The apostle Paul in one of his letters to his dear friend Timothy said,
Do your best to present yourself to God as one approved,[a] a worker who has no need to be ashamed, rightly handling the word of truth.
Even though this charge was given specifically to Timothy, it is fair to say that it applies to all believers, especially those in leadership. It is imperative that we learn how to correctly interpret the word of a God to avoid falling into grave errors. Many cults started because someone misinterpreted the word of God. In the lecture below , the late Dr Norman Geisler offers some very practical ways to study the bible and I will strongly exhort you to watch the video in its entirety.
My name is Tayib Salami and I started Tayibs.com for the sole purpose of exploring difficult questions about the Christian faith that most of us shy away from. In 2017, I entered a very dark time in my life and it’s only by the grace of the Living God that I’m still alive today. It led me to really go deeper in my faith and consider a myriad of questions that I never thought about asking myself or others before. Welcome and enjoy the ride with me.
