       We can easily detect a preacher who is giving textbook answers, but they are really answers that don’t benefit much to anyone. I know, because I have done this is the past. I have given textbook answers because I thought that was what I was supposed to say. The minister though needs to say what works and aligns with practicable truth, and not just what sounds nice but really doesn’t do anyone any good. These are worthless responses, a worthless religion. It definitely is true that we don’t want to say everything that comes to our minds. Sometimes when we are talking with friends, something true comes to mind but it is something that would be much better left unstated. I think this can be an even greater temptation for women, since, let’s face it, women usually like to talk more then men. It’s just the way God designed them. If we say what we are thinking all the time, even if it’s true, we will find over time that we don’t have a lot of friends. What is said may be funny at first, but too much cutting into people isn’t good.
