A Blessing to Me

recently has been this free hermeneutics class offered by Twin City Fellowship.
I've taken many Bible classes, but never until now have I had training in how to carefully, correctly study the Bible on my own. In this ten-part study, Pastor Ryan Habbena's lessons (in mp3 format) instruct reverently and understandably in Biblical interpretation.
The all-encompassing principle that I've been smitten with through this course is how careful I must be in handling God's precious written Word. No other book is Divinely inspired; yet no other book has been subject to such sloppy interpretation and application by human readers-- including me. It's a predominant notion that when reading the Scripture, one can treat it like any other piece of literature; read it, discuss it, and come to a consensus on what everyone thinks it means. But what I or any other mortal thinks it means is irrelevant. What the Author meant is crucial. The Bible deserves meticulous, humble study led by the Holy Spirit to determine the Author's message and how it should be applied.
My love for God's Word has been renewed and my approach to studying it has been reformed by the online hermeneutics class from Twin City Fellowship's website. I encourage anyone to check it out at http://www.twincityfellowship.com/hermeneutics.php.
