But, It Says...
Are you looking for clarity and a better understanding of God’s word? God desires all men to be saved, but He also desires we come to the knowledge of the truth (1 Timothy 2:4). Walk with me as I dig into God’s word in manageable bites, allowing the Bible to define and explain itself, holding true to the inspiration, sufficiency, and final authority of every word. It’s highly encouraged that you listen to the episodes in order as we build, precept upon precept, our biblical understanding from the foundation laid in the beginning. Welcome!

But, It Says....Bible Study Bites
Let's keep in mind a few rules of hermeneutics (how to interpret the Bible):
1. Let the Bible define and explain itself.
2. Let the plain, straightforward verses inform the more difficult ones.
3. Context, context, context. The verses before and after tell us why something is being stated, so let's not ignore those.
4. See if "First Use" of a word in the Bible or the specific book defines the word for later understanding.
