On Tuesday of this week, we talked about the importance of using the actual Scriptures instead of just biblical principles to guide and direct our children. It has never been easier to do this, since now we have wonderful technology that provides us with the ability to fit the entire Bible - complete with numerous translations and a concordance - in a device that fits in the palm of our hands. However, with amazing technology comes responsibility. I don't want my children to forget (or never learn) what a real Bible looks like, or confuse the truth of the Bible with all the other information that you can find on my phone. If you are not continually a student of the Bible, someone could easily trick you or your children simply by saying, "The Bible says....". Do you know which of these things are really in the Bible?
1. "God helps those who help themselves.
2. The Book of Hezekiah
3. "Cleanliness is Next to Godliness"
4. Angels married people on earth.
5. A Bohemoth that some say might be describing a dinosaur or even the Lock Ness Monster."God helps those who help themselves."
You can use your handheld devices to search for these, but don't do this in church while pretending to follow along while the pastor reads from God's word.
