I used to dismiss that view until I had a look at Max Lucado's study/devotional Bible. It has a bunch of marginal notes through out the text. I was blown away when thumbed by 1 Cor 12 and a full page had been inserted with his "devotional" that prepared the mind to accept the idea of denominational unity.
Talk about your basic Rev 22:18-19 problem.
Now I just look for plain Bibles when I shop for one.
