Principles of Biblical Interpretation: Part 1 of 6

The Bible, God's Word, is the most important book that mankind possesses. No other book even comes close in importance, because the Bible contains revelation from God upon which the eternal destiny of every human depends. Yet the Bible is not always easy to understand. Written by approximately 40 authors over a span of nearly 1500 years, the 66 books of the Bible were written in varying cultures, languages, locations, and situations. Nonetheless, the Bible shows an amazing internal consistency that can only be explained as the result of God's own supervision of the writing process so that what ended up on the pages of Scripture is God's own word, expressed through human authors. In this six part course, we will examine the nature of Scripture, consider principles for correctly interpreting Scripture, and then work through the process of interpretation in three workshop sessions, examining numerous passages from the Bible. The three workshop sessions are also accompanied by a Q&A session recorded when the course was first presented to the Grace Christian Church in Manila, Philippines. If you want to understand Scripture, but you're not sure where to start, this course is for you. Enjoy, and my God bless your study of His priceless Word.
