied to. The mantras are usually taken from a list of false deities/ demons that are written in the Indian Sanskrit. They are repeated endlessly as the person listens to music and enters a hypnotic state of consciousness.

Mark 6:7
"But when ye pray, use not vain repetitions, as the heathen do: for they think that they shall be heard for their much speaking."

That brings me back to the bad proof texting of the new agers. They often half way quote one of the many verses the Bible uses about meditation to justify their heathen version of meditation.

Meditation in the Bible means to think about, cogitate upon the Word of God.
The heathen definition is the opposite. They define meditation as an emptying of the mind. It's a technique to bring about possession of the unbeliever.
I'm explaining this so much because God delivered me out of the most popular religious group of Hindu meditation practitioners when I was a child. It was really creepy to be led through a satanic/ pagan initiation ritual at a young age. I'm glad they scared me away from their stupid religion. Lol

Here's some fallen state "proof" texting from Jesse Lee Peterson. This sounds like a preacher member who will go without being named at this time. 😄


Jesse Lee Peterson's Fallen State is Not so Amazing
😄 So funny!

I think he's a tragic example of a preacher.

No he was Anabaptist actually,
