It isn't uninteresting, just poorly attended.

We all have a turnout problem: it's just because we are in early August, don't worry too much.

[Cincinnatus]

2Th 3:10    For even when we were with you, we gave you this rule: "If a man will not work, he shall not eat."

2Th 3:11    We hear that some among you are idle. They are not busy; they are busybodies.

2Th 3:12    Such people we command and urge in the Lord Jesus Christ to settle down and earn the bread they eat.

2Th 3:13    And as for you, brothers, never tire of doing what is right.

2Th 3:14    If anyone does not obey our instruction in this letter, take special note of him. Do not associate with him, in order that he may feel ashamed.

2Th 3:15    Yet do not regard him as an enemy, but warn him as a brother.

I'm going to try and keep points small this survivor, instead of crazy (10-5) voting numbers.  Eventually, the final should consist of NT/OT, so two groups are made. 

In the case of a tie, the book with the most votes from the previous round only, will be eliminated.

Our first task, eliminating NT books.  We will eliminate only NT books for several rounds. 

The voting structure will be as follows; You will make the following eliminate votes for 3 Books (3-2-1).  You will have one vote to keep a book.  We will eliminate 3 NT Books.

[Cincinnatus]

Gal 3:25    Now that faith has come, we are no longer under the supervision of the law.

Gal 3:26    You are all sons of God through faith in Christ Jesus,

Gal 3:27    for all of you who were baptized into Christ have clothed yourselves with Christ.

Gal 3:28    There is neither Jew nor Greek, slave nor free, male nor female, for you are all one in Christ Jesus.

Gal 3:29    If you belong to Christ, then you are Abraham's seed, and heirs according to the promise.

I like how everybody is voting out the non-Gospel New Testament first.  As they should, of course.
