**In general I hear far more scripture in the Catholic church each Sunday than I ever heard in a Baptist or other similar church growing up.**

BTTT!

Someone finally posts the truth!

Someone finally posts the truth!

Truth for that one person, maybe, and could have had a lot to do with his age and attention span rather than quantity of Bible teaching. It's certainly NOT the truth in my experience. It took a Southern Baptist Sunday school teacher opening the Bible to John 10:27-30 and letting me read it for myself (for the very first time!) that led me to saving faith in Jesus Christ. Here's what I read:

My sheep hear my voice, and I know them, and they follow me: And I give unto them eternal life; and they shall never perish, neither shall any man pluck them out of my hand. My Father, which gave them me, is greater than all; and no man is able to pluck them out of my Father's hand. I and my Father are one.

The Holy Spirit opened my eyes to the truth of the glorious gospel of the grace of God. I wonder if that passage is ever included in the Catholic Church's liturgy these days?

And you know this how?

What do you know about how much Scripture the average Protestant church reads on Sunday?
