Understanding the Bible (Lunch Hour Class)
Dr. Matt Sanders
CLV250, Online Only
CBS/CMM: Skills
Do you see the Gospel on every page, in every verse of the Bible? Are you even looking? If we are to study the Bible properly, we need to grasp this principle – the Gospel is proclaimed throughout the Bible. We must start all Bible interpretation by looking at what each verse says about the Gospel. Many Christians misinterpret Scripture because they do not approach it this way. Others believe in a partial gospel because they do not see the full teaching of Scripture. We will use the book Gospel-Centered Teaching by Trevin Wax to help us understand how to approach Scripture properly, which will help enrich our understanding of God’s Word, more fully understand the gospel, and become better able to teach the truth proclaimed within.
