Three Questions You Need to Ask When Reading Scripture
Written by David Zook

One of the things we try to accomplish with this blog is to help people walk with Jesus.  We write about how to think about God, how to reflect his image, and how to convey his word.  We help people think through sticky, sometimes controversial theological concepts, learn a thing or two about discipleship and what it means to worship God.

One of the things that we haven't touched on yet is how we interpret Scripture.  Since Scripture is the basis on God's special revelation, it would be important to learn how to rightly divide his word.

I ran across this blog post that helps us do that very thing.  The author of the blog, Justin Taylor, asked Gerald Bray who is a Research Professor at Beeson Divinity School at Samford University, and director of research for the Latimer Trust, which questions do we need to ask when looking at a biblical text.

His response is found here.

May his answers enlighten and encourage you as your explore the pages of Scripture.
