Hebrews

For some reason, I woke up humming the happy little toon - "give me that old time religion." Until I remembered two verses.

"It was good for Paul and Silas." Let's see... it got them both imprisoned and at least one executed.

I'm not sure a happy little toon works. But the bigger problem is another verse.

"It was good for the Hebrew children." If the book of Hebrews has one message, it's this... "the old time religion (of the Hebrews) is not nearly as good as the new religion of Jesus Christ."
