2 Timothy 4:3-4 (King James Version) For the time will come when they will not endure sound doctrine; but after their own lusts shall they heap to themselves teachers, having itching ears; And they shall turn away their ears from the truth, and shall be turned unto fables.
Ever wonder why it is that the Bible changes over time? Of course that is not true. God’s Word remains constant. What changes are the eyes through which the scripture is viewed—the minds in which the scripture is interpreted. Does it make sense to us to consider the interpretation of generations of Christians gone by as being interpretations that have missed the mark? What makes us believe our generation knows better than they? Truth be told, there is much interpretation being done that is heavily influenced by selfish desire and societal influence. As we approach God’s Word, we must be willing to abandon all we think we know and discover His Truth as His Spirit would reveal it. We cannot let the world around us dictate how God’s Word should be understood; but we must let God’s Word be the measure by which we understand the world.
May God Bless you EXCEEDINGLY, ABUNDANTLY, ABOVE ALL YOU CAN ASK OR THINK!
