Reasons people need to get back to God. So many answers to worldly problems contained in the Bible. Unfortunately, masses have become so dumbed down that rational thinking and understanding past a "right-swipe" makes it nearly impossible.

So what to do? Well, I figured a few years back to just drop a line or two from the Bible in appropriate moments for people that would otherwise not go near it. Not preachy, just passively....sort of like a subconscious footnote that gets planted. Minor example: Someone I know rants on someone doing something they dont like and begins tearing down their character, I listen. When they're done, and its truly just a frustrated rant, I smile and shrug, "There will never be a perfect Human and we all make mistakes. Above all remember: Do not judge lest ye be judged." followed by a wink and a smile.

In today's society, I have found it is best to drop nuggets of wisdom from the Bible in words they understand to get them to respond favorably. The full text of scripture you present here, "...This in it's entirety is important to obtain the fullness of what is meant..." will still mean nothing to those who are unable to relate context of what is being said to their own life or current goings-on. People have become very dumbed down by Public schooling and the constant onslaught of brainwashing from television.

For those of us who understand the context and spirit of why you posted, however, I thank you. It is taken with gratitude and mutual respect.

Honestly, it really is meant for the one's who have eyes to see and ears hear. It's the choice of the reader to read on or not.

Many were invited, few we're chosen.

P.s. not sure your going to like my next post, either. 🤔

I liked your post and thought it highly relevant....even said so at the bottom of my reply. I merely pointed to the fact that people have lost ability to think, even when the answer(s) are in their faces and offered a way to circumvent that.

Kind of baffled at your "P.S." response.
