Out of Context

When having a conversation with someone, have you ever said, “That’s not what I meant.” Somewhere along the line in that conversation our own thoughts, ideas and intent were misconstrued so that others grossly misunderstood what was being said. “That’s not what I meant!” I wonder how often God says that during the preaching hour? Nothing is more dangerous to the church of Jesus Christ than taking a passage of Scripture out of context.
