Many Christians have never learned how to process and apply what they read in Scripture correctly. If the Bible is the Word of the living God to His image-bearers on earth, not knowing how to read and understand it presents a significant problem. It is this kind of biblical illiteracy that has led to the development of many scriptural mishandlings and dangerous teachings throughout the Church’s history. In light of this, a few critical questions begin to emerge: What am I to do? How can I be confident when studying the Bible? How do I ensure that I handle God’s Word rightly? The answer is found in the faithful application of a reliable and accurate interpretive method.
