If only it were true!
So many use the text to springboard to their hobbyhorse.
Some will pick the topic and then search for a text.
Others look for texts that will support their system.
While many take the text out of context.
Then we find the buffet preachers who pick and choose
and avoid other texts that might not tickle some ears...
In my opinion Moe makes a valid point.
