If you think that's all it is, you are mistaken. That was how it was originally framed in 1954, but there have been a number of updates, and the IRS has made it know to Churches they are being monitored for anything that might be deemed "political".

Well I can assure you that my pastor doesn't alter his sermons out of fear of the IRS. He doesn't get "political" but preaches against sin in all its ways. If this code is being used as an excuse for the neutering of the church, then there are bigger problems going on. The only way the church can be neutered is if the preachers refuse to preach against sin and the gospel of Jesus Christ.

Hey foo, educate me on Judas, will ya?

Did he…

- throw down the money in the temple and then hang himself as in Matthew 27:3

Or

- keep the money then buy a field then fall head-first in the field with his guts flying out his abdomen as in Acts 1:18?

I’m expecting you to tell me he threw down some money, kept the rest, bought a field, hanged himself, with his head hitting the ground first and then his guys flying out. Just wanted your opinion.

Also what do you think of 1 Corinthians 15:5. He appeared to “the twelve”. Obviously at that point Judas was dead, right? Maybe the name of their clique was “the twelve” even though they were missing a member? Though I know you aren’t a Catholic, why do you think their Bible says Jesus appeared to “the eleven”. I almost fell out of my chair when I read that in my daughter’s Bible.
