Daily Bible Verse:

Matthew 17:20 He said to them, “Because of your little faith. For truly, I say to you, if you have faith like a grain of mustard seed, you will say to this mountain, ‘Move from here to there,’ and it will move, and nothing will be impossible for you.

[falcon9]

“For truly, I say to you, if you have faith like a grain of mustard seed, you will say to this mountain, ‘Move from here to there,’ and it will move, and nothing will be impossible for you."

The biblical assertion constitutes a false claim since religious "faith" doesn't even move a "mustard seed", let alone mountains.  Metaphorically, it's a misnomer which tacitly replaces seccular confidence in one's own capabilities with religious faith in dubious supernatural entities.  This is a disingenuous and baseless implied conflation common to proselytizing propaganda, (e.g., indirect or, implied lying).

2 Corinthians 3:17
"Now the Lord is the Spirit; and where  the Spirit of the Lord is there is liberty."

That one is contrary to the repressive strictures in the rest of the 'babbling bible'.

Proverbs 3:5-7 Trust in the Lord with all your heart. Never rely on what you think you know. Remember the Lord in everything you do, and he will show you the right way. Never let yourself think that you are wiser than you are; simply obey the Lord and refuse to do wrong.

Overt brain-washing propaganda such as that "proverb" exemplifies the cult-like supersitious nature of xtianity.

Obviously not a 'verse' xtians live by since such religious propaganda is "the ignorant talk of foolish people".  Catch-22 or, simply more irrational superstitious beliefs?

The "foolish ignorance" comes from irrational superstitious religious beliefs and those aren't "silent".

Ephesians 1:3-6
 
Wednesday 22 August 2012
 
Praise be to the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who has blessed us in the heavenly realms with every spiritual blessing in Christ. For he chose us in him before the creation of the world to be holy and blameless in his sight. In love he predestined us for adoption to sonship through Jesus Christ, in accordance with his pleasure and will--to the praise of his glorious grace, which he has freely given us in the One he loves.

Ephesians 1:3-6

"Faith is a cop-out. It is intellectual bankruptcy. If the only way you can accept an assertion is by faith, then you are conceding that it can't be taken on its own merits."
--Dan Barker, former evangelist

I pray that God will be kind to you and will let you live in perfect peace! May you keep learning more and more about God and our Lord Jesus. We have everything we need to live a life that pleases God. It was all given to us by God's own power, when we learned he had invited us to share in his wonderful goodness. God made great and marvelous promises, so his nature would become part of us. Then we could escape our evil desires and the corrupt influences of this world. — 2 Peter 1:2-4 (CEV)

— 2 Peter 1:2-4 (CEV)

“Recalling some of the most spectacular horrors of history -- the burning of heretics and witches at the stake, the wholesale massacre of "heathens," and other no less repulsive manifestations of xtian 'civilization' in Europe and elsewhere -- modern man is filled with pride in the "progress" accomplished, in one line at least, since the end of the dark ages of religious fanaticism.”
-- Savitri Devi

Don't be like the people of this world, but let God change the way you think. Then you will know how to do everything that is good and pleasing to him. — Romans 12:2 (CEV)
