Don't Confuse Me With the Facts: A Source to Basic Bible Study

by Desmond Allen

The objective of personal Bible study is not the memorization of factoids to ensure a Bible trivia championship, but to study for application and obedience. Although Bible knowledge abounds, we are in the midst of a theological famine. Radio and TV programs, books and more books litter our airwaves and bookshelves, but theology has given way to a peculiar egocentric methodology of interpretation. Christians are reading their Bibles, but do they truly understand what they read? We cannot apply what we do not fully understand and it is counter productive to apply what we misunderstand. Biblical interpretation requires accurate historic and theological analysis. Merely reading these ancient, sacred passages and leaping to some manufactured personal application is a leap of ignorance. It is for this reason that Paul instructed Timothy to train other teachers of the faith who could also train others. This book will not tell you what the Bible says, but it will provide the necessary tools to determine that for yourself.
