The Ohio Independent Baptist, April 1964

Ill. Note the context of the passage Perhaps the most important rule to remember is to consider the con– text of the Bible passage. It has often been aid that one can prove anything by the Bible. Of course, this is done by craftily taking a verse out of con– text and upplying it to circum tances which had nothing to do with the pas- age in :the first place. Therefore in order to correctly interpret ,a par– ticular Bible passage one must at all times consider that which precedes the verse and that which comes after i·t. Sometimes it is necessary to ignore the chapter divisions in or-der to clear– ly see a portion of Scripture in its context. Thought must also be given to the time, place and purpose for which the Scripture portion was orig– inally written. Without a doubt, the greatest help to the believer as he interprets Scrip– ture is received from the Holy Spirit as He illumines the heart and mind. He who inspired ho1y men of God to write the Bible can al o help be– lievers to understand it. There£ore, by forsaking the stumblingblocks, fol– lowing the rules of ,true Bible inter– pretation and seeking the enlighten– ment of the Holy Spirit, one will be well on his way toward understanding the nature of God and unlocking the secret of life itself.
