There are certain verses that it seems like everyone knows, and those verses are quoted constantly. But are they quoted correctly? This issue of Primum Mobile is dedicated to four of these often-quoted passages and how they are misapplied. “More than conquerors” by Paul Lytle You’ve seen this one on mugs, in the theme song of prosperity preachers, and on the lips of countless people. Christians are more than conquerors! But what did the Apostle Paul mean by this? “How often would I have gathered you together” by Paul Lytle Many use these words of Jesus as an attack against Calvinism. Some use to just to illustrate God’s love for us. But how many of us know that we’re not even getting this short quote right? “Judge not, lest ye be judged!” by Paul Lytle It’s become the new anthem of the Post-Modern world. Don’t judge me! Was Jesus really telling us to keep our mouths shut and ignore sin when he commanded this? “Behold, I stand at the door and knock” by Paul Lytle The misquoting of this verse is so prevalent that this very magazine has done it. Imagine our surprise when someone pointed out to us the same truth that we will attempt to explain here – Jesus is not here waiting at the door of our hearts, hoping we will let him in. He is warning a particular church to avoid judgment. |
