here ya go…I do believe this is for the reading one…below was the message with it that he sent to one of us…

 

If you STAY with the CSBibleStudy group (the one you are receiving this email from) you can send and receive emails having to do with the study of the Christian Science Bible Lesson.  It will NOT include the reading assignments and discussion of the daily Bible reading.

 

If you want to be a part of the reading of the Bible in Chronological Order you need to sign up for the "DailyBibleReadingGroup". Likewise it will NOT include discussions about the Bible Lesson (specifically).

 

Just got a great example of why using the NKJV makes a big difference but will have to send tomorrow or tonight…bye

To: "CSBibleStudy Subscriber" <joanieg_oh@yahoo.com> Date: Friday, June 25, 2010, 5:31 AM Hi all,   What a blessing to have so many thinkers and researchers on board this journey as we delve into the Bible together.     On a separate note, I am a bit uncertain as to how I should join the Bible reading session.  I thought I had.  So what are these conversations that we are having?  Are they not leading to our Bible Reading that commences on the 1st of July?  Can someone, perhaps Mark, set me right?   Much love,   Farida     From: Elaine Crookston <e.autopilot@gmail.com> To: CSBibleStudy Subscriber <fgrewal@yahoo.co.uk> Sent: Thu, 24 June, 2010 5:41:07 Subject: Re: All Scripture? I, Elaine, am ssigned up for the Bible study.  I am going to use the Message Bible, by Petersen, just for a different approach.  Some very good insights today.

In Sec. 3 of the Bible Lesson, the passage from II Tim. 3:16 reads, "All scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness".  This brings up the question which was once asked of me:  Is ALL scripture inspired by God?  I was asked this when serving as Second REader in my church.  The First Reader and I were practicing and after I read the passage, he asked if I believed ALL scripture is inspired?  At the time I couldn't really answer him.  Then last year I read the Bible from cover to cover and was appalled at some of the stories - incest, violence, cannibalism, etc.  When I saw my friend in church I referred back to his question and said, "My answer is No."  I certainly didn't think those references to the most base motives and actions are inspired. But then the above passage would seem to be a lie.  As I read further in the passage...."and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness", then I thought that perhaps this is what we derive from even reading about those awful events....we learn what NOT to do.  I'm still not sure that this is inspiration from  God, but I'd appreciate what others might think about this.
