Theme: "How to understand, interpret, and apply the Bible!"

If you desire to know more about God and His Word, this study is very important and life changing! God’s people need to diligently search the scriptures in the proper way.

The way to build our faith (Rom 10:17) and persevere in the faith is to feast on the Word of God! Unless you know how to understand and interpret the Bible, you will be greatly hindered from the growth God desires for you in your Christian walk.

The writer of Hebrews scolded believers for not understanding the deeper things of God (Heb 5:11-14). As believers, we need to take heed to God’s Word and grow in grace and knowledge (Eph 1:17-19). This class is designed to encourage believers in the Word and give them the tools they need to understand and apply the Word in their lives.

Bible Study Series Topics:
Basic tools for interpretation - What we can understand - Why we must understand - The difference it makes - Applying the Bible to our lives - Interpreting the OT vs. the NT - How to interpret prophecy - How to understand symbolism - Interpreting parables - Interpreting allegories & types
