The Work of the People shared some recent thoughts from NT Wright on how to read the “whole sweep of Scripture.”
Some really interesting points…
I think Wright is definitely on to something.
We don’t read letters from our friends by simply pulling out random sentences here or there.
We don’t read novels or books by simply jumping around reading random paragraphs from day to day. We’d miss the entire flow of the story.
So why do we (I) read Scriptures that way?
What do you think?
How do you read Scriptures on a regular basis?
Absolutely! Scripture is the best commentary on the Bible. Focusing on just a few verses often lead to heresy.
