I think it's very important if you're gonna quote religion you need do two things FIRST, state your denomination and tell what script you're read from. Otherwise it's just poetic rubble......
Not sure I agree with any of that.
But.....
I don't belong to any "denomination", and I'm not a protestant.
And, for every verse I quoted I gave the translation.....the New American Standard or NASB.
"Life is not a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in a pretty and well preserved body. But rather, to skid in broadside, thoroughly used up, totally worn out, and loudly proclaiming...WOW, What a Ride!"
