3 /5 Denise von Blankenhorn: This is a personal issue. My own beliefs are my own. I believe that the bible should be studied as a text of historical value, & each book has its own merits, to be studied separately. Such as in the book of Joshua, which I believe to be the Bibles version, or, the original
Art of War. It tells us , at the walls of Jericho, that we can make enough vibrations to create an enormous earthquake. Possibly a 5.0. Not a lot of life loss, but loss of personal property, and the fortified walls edging the city, came crumbling down. This church uses passages to send messages. The books are lessons, not to be taken out of context. That is my view. Also the views of hundreds of thousands more. Enough to have started our own, global group of churches.
