Biblical illiteracy has reached epidemic proportions even within the sanctuary of God's church. In a recent survey, many Americans were convinced that Joan of Arc was Noah's wife and the Epistles were the spouses of the Apostles. Most have no clue that the Bible contains 66 books in 3 languages spanning 1400 years. Ten out of ten people cannot even find the book of Hezekiah . . . and if you wonder why, you might just be part of the problem. Our airwaves are littered with misinformation about the Bible and no small dose of outright heresy. What's worse, most Christ followers have little ability to distinguish truth from error because they are only vaguely familiar with the Word of God. If the Bible really is the revelation of God, this appalling ignorance will inevitably have detrimental effects on the Church. How will Christians discover and implement their spiritual gifts if they are not grounded in the Word? How will beleaguered spiritual warriors send the enemy into retreat apart from the Sword of Scripture? How will shepherds feed their flocks without the meaty doctrines of the Bible? Our assemblies are bloated with the cotton candy of pop-psychology that so tickles itching ears. We have mastered the mass assembly with seeker-sensitive sermons and clever marketing strategies. Don't get me wrong, this is fantastic progress for evangelism. And frankly, if one had to choose between evangelism and edification, one should prioritize lost sheep over emaciated sheep every time. At the same time, there is no necessary reason for making such a choice given the informational and technological advances the Lord has graciously put at our disposal. That's what this book is all about. We want to offer you the methods of interpretation through technologically available information. In other words, this book will give you a college-level course in How to Interpret the Bible using nothing but your own Bible and free internet resources.
