Exactly.

There's a local pastor here in Montana that was quoted in the newspaper as saying (in total contradiction to his church's mission statement, according to one of the church members) that his church believes the message of Jesus as Saviour is more important than the Scriptures, which are not to be taken literally.

My question: what does he base his belief in Christ as Saviour on if NOT THE SCRIPTURES???

All of this ignorance stems from the natural laziness of humans. So-called Christians are no different than the rest of humanity (ie - lazy). If all self-proclaimed believers in Christ would take the time to ACTUALLY READ THE BIBLE - ernestly seeking to know God - then almost all of this ignorance would vanish.

But I hold no such hopes for the immediate future.
