bro, the rabbit hole is pretty deep
sounds the alars =]
alarms
so, you dont see a problem with the bible being used for both sides?
What's esiogesis and exegesis?
your meaning vs intended meaning
eisogesis is like bouncing ideas off verses to gather meaning, exegesis is understanding scripture as it is written and the culture it was written to, and the original meaning
both are important
Both sound flawed
if it can used to justify any position then what makes you think you interpretation of the bible is correct
i believe the way i understand the bible fits exegetically
i will tell you how i feel about things like the authors intended meaning and trying to study that and sticking to it. It doesnt really matter what the author meant to say. All that matters is what people get out of it. If the author did a good enough job then people will get what the author intended. However, everyone is differnt they see things differnt. So if you get something differnt out of it. So what, its your personal views
again, thats a general statement not just aimed at the bible
i believe the bible, as its written, and as the holy spirit leads me
and let it lead you how you think it does, but you cant be surprised when someone differnt from you sees the bible saying much differnt things
As the holy spirit leads you seems like you allow your own baises to lead your reading
again, eisogesis should be in line with exegesis
but it isnt
it wont be
it was written 2000 years ago, people are differnt
you dont understand so it cant be, is that your arguement?
no, my arguement is that its a written text and people view things differently and sometimes in a contradictory way.
so its impossible to have a one size fits all aproach
which is what you are saying
^^^
i said before everyone has a very personal relationship with Jesus Christ
which would be a reason why a text cant fit everyone
so it doesnt have a particular intrepretation
cant fit and agree with everyone
[1 John 2:27]
yes what fluff said. There cant be one solid definit meaning
everyone gets differnt meanings from it
[1 peter 3:18]
does that have more than 1 meaning?
how can we know?
good answer
how can we know the "true" meaning of it if everyone is gonna have a different interpretattion
i bet i can easily come up with multiple meanings for that
