Bible Quotation FAIL

If you can’t read the quote, it says, “If thou therefore wilt worship me, all shall be thine. – Luke 4:7″

If you don’t know why that’s funny, then read Luke 4:7 in its context!

    Maybe they’re just being honest about their side… It IS U.C.C., after all.

      Could be. I’m not familiar with the UCC though. Although having “united” in your title usually isn’t a good sign.

    Without exaggeration, UCC is about the most apostate denomination I’ve ever seen, bar none.

    I cannot seem to get my jaw up off the floor. Oh…my. What an interesting verse to choose, and as the previous commenter has pointed out, it is *very* fitting for the UCC. Absolute God hating rubbish!

    Holy smokes, Batman. That’s TERRIBLE. John 16:3.

    This was from their website a few years ago (2006 I believe). If I remember correctly, the day the bloggers caught it, someone emailed the church asking for an explanation and it was down within the hour.

    Nathan: Well, thanks to the Internet nothing is forgotten…and I missed it during its first appearance. ;-) Thanks for the extra info.

    There current website is actually their facebook profile. I guess that’s okay if, for whatever reason, a church doesn’t have the resources to get a proper website off the ground (theirs has been “in the process of rebuilding” since 2009). But the facebook profile in question makes more of the fact that the church “likes” Orios and the Philadelphia Phillies (a baseball team) than it does of Jesus Christ.

    Yikes. I’ve seen verses misused out of context many times before, but I can’t recall any occasion I have seen it done that badly

    “Funny” isn’t the word. “Horrifying” is more like it.
