The Bible is by far the best selling book of all time, but it is also the most misunderstood and misinterpreted. This is why Paul charged young Timothy with this:
“Be diligent to present yourself approved unto God as a worker who does not need to be ashamed, accurately handling the word of truth” (II Tim. 2:15, NASB).
Biblical interpretation is not to be left to the ivory towers of the Church, but each believer should equip themselves with the tools necessary to “accurately [handle] the word of truth.”
Last Sunday we spoke on the principle of “observation” in biblical interpretation and this Sunday we will explore “interpretation.” The final Sunday of this series will employ “application.”
