Okay so, a lot of my friends and family have been getting married, or moving, having house warming parties etc. So as a gift I give them a basket with some goodies and a Bible with a tract inside it. [bookmarking the Gospel of John]
About a month ago I bought a Bible, paying cash. And I had to sign my name saying that I understood what I was buying. [ Since I'm under 18]
Today, mom and I were shopping and it was easier for us both to get get rung up at the same time, she paid with her card, and when the cashier had the Bible in her hand, we had to give part of our address in order to purchase it!
Has anything like this happened to you? Please let me know. I'm not trying to get anyone's hackles up, but this just doesn't sit right. It's a Bible just a Bible. But I understand it is now considered hateful etc. in our culture.
Well anyway, Remember Jesus is on the Throne and He through His Gospel, Shall win the world!
Keep on keeping on, Matthew 28!
God bless
Yours in Christ,
Delanie Bee
I’ve been ill, I have to be sure I’m reading this right. You had to give personal info for buying a Bible?
No honey that hasn't happened to me. Last one I bought was a few months ago at a Walmart in Iowa. Weird tho.
Good Morning my lil sister Delaine 🐝, I have an idea for ya sweets are you by any chance shopping at a thrift store when you're buying these bibles? The reason why I'm asking is bcuz her in Lindenwold NJ which isn't far from you I'm guessing at our thrift stores they've been asking for our zip code. But the reason for this is bcuz they wanna see where most of the demographic is from that are shopping at their stores. Like are thee ppl from our town or outsiders....lol! But do ya get the jist of what I'm saying? Now if they started asking for your picture or for your whole address than I'd start rethinking about if I'm gonna continue to ship there.
Have you ever tried to shop at a Hobby lobby store? Bcuz they're a Christian family owned store & I'm sure that you'd be able to buy a bible there. I pray that what I said helps you with your issue. I love you Lil sister & like you said the Lord Jesus Christ Almighty is on the throne & he's got everything in order we've just got to continue the mission of Reach, Teach, Baptize!! Be blessed in Jesus name I pray, Amen🙏🏻✝️🛐🕊️🌈💪🏻 👑 🙌🏻 🤲🏻 ❤️🔥 🪖 🛡️ 🗡️ 🥾 📖 🪔
If it was your zip code it may just be a security thing for the card you purchased with. Other than that ive not had to give more of my address to purchase
No I have not had that happen but they probably have started doing that since I have bought one. Maybe they are tracking who buys one. I am not sure why part of the address do they not need the whole address I wonder. Praise God He is on the throne and I am so glad He is. Stay strong Delanie, God is good.
Love you sister♥️🦋
