The World's Most Butchered Scriptures?
Let's compile a list of the most frequently butchered scriptures.
I'll start...
"And I, if I be lifted up, will draw all men unto me."—John 12:32 .
Why do Pentecostals think this means WE are to lift Him up by praising Him; shouting, dancing, screaming, running and the like?
It really meant that if He was CRUCIFIED He would draw all men.
Okay, your turn.

In James: "An open-minded man is unstable in all his ways."
I heard that quoted recently, but still can't find it.......

Ok, I'll bite.
Deut 22:5 The woman shall not wear that which pertaineth unto a man, neither shall a man put on a woman's garment: for all that do so are abomination unto the LORD thy God.
This means women can't wear pants, even women's pants.
What did you expect me to say?????

How about the cloud the "size" of a man's hand?

1 Kings 18:44 The seventh time the servant reported, "A
cloud as small as a man's hand is rising from the sea." So Elijah said, "Go and tell Ahab, 'Hitch up your chariot and go down before the rain stops you.' "
Hey, you're right! "As small as" is
so not the same as "the size of"!
