Single Verse Conferences Spreading Like Wildfire

Inspired by the upcoming John 3:16 Conference (click here), many other religious groups have decided to hold single-verse meetings within the next year.

The purpose of these various conferences appears to be to take one bible verse out of context and then use it to support what the group already believes. Some groups are rallying around their verse of focus, while others are trying to destroy their chosen verse. What each group is trying to accomplish should be obvious.

TBNN encourages you to sign up and cheer for the conference that best fits what you already believe. Some people will, of course, want to attend multiple gatherings.
