Review - Why hermeneutics (science of bible interpretation) - Faithfully defend the faith - Contend for the faith - Prepare for discipleship/teaching - Enable correct self interpretation of scripture - Equip others
Review - Bible : - Is objective - Follows fixed interpretation rules - All scripture is part of one whole message - Exegesis = extract from bible - Eisegesis = read into bible
CONTEXT: - Consider author, audience, time/issue addressed - Eisegesis leads to multiple meanings of a passage - Examples of abused scriptures . . . . - Overall context of Bible : Luke 24:25-27
PRACTICAL ADVICE: - Don't read Bible as textbook - Bible addresses heart, not just knowledge - Seek Christ, not facts about him - Don't read Bible as magic book - Don't read Bible as rule book - Don't read multiple purposes into Bible - Read as if God has something to say
