Subject: A Universal Answer to Bible questions. |
Bible Note: A UNIVERSAL ANSWER to satisfy most Bible questions. Many, if not most, of the questions posted here could be answered by the questioner himself/herself, using the following principles: 1) Use a concordance to look it up in the Bible. 2) Read your Bible. 3) Be willing to obey every teaching you find; it is God speaking to you. 4) Use an English dictionary. 5) Use a Bible dictionary. 6) By all means, look up the center column (cross) references in your Bible. 7) Remember that: We must compare Scripture with Scripture in order to understand its full and proper sense. And SINCE THE BIBLE DOESN'T CONTRADICT ITSELF, ANY INTERPRETATION OF A SPECIFIC PASSAGE THAT CONTRADICTS THE GENERAL TEACHING OF THE BIBLE IS TO BE REJECTED. 8) Respect the silence of the Bible regarding any issue/question on which the Bible is silent. In other words, avoid speculation. 9) Christ has given to the church pastors and teachers. 10) One need not re-invent the wheel. Don't be too proud to consult translations, commentaries and God-given pastors and teachers. |
