You don't have to copy & paste it Barrd, just show the reference. CB uses a program that will popup a window with the text in it. They do that for the very reason of keeping posts as short as possible. You notice I don't copy & paste texts a lot.The Barrd said:Once again....I'm not going to post the entire Bible.
No one wants to read a huge wall of text. I know I'm not going to bother to read an entire chapter of scripture in a post on a forum. Show me the pertinent verses...I can look them up in my own Bible, and check the context for myself.
As it turns out, the rest of Hebrews 8...those verses that I did not post...do not change the meaning of the verses that I did post. I posted them as well, just to make FHII happy.
Scroll up to my post #91.
Oh, and, I'll be watching to see how often you post an entire chapter at a time, Stan...not something you do on a regular basis.
You will tend to lose peoples focus IF you include all the text from the scriptures you refer to, plus it make it easier to follow the flow of though and come back to read the popup window afterwards.
Sometimes you'll also notice I don't post scripture at all, because it has often been quoted innumerable times and doesn't really require it to be shown again. If someone is going to ignore the actual import of the words, continually copying it into a post is an effort in futility.
