Hi everyone. To the readers of this site: welcome to my corner of the internet where I plan to document some aspects of my Christian walk and serious study of the Holy Bible, God’s word, in accordance with that. I am a professing believer in the inspiration and preservation of the words of God which he gave to us in the Old and New Testament for our benefit. It is the evening of November 2 2019, and I’d like to record my design and my aim for this site. This place is intended to be a repository of study materials, source documentation, and of good faith Biblical interpretation under the rule of 2 Peter 1:20—
Knowing this first, that no prophecy of the scripture is of any private interpretation.
If we bear this fact in mind always, it will protect us from the relativism and bad faith conversation happening around us. The pursuit of the truth actually matters. What you say might have a gripping effect on your hearers which you’ve convinced, but if it is false then it is objectively false. The truth, that is God’s word, ultimately prevails. It must be discovered. It must be carefully sought out. And this is what we want to get behind, not to create our own “truth(s)”. And as the Psalmist said:
The LORD is nigh unto all them that call upon him, to all that call upon him in truth.1Psalm 145:18.
I am sure that I will get more chances to delineate this specifically and other central ideas as time allows for me to do and as the Lord will enable me to do. More definitions to follow. I expect at some point to emplace ground rules but as of now I am simply claiming the ability for myself to change the rules as I see fit. As the owner, I wish you all the best and thanks for spreading the word.
