Have you ever been told you’re cherry-picking scripture? This is when you don’t buy someone else’s interpretation of the bible, they tell you you’re cherry-picking. We’ve been told this many times, and I’m pretty sure you have been too.
It’s when we won’t lay down our verses and replace them with their verses—the ones they’ve cherry-picked and thrown at us!
It’s when we don’t buy into the church’s interpretation-du-jour, because it doesn’t sit well with us, even if don’t know why. So basically, if you don’t agree, then you’re cherry-picking.
It’s a cute little phrase, huh? They say it like it’s a bad thing.
Let’s talk all about cherry-picking. Uh yes, yum… I love cherries!
