Theology On Tap- Episode 204: Five Keys to Interpreting the Bible - a podcast by Theology On Tap

Five Keys to Interpreting the Bible:

1. All Scripture is the inspired, inerrant word of God - not just the stuff we like.

2. All of Scripture is centered on Christ.

3. The mission of God (Missio Dei) is evident in every book of the Bible.

4. All of Scripture's passages have one of two possible messages: Law or Gospel.

• Law: statements tell us what to do


• For our own good – so that life might go well for us


• For the good of our neighbor – so that life might go well for our neighbor


• To eventually remind us that we don’t won’t can’t perfectly follow His laws


• To make it clear what the consequences are for that disobedience.

• Gospel: What He does to restore our relationships with Him

5. The best way to understand how to apply that Bible to your life today is to understand what it meant to the first writers/hearers.
