Instead, we must approach the Bible from God’s viewpoint. What does it mean to know God through the Bible? It means to read and study it on its own terms and with its assumptions. That is, the Bible assumes that God is one God with three Persons; therefore, we read its pages with that assumption. The Bible assumes that Jesus came from the Father to become fully human and remain fully divine. Thus, it’s through that understanding that we read it. The Bible assumes that God created the universe and all humans; with that assumption, we read it. Therefore, God meets us as we read his Word. What do you believe about the Bible?
