"That's Not What It Means To Me"

Ever heard this when discussing the Bible with someone?
"That isn't what that verse says to me."
If so, then perhaps you could say this in response to clarify the issue:
"Oh. What would it say if you and I were dead?"
This is a helpful little nugget from the guys at the Pyromaniacs blog. It will flesh out our interpretive assumptions, which is good for all of us to do when seeking to understand the Bible.
