Hi, this is John, and today on Theocast, Justin and I are going to talk about interpreting God's Word.
Do we just need Jesus and the Bible to fully understand everything that God has revealed to us?
Our systems, confessions, and creeds bad?
Do they influence negatively?
And is it safe to say that we can actually read God's Word without having a system?
We are going to explain what biblical theology is and what the history of Christianity has believed throughout time about interpreting God's Word.
And in our members' podcast, we talk about how all of Scripture is Christian Scripture, including the Old Testament.
Some thoughts on dispensational theology, and how your system of interpreting God's word will affect your assurance.
We hope you enjoy.
