Seized By Truth

$30.99

Shows how we read the Bible and interpret Scripture in order to live in grace-filled relation to God’s divine purpose
Green contends that when we approach the Bible as Scripture, the Bible then becomes our book; these Scriptures become our Scripture. We are not reading someone else’s mail – as though reading the Bible had to do foremost with recovering an ancient meaning intended for someone else and then translating its principles for use in our own lives.
Argues that when we encounter the Bible, the fundamental transformation takes place, not through the metamorphosis of an ancient message into a contemporary meaning, but as our lives are radically changed by means of God’s Word.
Concludes that reading the Bible as Scripture has less to do with what tools readers bring to the task, than with their dispositions as they engage Scripture.
Thus, readers come to the Bible, not so much to retrieve facts or to gain information, but to be formed and ultimately, transformed.
