I bought some cheap Chinese 2-way radios. The packaging has a big American flag and a "Designed in U.S.A." claim, which I suspect is bullshit given the company involved. Also, there are two Bible verses referenced. This smacks of pandering to a particular slice of conservative Americans. All I want is cheap radios for skiing with my kids next winter, not a reminder of my country's socio-political bullshit.
why bible verse on a box, its very out of place why not somewhere else.
It is out of place, but it's designed to pique human curiosity & get people to unwittingly Google Bible verses. Effortlessly spreading the gospel as they're told to, fulfilling the Great Commission.
If I was a troll, I'd start putting the weird ones on like Jeremiah 10:1-4 or Deuteronomy 22:9.
You’re right, but I googled the wrong thing and googled John 4:16, which is “Jesus said ‘Go call your husband […]’” (It says more, but search cut it off there.)
I had a solid guffaw because these boxes are for 2-way radios. Then I realized that I googled the wrong thing and lost interest in continued research.
John 4,16 is actually : "And so we know and rely on the love God has for us. God is love. Whoever lives in love lives in God, and God in them. "
But on the box the reference is actually 3,16:
"This is how we know what love is: Jesus Christ laid down his life for us. And we ought to lay down our lives for our brothers and sisters. "
And John 14,6:
"Jesus answered, I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me."
This is actually 1 John 3:16 (from the letters of John). John 3:16 (from the gospel according to) is actually:
(Arguably the most famous new testament quote besides "Jesus wept".)
