Fortunately I am not religious

Social media and Gmail really do throw up some 'interesting' choices of adverts at times. This tshirt appeared today in my gmail adverts.

Fortunately I am in no way religious (but no issue with those that are) and so now that the temperature is due to be back in the 20's during the day and high teens overnight then Sunday means I can get back out there. Although there is possibly some truth in the 'wicked' part.

Enjoy the journey.

I don't get how they got from : The wicked flee though no one pursues,

but the righteous are as bold as a lion. To that t-shirt.

There is always a buck to be made....

'No servant can serve two masters, for either he will hate the one and love the other, or he will be devoted to the one and despise the other. You cannot serve God and money'

Matthew 16

I did Google for biblical quotes about t shirts but none were forthcoming :(

Surely this one???:

Don’t you realize that in a race everyone runs, but only one person gets the prize? So run to win! All athletes are disciplined in their training. They do it to win a prize that will fade away, but we do it for an eternal prize. So I run with purpose in every step. I am not just shadowboxing. I discipline my body like an athlete, training it to do what it should.

Okay.... but....

2 Samuel 22:33-34

"The God who has girded me with strength has opened wide my path. He makes my feet like the feet of a deer; he causes me to stand on the heights."

I didn't even understand it tho....all those double negatives.... :-)

Is there some "Bible in Street Language" equivalent?

There is a version of the bible called "The Message". It translates the original meaning of the text, rather than simply translating the words.

The wicked are edgy with guilt, ready to run off

even when no one’s after them;

Honest people are relaxed and confident,

bold as lions.
