Helping preachers to proclaim, and all Christians to hear, the transforming Word of God
posted by Milton Stanley at 7:59 PM
Don't be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind so that you may be able to determine what God's will is -- what is proper, pleasing, and perfect. - Rom. 12:2

Linking to a given site doesn't mean I necessarily agree with everything it says. And since this is a blog, not a sermon, I'm not being fastidious about qualifying every post. If you're a preacher of the Word, you ought to be able to separate the wheat from the chaff. If you want to see what I believe and preach, go to my sermons page:

I am in total agreement, and encourage anyone doing a lay study of the Bible to check out Gordon Fee's How to Read the Bible for All It's Worth.
On the other hand, how many seminary students graduate without ever read the Bible from start to finish without first reading it through the grid of this system or that system? That's the other side of that problem.
Right you are, Matt. And thanks for the recommendation of Fee's book.

I agree that one should use all the tools and intellect available when studying scripture. But those tools and intellect must be enlightened by the Holy Spirit or they will be worthless. I believe a uneducated layman can interpret the scripture under the guidance of the Holy Spirit better than a well educated yet non-Spirit-filled theologian. See the Apostles in Acts vs the theologians of the day including Saul prior to Damascus road.
Very good and valid point, IH. That's the other side of the story, isn't it?!
