The scripture that comes to my mind is 'Jesus wept,'.. Jesus weeps today for the loss of life in New Orleans and he weeps that his gospel is being hijacked by the rabid rhetoric of the religious right -- that is in its own way as destructive to our national fabric as Hurricane Katrina has been.

We would hope that good Christian leaders would distance themselves from Pat Robertson's remarks. It is pure arrogance for Robertson to suggest that he has divine knowledge of God's intent and purpose based on his interpretation of scripture.

Being much troubled to see the falseness of the constitution of the Church of England, I had like to have turned Separatist. Whereupon I kept a day of solemn humiliation and pondering of the thing; this scripture was brought unto me-he that denies Jesus Christ to be come in the flesh is antichrist.

All anger is not sinful, because some degree of it, and on some occasions, is inevitable. But it becomes sinful and contradicts the rule of Scripture when it is conceived upon slight and inadequate provocation, and when it continues long.

I am very concerned that we keep a distinction between public schools and Sunday schools. And I'm not sure that all lay teachers are going to be able to teach objectively about what is any people's sacred text and scripture.

They've put scripture from Genesis in each animal on different spots. What they call it is 'God on the move.' Nobody will know it but the actor, but it is just a reminder to the actor that you are carrying out the gospel.

Jesus refers to the poor over and over again. There are 2,000 verses of Scripture that call upon us to respond to the needs of the poor. And yet, I find that when Christians talked about values in this last election that was not on the agenda, that was not a concern. If you were to get the voter guide of the Christian Coalition, that does not rate. They talk more about tax cuts for people who are wealthy than they do about helping poor people who are in desperate straits.

We've seen destructive lifestyles applauded and promoted in schools and public venues even as prayer, Scripture, and expressions of faith are ridiculed and banned.

To begin with, I had to take my faith and my beliefs and set them aside, so I could take an objective approach. I wanted to know why I believed the things I had been told. Through the whole process, it strengthened me. I feel I am more of a believer now than I ever was. There are some skeptics' views that really make a lot of sense. I really had to wrestle with them. Scripture comes to life now in a way it never had.

In our course, the Bible itself is required reading. But the student textbook, along with teacher training, is an important new resource for public schools seeking a Bible course that respects the Bible's role as sacred scripture to millions of Americans, and yet meets court-defined First Amendment standards. This course will give both believing and unbelieving students a better grasp of what the Bible actually says, while at the same time showing them how its words have significantly influenced our culture - with visually engaging features about the impact on literature, music, art, speeches, history and the English language itself.

Service is the highest spiritual discipline. Prayer and meditation, or knowledge of scripture and Vedanta (holy scriptures of India), cannot help you reach the goal as quickly as service can. Service has a double effect, it extinguishes the ego and gives bliss.

Here in the scripture is a woman who is downright no good,.. That's what people called her. She's not allowed to be among us. We are dignified. We are church folk, but we are dignified.

I always have a hard time answering this one. There are some symbols in there that maybe be misinterpreted that way, but as far as the game itself, it's just a game. But anything that you would spend any more time on than you would reading scripture or focusing on your relationship with Christ is going to have the same effect.
