Per Aaron’s comment, if you jettison the Word of God when it’s inconvenient, well, you’ve jettisoned the Word of God. No telling where you’ll end up, except for the fact that most of the mainline denominations are swirling around the same drain. That just might be a hint.
Aspiring to be a stick in the mud.
