doulos,
I remember getting assaulted at a Christian book store for looking at an NIV.
I was once "assaulted" by a lady in a Christian bookstore when I asked her, "What is this new 'Spirit filled' Bible translation that you are having embossed?" (I was at the time having two new NKJV Bibles embossed for my son and daughter.)
She then started telling me about all the miracles and healings she had done, and forcefully <img src="/forum/images/graemlins/bash.gif" alt="" /> demanded to know if I had been "baptized in the Spirit". Before I could even say "been there, done that", she was insisting that I go with her to her car so that she could give me "literature".
When I (after taking a breath) said "No thank you I'm Reformed", she thought for only a second and said "What's that?" As I thought for moment for a reply to such a demanding and not so simple question, she walked off in a huff saying, "I only read the words in red."
I didn't, but to this day wish I had written a couple of verses in red for her to most likely ignore and throw away.
The verses that came to mind were Matthew 7:21-23.

Roms 3:22-24
