MY REPONSE TO BI101, THE
ENTIRE COURSE AS WHOLE HELPED OPEN MY EYES EVEN WORD AND DO A BETTER
JOB READING GODS WORD. HAS HELP ME TAKE HIS WORD AND GETT MORE
MEANING BY APPROACH IT AS AS TRYING TO FIND THE CCONTEXT OF IT AS A
WHOLE. THE THREE STEPS OF BIBLICAL INTERPERTATION MICHAEL HEISER
PRESENTED, WHAT DOES IT SAY? WHAT DOES IT MEAN? HOW DOES IT APPLY TO
ME? JUST APPLYING DOES THREE STEPS TO GODS WPRD WEATHER ITS IN BIBLE
STUDY WITH A GROUP OR MY OWN DEVOTIONAL TIME HAS HELP BRING IT TO A
BRIGHTER LIGHT AND HAS LIT A FIRE IN MY HEART THAT I HAVENT HAD IN A
WHILE. WHEN YOU UNDERSTAND GODS WORD AND INTERPERATED IT NAD STUDY IT
DEEPER JUST HELPS BRING AN UNDERSTANG AND CONFIDENCE IN THEN TURNS TO
BEING ABLE TO SHARE IT WITH OTHER MORE COMFORTABLY AND BE ABLE TO
GUIDE THEM THE SAME WAY MICHAEL HEISER HAS TAUGHT AND GUIDED US. HWNE
MICHAEL STATED FROM “SCRIPTURE IS TO BE USED FOR TEACHING IN
RIGHTOUSNESS, SO THAT TH MAN OF GOD MAY BE THOUGHTLY EQUIPPED FOR
EVERY GODS WORK” JUST THROUGH ME BACK IN MY CHAIR AT MY DESK. JUST
WORD RIGHTOUSNESS REMAINED ME THE RESPONSABLITY THAT COMES WITH GODS
WORD. IF NOT USED CORRECTLY AND FOR GODS PURPOSES THEN WHY YOU WANT
TO USE IT AT ALL. ALL THE GLORY GOES TO THE GOD IN ALL THINGS THAT WE
DO. HIS WORD IS PERFECT JUST THE WAY IT IS AND DOES NEED US TO
CORRECT IN ANY WAY. JUST HAVE TO DO OUR BEST TO UNDER STAND IT AND
USE IT FOR THE PURPOSE OF BUILDING HIS KINGDOM. THERE ARE STILL TIMES
I FIND MY SELF TRYING TO REINVENT THE WHEEL AND HAVE TO TAKE A STEP
BACK AND HUMBLE MY SELF.
ONE OF THE GOOD THINGS
ABOUT THE MOMENT OF TIME WE LIVE IS TECHNOLOGY. WE ALL NO THERE IS
PLENTY EVIL OR BAD THING THAT CAN DRIVE US DOWN A RABBIT HOLE OF WE
LET IT. BUT USED PROPERLY IT CAN BE AND AND AMAZING SORE OF SPREADING
GODS WORD OR FINDING RESOURSE TO HELP US WITH DEEPER DIVES IN HIS
WORD. LOGOS ALONE HAS SHOWED US MAIN RESOURSES WE HAVE AT THE CLICK
OF A BUTTON. PLUS THE UNLIMTED AMOUNT OF COMMENTARIES AND SERMONS AND
DEVOTIONAL THAT SCHOLARS FROM AROUND THE WORLD HAVE DONE. HAS BEEN A
HELP WHEN I GET STUCK. LIKE MICHAEL HEISER STATED DON'T GO AT IT
ALONE, AND LOOK UP ANYTHING THAT WE DONT FULLY UNDERSTAND. I KNOW I
USE TO COME ACROSS SOMETHING THAT I FELT CONFUSED OR COULDNT QUITE
GET WHAT WAS THE MEANING IF A TEXT AD WOULD JUST MOVE, AND TELL
MYSELF THE BIGGEST LIE THE WORLD OF ILL COME BACK TO IT. NOW I TAKE
THE TIME AND HIS PAUSE AND NOT LET MY PRIDE GET THE BEST OF ME AND
SURRENDER. I START PULLING OLD SERMONS FORM RIGHTOUS PASTORS, DIVE
DEEPER INTO MY GROWING SELECTIONS OF BOOKS AFTER RELIZING YOU CANT
HAVE TO MANY BOOK ON HOW TO INTERPET SCRIPTURE. MAKE TAKE THIRTY
MINUTES OR A COUPLE HOURS BUT I MAKE SURE I FULLY UNDERSTAND WHAT IS
BEING SAID TO THE BEST OF MY ABILITIES. I HAVE ALSO SAT WITH MY
MENTOR AND PASTOR AND GONE OVER SCRIPTURE TO MAKE I AM UNDERSTANING
IT PROPELY. STUDYING ALONG WITH THOSE THAT HAVE WENT THROUGH THE
PROCESS HAS HELP A LOT AND JUST SHOWED ME ITS OK TO ASK FOR HELP AND
GO LOOK AT THER THE SOURCES INSTEAD OF STARING AT THE BIBLE OR INTO
SPACE THING THE ANSWER IT GOT HIT ME OUT OF NO WERE WITHOUT PUTTING
FORTH ANY EFFORT OF MY OWN. JUST VERY THANKFUL TO LOGOS FOR PROVIDING
JUST A GREAT PLATFORM TO BE ABLE TO STUDY AT YOUR OWN AND MICHAEL
HEISER FOR BREAKING DOWN A HERMENEUTICS AND THE SCIENCE OF IT ALL. A
WORD I NVER HEARD OF COULDN'T PRONOUCE BEFORE THIS EVEN IF I TRIED MY
HARDEST. JUST THE WAY HE MADE THE COURSE FEEL SO SIMPLE, DETAIL BUT
AS WELL KEEPING YOUR ATTENTION AN MAKING ME WANT TO LEARN MORE. JUST
SHOWING US AS WELL THAT READING IS NOT SEEING AND BEING ABLE TO SEE
AND UNDERSTAND THE CONTEXT OF THE WORD THAT HAS BEEN THE ALL ALONG.
NOW I CAN SAY I A BETTER EQUPPIED MAN OF GOD.
I AM FOREVER GRATEFUL TO
MICHAEL HEISER AND LOGOS FOR THEIR TIME AND TOOLS THEY HAVE PROVIDED
FOR US. AND WILL ALWAYS REMEMBER “CONTEXT IS KING”
GOD BLESS -
