No Scripture "Buts"

Biblejames

I was working on re-memorizing Romans 8:28-30 the other day when the thought hit me: We read verses like these, but respond with "Yeah, but..."

For example:

---
"God works out all things for the good of those who love Him..."

Yeah, but...

"Consider it pure joy, my brothers and sisters, when you encounter trials of many kinds..."

Yeah, but...

"We rejoice in sufferings because we know that suffering produces endurance..."

Yeah, but...

"I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me..."

Yeah, but...
---

I am trying to eliminate the "buts" in my Scripture reading and just simply say "Yeah!"
