Many of us use our writing as a means of sharing our
own spiritual journeys with others. We do this by writing sermons, Bible
studies, and/or devotions. It begins by wanting to share a word or thought that
God has first given us.
To make sure our teaching is of God, and not just from
us, we need to be sure we understand what the Bible is truly saying. Since the
Bible was written two thousand years ago, in three different languages, and for a different
culture or cultures, it’s more important that we try to determine what the
original writer was trying to get across. Fortunately, there are some tools to
help in our search for the Bible’s truths.
