📖 **DON’T JUST READ A VERSE—READ THE CONTEXT!**
In **STUDYING A BIBLICAL PASSAGE IN CONTEXT — PART 3**, we continue learning how to interpret Scripture accurately rather than making the Bible say what we want it to say.
This week, we focus on two important principles:
3️⃣ **Interpret the Bible according to the purpose and plan of each book.** Why was the book written? Who was the original audience? What was the author trying to communicate?
4️⃣ **Interpret every verse according to its context.** Read what comes **before and after** the verse. A verse removed from its context can easily be misunderstood—or completely misrepresented.
🔥 **Context matters!** Before asking, “What does this verse mean to me?” we must first ask, **“What did this verse actually mean?”**
🎥 Watch **PART 3** and learn how to become a more careful student of God’s Word!
