[geoff]

God's Word is not vague. we can only understand the Word so much by ourselves. thats when you pray to God for understanding and thats why there is a need for church. SOME men are annointed by God and chosen by Him to preach His word

I'd disagree. Taking your earlier verse of Romans 10:14 into the entirety within context... it doesn't imply that only a few are chosen to ministry, simply stating that if there isn't someone to preach it, no one will hear it... (tree falling and if there is no one around to hear it, does it make a sound?)

I'd personally change your statement to:

Romans 6:28-39

Romans 8:30 (of course it touches on the two different value systems in Christianity - Calvinism vs Arminianism - neither of which really matters in my opinion... would it really change your life in either situation?)
