“It is fit that God should be glorified whatever becomes of you. You are dear to God, but God’s name is dearer to Him than you are…You have had a great loss and affliction upon you, but God has had glory. God has glorified Himself.”
Jeremiah Burroughs, Gospel Worship, p. 10. https://heritagebooks.org/products/gospel-worship-burroughs.html

I am reading the bible (not religious) this morning was Matthew 6. Jill R needs to read that over and over again
Here's a comparison of Matthew chapter 6 (verse 1-6) from the KJV Bible (the Rodrigues family version of choice) and the NIV Bible (most common version):

KJV is on the left, read that and tell me Jill Rodrigues has any idea what even half of that means.

PSALM 55 | King James Version (kjv) Bible + Audio
1 Give ear to my prayer, O God; and hide not thyself from my supplication.2 Attend unto me, and hear me: I mourn in my complaint, and make a noise;3 Because of the voice of the enemy, because of the oppression of the wicked: for they cast iniquity upon me, and in wrath they hate me.4 My heart is sore pained within me: and the terrors of death are fallen upon me.5 Fearfulness and trembling are…

But isn't it more important to be a good person than it is to follow a particular religion. My religion says that if I help those around me and if I am a good person to people without a care of their race, gender, sexuality etc. and if I wish to follow certain teaching from my religion that make me a better person without devoutly worshipping the gods of my religion and devoting myself to certain deities, then I am a better person in the eyes of god than someone who follows the religion devoutly, prays everyday and loves certain deities deeply. My religion says I don't have to love God and I don't have to believe in him to be a good person, and God would still love me. Not everyone who is devoted to God is a good person.
The Bible states that there is no one good, or righteous. No one.
Besides, a person's 'goodness' is entirely dependent on what moral values he puts his faith in. Everyone has a religion, even if they don't call it that, and their sense of righteousness is dependent on that religion.
In which case, wouldn't following the right religion be more important than being good?

Know All About Collecting Ancient Bible Pages
People looking to acquire a rare Bible page are driven by diverse reasons. Some believe it’s an unparalleled joy to possess a historical piece of the “Word of God” and share it with others while for others, such a page could be an antique item worth buying.
A handful of people also want to get hold of a rare Bible page to honor those martyrs who were imprisoned, tortured, and burnt at the stake just because they decided to help the common people get easy access to the “Word of God.” For these people, possessing an antique Bible page is a way to show they respect those who worked fearlessly and untiringly to translate, print, publish, and make the published copies accessible to the commoner.
Whatever be your reason, knowing a few things will help you make an informed choice.
Ancient Bible Page Collection -Who Started It?                                                                  
Ancient Bible page collectors typically look for pages from celebrated Bibles with certain characteristics that make them historical pieces worth possessing. Francis Fry, Gabriel Wells, and Otto Ege are some notable names who helped collectors acquire old and rare Bible pages.
An interesting incident regarding the collection of such pages is linked to Gabriel Wells, an antiquarian bookseller based in New York. After he got a fragmented copy of the renowned 1455 Gutenberg Bible in 1921, he took the book apart completely and sold individual pages for $150 each. This gave collectors a chance to get hold of the pages of the first book (a Latin Bible), which was the first thing ever printed with a moveable typeface by the inventor of the printing press.
Now that you know a bit of history about old and rare Bible pages, here are some things to remember when buying such a page.
Checklist for Buying Old Bible Pages
Novices may not be able to distinguish pages from an authentic rare Bible and one that's relatively new. To avoid being duped, it pays to buy from places that specialize in antique Bible pages.
You should also exercise extreme caution when buying from individuals or online auctions. Individual buyers often have no idea about their Bible page’s edition and blindly trust those they bought it from. If their buyers had sold a fake Bible page claiming it to be authentic, you can get ripped.
Online sites that let you bid and buy an old Bible page could sometimes misrepresent facts or hide the real facts. This too could be dangerous and cost you dearly if you aren’t cautious.
Wrapping Up
It will help to keep the above pointers in mind and buy an authentic ancient Bible page from a reputed dealer to ensure it’s worth every dime you pay.

it's always so jarring seeing/hearing the rod kids. i know this has been discussed ad nauseam but i feel so bad for them and how robotic and uncomfortable they look all the time... like it's hard for them to speak or something... also, do christians really believe people in the OT knew "prophetically" that jesus was gonna save them in the future like wtf??? i've never heard that before (#jew) and i'm so confused with fundie logic... send help pls
Yea I totally agree, I watch them a lot and it's still so bizarre to hear them all speak when they're in performance mode. They get this deer in the headlights look and their voices become so unnatural and weird (and high-pitched if it's one of the girls).
Also yea 100%, there are prophets in every version of the Bible that I'm aware of and prophecies are all usually related to the coming/execution of Jesus (so most are in the Old Testament, my brand of Christianity believed that Jesus was the last prophet). David in particular is a big figure because most Christians believe that Jesus is a direct descendent of him (or as direct as you can be after hundreds and hundreds of years). KJV adherents like the Rodrigueses also usually believe that David wrote a lot of the Pslams and speaks prophetically about the coming of Jesus through them (authorship of the Pslams is more disputed in the NIV Bible and academic theology world as well as in Judaism iirc, but correct me if I'm wrong).
I grew up in a church that focused on the NIV and they'd tell us stories about the prophets but it was less of a deal than I think it is in KJV-focused churches which are more into the fire and brimstone-y aspects of the Bible. And then you have sects like Mormonism who take the concept of prophets and run with it into the 21st century, but that's a rant for another time lol.

There’s something about Gabriel trying to smash swat a fly with the “thou SHALL commit adultery” Bible that gives me hope for ineffable bureaucracy…
