Whistle Blower Wrote:Like any book, the bible has a beginning, a middle and an end. In the beginning God created, soon after that mankind rebelled (Gen 3), in the middle of the book Jesus comes from heaven as the promised Saviour for all who will trust in Him alone for Salvation. At the end He will return to judge the world and take back to heaven His true Church. This is the larger context that the bible must be read in.
May i ask, how is it that one comes to the conclusion of the context of a book in general? I.e. what tells you in this instance that the Bible must be seen in that particular way?
