Well, do you?

Well, do you? Either Jesus is your ultimate authority or something else is? You will either review the Scriptures thru the eyes of Jesus or thru other eyes that are more authoritative in your eyes then Jesus. You can’t serve two ultimate authorities!

Either you have modern day man 2000 years removed from Jesus as your ultimate authority as to your understanding of Scripture both Old and New Testaments or you have Jesus. “He that is not with me is against me; and … Continue reading Well, do you?

When better practiced in our Lord’s words

Augustine 400 AD “And by letters I notified thy bishop, the holy man Ambrose, of my former errors and my present resolution. And I asked his advice as to which of Thy books it was best for me to read so that I might be the more ready and fit for the reception of so great a grace. He recommended Isaiah the prophet; and I believe it was because Isaiah foreshows more clearly than others the gospel, and the calling of the Gentiles. But because I could not understand the first part and because I imagined the rest to be … Continue reading When better practiced in our Lord’s words

The OT should be understood in light of the NT

To Biblically understand the Old Testament you need to rightly understand the New Testament! To understand the Old Testament ignoring the New Testament is fine but it’s not Biblical! To properly represent what the Bible says about the Old Testament one must not ignore the New Testament or one will only be understanding an incorrect understanding of the Old Testament and thus an incorrect understanding of the Bible. “The woman saith unto him, I know that Messias cometh, which is called Christ: when he is come, he will tell us all things. Jesus saith unto her, I that speak unto … Continue reading The OT should be understood in light of the NT
