I did a bunch of searches on google and on bartleby.com (an excellent reference site that has an entire section on verse). the closest thing I could find was this passage from the bible: \n\nNUMBER:1316\nQUOTATION:Lay not up for yourselves treasures upon earth, where moth and rust doth corrupt, and where thieves break through and steal: but lay up for yourselves treasures in heaven, where neither moth nor rust doth corrupt, and where thieves do not break through nor steal: for where your treasure is, there will your heart be also.\nATTRIBUTION:Bible: New Testament Jesus, in Matthew, 6:19-21.\n \nDo you remember where you saw or heard the poem? That might help a bit.

It is written, "Lean not on thine own understanding" Trust in the Lord... Christ - the Word. Obviously, don't give anything to trolls... don't throw your pearls before swine. Contribute to those in need, as the Lord directs.

"the great whore that sitteth upon many waters: with whom the kings of the earth have committed fornication, and the inhabitants of the earth have been made drunk with the wine of her fornication." (Rev. 17:1-2 KJV)\nSounds like a party to me!

Leviticus 11:7 - And the swine, though he divide the hoof, and be clovenfooted, yet he cheweth not the cud; he is unclean to you. \n\nThis chapter talks about what you can eat.

The Apostle Paul writes of this very thing in Romans 11.  And God gives the prophecy to Ezekiel of all the Israelites who have died without knowing the salvation of Christ.\n\nEzekiel 37:11 -- "Then he [God] said to me, Son of man, these bones are the whole house of Israel [including the Jews]: behold, they say, Our bones are dried, and our hope is lost: we are cut off for our parts.\n12 Therefore prophesy and say to them, Thus said the Lord GOD; Behold, O my people, I will open your graves, and cause you to come up out of your graves, and bring you into the land of Israel.\n\nPaul uses the metaphore of an olive tree and its branches:\nRomans 11:17 -- "And if some of the branches [Israelites, including Jews] be broken off, and you [Gentiles], being a wild olive tree, were grafted in among them, and with them partake of the root and fatness of the olive tree;...\n23 And they also, if they [Israelites] abide not still in unbelief, shall be grafted in: for God is able to graft them in again.\n26 And so all Israel shall be saved..."

It says don't cast your pearls before swine...You can talk to someone about God, but if they aren't receptive, then you should let it go and pray that God will open their hearts at a later time...Let the dead bury the dead, I believe Jesus told that to his disciples...I think he was saying to let the dead in spirit bury the dead in body

It is also not god's will for you to eat shrimp, wear clothes made of 2 kinds of thread or for men to shave their beards.  In the same chapter where it describes "man laying with men as with women" it also outlines how a daughter may be sold into slavery.\n\nIf you are going to hold these beliefs please be consistent and don't pawn off your bigotry as the "will of god"

I used BibleGateway.com and did a Keyword search for "music" - I got 106 hits from the entire Bible (New International Version), some of which named more than one instrument.  For example, 1 Chronicles 15:16 names lyres, harps and cymbals.\n\nIt might be useful for you to play around with.

If you have a strong stomach, this website will help you gathering facts.  There is a video that automatically pops up. Close it if you don't want to watch it...it is gruesome.\n\nhttp://www.abort73.com/HTML/I-case.html\n\nAbortion in not mentioned in the Bible.  Abortion is a recent proceedure that was not around in the days the bible was written.\n\nBut, God does care for the unborn\nExodus 21:22-25 (NIV)  \n    "If men who are fighting hit a pregnant woman and she gives birth prematurely but there is no serious injury, the offender must be fined whatever the woman's husband demands and the court allows. [23] But if there is serious injury, you are to take life for life, [24] eye for eye, tooth for tooth, hand for hand, foot for foot, [25] burn for burn, wound for wound, bruise for bruise.\n\nGod does care if we kill our children... \n\nLeviticus 18:21 (NIV)  (Child sacrifice)\n    " 'Do not give any of your children to be sacrificed to Molech, for you must not profane the name of your God. I am the Lord. \n\nLeviticus 20:3-4 (NIV)  \n    I will set my face against that man and I will cut him off from his people; for by giving his children to Molech, he has defiled my sanctuary and profaned my holy name. [4] If the people of the community close their eyes when that man gives one of his children to Molech and they fail to put him to death,\n\nPsalm 139:13-16 (NKJV)  \nFor You formed my inward parts;\nYou covered me in my mother's womb. \n14I will praise You, for I am fearfully and wonderfully made;\nMarvelous are Your works,\nAnd that my soul knows very well. \n15My frame was not hidden from You,\nWhen I was made in secret,\nAnd skillfully wrought in the lowest parts of the earth. \n16Your eyes saw my substance, being yet unformed.\nAnd in Your book they all were written,\nThe days fashioned for me,\nWhen as yet there were none of them.

You are very right.  When people cut things out of the Bible, they start with Rev  22:18.  ; )  But almost everyone actually just chooses which things to follow, there are VERY few groups that obey everything in the Bible (keeping kosher, not eating shellfish, not allowing men to have long hair, treating their slaves well, etc.).  Really it's all just a buffet.

Genesis 3:17 And to Adam he said: “Because you listened to your wife’s voice and took to eating from the tree concerning which I gave you this command, ‘You must not eat from it,’ cursed is the ground on your account. In pain you will eat its produce all the days of your life. 18 And thorns and thistles it will grow for you, and you must eat the vegetation of the field. 19 In the sweat of your face you will eat bread until you return to the ground, for out of it you were taken. For dust you are and to dust you will return.”\n\nSo, the bible clearly states that he is dead, not in heaven or the hell that the churches teach. He is in the ground!\n\nTo learn more about what the bible really teaches, have your bible ready and visit www.watchtower.org, or you can contact me.
