The art of biblical interpretation: Inspiration and unity
- John McClean •
- 24 July 2015
We’ve looked at the implications of the doctrine of inspiration for reading the Bible. Since the Bible is God’s word, we don’t read it ‘just like any other book’. We reverence it as we revere God. We can’t understand the Bible without knowing the Author. We receive every part of the Bible as God’s word, no picking and choosing. This final discussion of inspiration focuses on the unity of the Bible.

Redefining marriage

Amidst all the sound and fury about same-sex marriage, it’s often hard to find a straight-forward, clear, thoughtful Christian defence of what marriage is. Sandy Grant has had a crack, and a very good one, in this recent public lecture at St Michael’s Wollongong.
The reluctant Swedish reader
- Carl Matthei •
- 23 May 2015
I am a reluctant convert to the Swedish Method for Bible study. I read the Briefing article all of those years ago and decided to try it out in a couple of Bible study groups. It didn’t work! It didn’t seem to make group members think deeply enough about the passage, and it seemed to promote surface-level easy answers.
