Hmm, if one is embarrassed by the Bible, from where is the embarrassment coming? Does the Word of God teach a set of moral principles that lead to embarrassment as a proper reaction to parts of that same Word? That’s a contradiction that cannot stand. So, from where does this embarrassment come? Or is that even the right term for it? Maybe the question is simply one of context. Maybe the whoredoms and such in Ezekiel 16, for example, aren’t quite right for the 1st grade Sunday School class, but are perfectly appropriate and necessary for adults to study. Not everything is “for the children”.

I think the stuff not “for children” is what Sister is speaking of. Don’t you think that some of this stuff that is not “for children” is embarrasing to some prudish adults?
