I went to a small, Christian liberal arts college and took it upon myself to have a Bible verse ministry. I used to print Bible verses on index cards and plaster them all over the place - mainly in the bathrooms in my own dorm. I would put them inside the bathroom stalls and in the dressing room stalls and later in various places around the dorm. Girls would frequently come and ask me to put a new verse up because they had memorized the one in their stall...I worked at the Cougar Den (on-campus fast food) so I thought why not put Scripture verses on the bathroom walls there too. So I put them in the ladies restroom easily enough and decided to brave the men's room when it was my turn to clean it (ewww). It was cleaned during time when guys could feasibly walk in, so we always worked quickly. One day I put several verses up in the bathroom stall, by the mirror and over the urinal.
One day a male friend asked me if I hung some verses in the men's room and I told him that I did and he said, "You need to remove the one over the urinal." I couldn't imagine why... Then I went to check and nearly had heart failure when I read the verse... 1 Corinthians 15:58 - "Therefore, my dear brothers, stand firm. Let nothing move you. Always give yourselves fully to the work of the Lord, because you know that your labor in the Lord is not in vain."
Some Scriptures especially need to be taken in the correct context...Needless to say, I removed that verse and replaced it with another....
