Scripture in Context

"Scripture in Context" means understanding the Bible’s words by considering the historical, cultural, and literary circumstances in which they were written. This approach helps us interpret the text accurately, recognizing what the original audience might have understood and how the message applies today. It involves looking at related texts, the authors’ intent, and the cultural background to avoid misunderstandings. Essentially, it’s about reading Scripture thoughtfully, respecting its richness and complexity, so we can gain deeper insight into its spiritual truths and how they speak across different times and situations.
