    3. The Need and Goal of Interpretation

    Accurately handing the Bible is drawing out the text’s God intended meaning. This is why expository preaching and expository reading of Scripture must be the primary diet of the Christian and the church because God did not reveal himself through bunch of random truisms or isolated statements. Proof texts are often wielded in a way that ignores their context or are used as spring boards to say “true things” that the text does not address. Failing to properly interpret Scripture will result in a failure to distinguish the voice of God from the voice of men.

    2. The Organic Structure, Shape, and Scope of Scripture part 1

    Scripture is the progressive unfolding of the unified and intertwined historical story of redemption- seed to tree (promise to fulfillment / shadow to substance/ type to antitype with Jesus Christ as the center. If we fail to understand the organic unity and centrality of Christ in Scripture, then we will err greatly in our interpretation of Scripture.
