Welcome to Look Into The Bible

Welcome to my blog;  “Look Into The Bible”.  Here you will find my thoughts, comments and understandings of what I believe is revealed in Scripture and how such relates to us as a people and, of course, as individuals.

Many will think my views a bit unorthodox, and so they might well be.   Some people will think I am dead wrong in many of my interpretations, that too could be a real possibility.   And, of course, some will feel I am spot on — at least on occasion.   But I truly hope no one will ever think I am presenting something I don’t rationally and honestly think is the biblical truth.

There is an immense amount of information available regards biblical interpretation and understanding.  Just what is available in traditional sources alone is far more than the average person can digest in a lifetime, never mind also having to deal with all that is appearing in an explosive way here online.

What to read, view, listen to and investigate is a hit or miss proposition at times, and the varied, overlapping, contradictory, inconsistent and downright weird interpretations and theories abounding everywhere really can make one’s head spin.  And the dogmatic, condescending and judgmental attitudes that are frequently encountered when one is just trying to learn the truth is most frustrating, indeed. But, there are still good, solid, biblical teachers in many places doing much good for God’s people.

When Elijah lamented to God that he, Elijah, was the only one of God’s prophets still alive after a great persecution in Israel by Jezebel, God told Elijah that he was not the only prophet left, that He, God, always keeps a remnant for Himself.  I believe that has not changed today. There is a remnant within and among all the countless televangelists, prosperity preachers, Bible shysters and alike, that still teach the solid Word of God.  I certainly do not know who many of them are, but as I believe I discover them, I will post so here.

What I also plan on providing here are my personal understandings and interpretations of Scripture  — nothing more, nothing less.  But, of course, I am always open to the understandings of others, too. And, I welcome your comments, interpretations and ideas as well.  But please, let us not permit things to descend into doctrinal shoving matches to prove how right and wise we might be. Take from this blog whatever you find useful and relevant, and I will accept from you whatever I find useful and relevant.   Simple enough, yes?

Thanks for visiting as this blog starts its beginning.  I hope you, I and all who visit here will be well served because of our cooperative efforts.
