In this episode, Pastor Ken teaches us that there is no such thing as a pure, unadulterated Bible. All Scripture, when we are reading it, seeking to understand it, and certainly to apply it to our lives and the lives of others in the local church, is to interpret Scripture. There are two options. One is to submit to the interpretations of Scripture by men, and the other is to choose or select or submit to Scripture itself.

00:00:00 Hey guys, real quick, before we get started, I have a small request.
00:00:03 If you've been blessed by our content and you like this show,
00:00:06 would you take just a brief moment and leave us a five-star review?
00:00:09 This is quite possibly the most effective thing that you can do
00:00:12 to ensure that this content gets out to as many people as possible. Thanks.
00:00:19 Jesus said, man cannot live on bread alone,
00:00:22 but from every word that proceeds from the mouth of God.
00:00:25 You're listening to Daily Truth.
00:00:30 Some of us, maybe we haven't verbalized this, maybe it's not something that is conscious in our minds,
00:00:35 but at least, at minimum, subconsciously, we act as though there is this dichotomy.
00:00:40 There are two viable options.
00:00:43 One of them is to submit to the interpretations of Scripture by men,
00:00:47 and then the other is to choose or select or submit to the pure, unadulterated Scripture in and of itself.
00:00:56 Now, if those are the two options, then certainly, ten times out of ten, I would choose the latter.
00:01:02 Certainly, I would want to choose the pure, unadulterated Word of God over the interpretations of man.
00:01:09 But that's naive. 0.99
00:01:11 It's ignorant at best and arrogant at worst, 0.97
00:01:13 because at the end of the day, there is no way to bypass an interpretation of Scripture. 0.97
00:01:21 All Scripture, when we are reading it, seeking to understand it,
00:01:24 and certainly to apply it to our lives and the lives of others in the local church is to interpret
00:01:31 Scripture. The options that we have set before us is not merely to choose or submit or recognize
00:01:38 the interpretation of Scripture by men or to choose the unadulterated Scripture itself. Rather,
00:01:45 the option is to submit to the interpretations throughout the witness of 2,000 years of church
00:01:50 history as the church led by the Holy Spirit has been interpreting scripture for two millennia
00:01:55 or to submit to our own personal interpretation of scripture. See, when a pastor gets up and
00:02:02 preaches and says, I'm not going to use Calvin and I'm not going to use so-and-so and I'm not
00:02:06 going to use this or that or he or she, I'm going to give you the pure unadulterated Bible. Well,
00:02:13 unless he merely quotes the scripture and then prays and sits down, he did not give you the pure
00:02:19 unadulterated Bible. He gave you an interpretation of Scripture, but rather than giving you a faithful
00:02:25 interpretation of Scripture offered by several people, millions of people, in fact, over 2,000
00:02:30 years of church history, he decided to give you his interpretation. Thanks so much for listening,
00:02:35 but real quick, before you go, do us a small favor, take a moment, and leave us a five-star
00:02:41 review if you enjoyed the show. This is undoubtedly the best way that you can help us get this
00:02:47 biblically faithful content to as many people as possible. Thanks so much.
