If you keep referring to Mormons separately from Christians, I''ll be left with no choice but to put on my moderator hat and deal with it.
I guess that is your privilege but my point about where this topic belongs couldn't be more clear. It's an insult to all Jews to say that the phrase is a Christian one.

I'm beginning to think maybe this topic shouldn't even be discussed. As if I was intentionally careless. Maybe it's enough just to read the personal thoughts that the writers had and that is enough. But nothing in the Bible (or any book) should affect or influence our own spiritual beliefs.

In other words, I read the Bible particularly the Old Testament to feel connected with others who share some of my beliefs. From writers who were gifted in that expression.
