What if christians were interpreting the Bible incorrectly...
What steps are taken...
1. Be wise, critical so that the error is made clear...out of the confusion.
What if there's more to say and so little time?
1. Be precise, simplicity, quality.
So one needs to be well prepared in the art of the Bible?
Don't forget, many misinterpreting the Bible would think they are interpreting it correctly and without full understanding of the Bible, it is hard to face the challenge. Hermeneutics is based on historical orthodoxy, not on modern separation.

I've been reading your journal now and then and find the contents interesting. Allow me to introduce myself. My name is IDA and I am a Christian of Reformed persuasion. I'm always encouraged to meet fellow Christians of similar persuasion and would like to encourage you to continue steadfasly in your good works through the writings in this journal.
I live in Penang, Malaysia. At present, there are no Evangelical Reformed Churches in Penang but there is a small group of us meeting as a fellowship in the hope that our good Lord would grant us the joy of constituting as a church one day to the glory of His Name.
Well, just thought of getting in touch with you to see your views on this matter. Wopuld be nice to hear from you.

Dear Ida,
You may contact me at timlyg@yahoo.com
I'm glad that you've shared this with me. I shall pray on this.
It is important to rely on God and God alone. To boldly and willingly do God's work, a power not from ourselves, but of the Holy Spirit, of God.
As bold as we can be, we must not forget to girt our waists with truth. Studying diligently, the history of the churches, researching on issues the world is currently facing, comparing and contrasting what's out there, what's in this world, with the word of God, with the revelation of God. Serve God not only willingly, but with fear and reverence.
Then, God will surely use us.
I am curious as to how you came across my site?
Thank you for sharing, Ida.
Let us boldly be the light and salt of the world for our Lord.
May God bless us both, and may God bless your fellowship.
