I have read a lot of posts, many from people who don't know what they're talking about.
Your statement -- "anyone can be religious and memorize verses. That does not produce spiritual transformation -- Understanding those verses is what the Lord wants to see" is just the opposite." -- is right on; truly accurate and meaningful.
David essentially said he hid His Word in his heart so that he may not sin against God (See: Psalms 119:11). Most do not like that verse these days. Most are pushing the idea that they are saved by having a belief alone on Jesus and no sin can separate them from God. They are not really concerned about living holy unto the Lord. Therefore whole swafs of Scripture must either be altered or ignored. At least that is my observation from visiting churches and talking on various different Christian forums online for the past 10 years.
