Two Bible Study Pointers to Help in “Rightly Dividing the Word”:

1. You can’t know the whole counsel of God if you don’t read the whole counsel of God. That means one of the disciplines in which you should engage as a disciple is to read the Bible regularly, cover to cover.
2. When you find an Old Testament quote in the New Testament, go back and read the quote in context in the Old Testament. Often the speaker or the writer is assuming that his original audience is familiar with the passage, and that they are making more “truth connections” as a result.  But for those of you who do this, how do you account for the fact that sometimes the New Testament quote seems very different from the Old Testament passage?
