Episode 148: Reading the Bible in C.O.N.T.E.X.T.S. (eXplanation)

Christ, Culture, & Coffee

Words are important when it comes to interpreting our Bibles. As we con tin in our bible study methods series, we are looking at the eXplanation of words in this episode. A great method for studying Scripture is to conduct word studies for the passages you are diving into. A word study helps us to understand the definitions/range of meaning of a word, and through looking at the context of the passage, we can see which definition is being used. This method will help ensure that we do not load our theological baggage onto a word and then read our presupposed doctrines into the text. The goal of good bible study methods is to understand what Scripture says and take from Scripture our doctrines and our practices. We hope this episode will teach you a new skill and that you will implement it in your Bible Study.
