Doesn't appear that your bible has been very effective these days when it comes to addressing the ills you speak of. And it's for the simple reason that a person can take any passage from any one of the many countless versions of the "bible" and use it to support whatever self righteous point of view they want. God said this or Jesus said that. No, it's what that person is saying himself or herself . They just need just a third party and more if they can get them to help support their viewpoint despite the fact that we never hear anything these days from God or Jesus directly.

God speaks in a whisper. You have to shut up and listen in order to hear.

Something you seem incapable of.

When coming to a conclusion about what the Bible is teaching in any given passage, the context the verse considered must always be included. You don't get to pull a few words out of one verse and make your claim.
Having said that, when two people disagree on the interpretation of a passage... only one can be right. They both can be wrong, but only one can be right.

By their fruit you will recognize them. Do people pick grapes from thornbushes, or figs from thistles?

If your defense of killing pre birth babies is to save money, why not do the same to poor leeches on society after birth? You are clearly a commie.

Killing babies? Tonight a state court denied the request filed by the parents of a 10 month old baby to keep the child on a ventilator while they made arrangements to setup hospice care at home.... That state? Well, believe it or not it was that cradle of right wing pro life Christian based politics...Texas.

They can use one verse or any number of verses to support their self righteous point of view due to the fact that no one was alive back when those texts were written is still around today who can confirm it's present day interpretation as being the correct one. That gives the individual complete freedom to use it in any manner he or she chooses to justify his or her actions and or point of view as being morally just .

Anyone can use or say anything about any verse.
Everyone has the freedom to use it in any manner they choose to justify their actions or point of view as being morally just.
That all being said again , just because one has an interpretation does not mean it is the correct one.
Again, two people, two interpretations, either one has to be wrong and one right or both are wrong because both interpretations that are different cannot be right.

Ew gross Bible stuff

It's not about saving money but rather the lack of commitment on the part of pro lifers for providing direct financial support for the children born from unplanned pregnancies .So tell me how many of the pro lifers currently or in the past have had to rely on Roosevelt New Deal and or Johnson Great Society social programs in order to provide for their kids?

Your argument was that it's about money.
You just repeated that argument with the preface "it's not about money". Silly rabbit.

Again I'll ask you... If your defense of killing pre birth babies is to save money, why not do the same to poor leeches on society after birth? You are clearly a commie.

God speaks in a whisper.

Why?

 

[BrownFlush]

Why?

Don't worry.
No one who alive today or the past 2000 years has ever heard God literally whisper, speak, or laugh.
He speaks to everyone the same way. Through the written Word.

So one can't say God told them anything that they haven't read in the Bible?

 

[BrownFlush]

Anyone can say God spoke to them. Many have. He does not.
He speaks through his word only.

 

[BrownFlush]

Not really.
You can use the same rule of interpretation with any written document. Your contract book would be an example.

This is heresy, then?

From The Christian Post:

Trump says he spoke to God about economy, believes God will help him rebuild it again

“President Donald Trump revealed he spoke to God about the economy amid the coronavirus pandemic and God told him He’s going to have him rebuild “the greatest economy in the history of the world” again.

Your problem is you view yourself as a messianic figure. If only people would listen to you!
