Things That Aren't In The Bible...

[Digging4Truth]

This coming Sunday I am teaching on "study to shew thyself approved" in my Sunday School class.

I am going to start off with a little worksheet that I am going to draw up with what will probably seem like simple questions. The things on the worksheet are things that we have all taken for granted as true because of what's been passed down and yet these things are actually not even in the Bible.

A few examples...

Who all was there when Jesus was born? People will often list the wise men... but they actually came a few years later.

How many wise men were there? People will often say three... we don't know. The Bible never says.

My apologies that both examples revolve around the birth of Christ... it's just early and that's the only two I could think of.

But that is the reason for this thread as well...

Can you come up with some other assumptions that people tend to run with that actually aren't in the Bible? It would be a great help in making up my worksheet.
