Why must the Scripture be foundational to our faith? Without it, where would we be? The way we see and understand the origin and nature of Scripture greatly impacts the role that the Bible plays in our lives and in the church at large. When we want to understand Scripture correctly, we first of all need to allow the Bible to determine the basic parameters of how it should be treated. Our interpretation of Scripture needs to take seriously the divine-human dimension of God’s Word. This week we will look at some foundational aspects of the origin and nature of the Bible that should impact our interpretation and understanding of it.

Jesus Himself referred to the Scriptures all the time, especially in terms of prophecy being fulfilled. What then should our attitude be toward the Bible? Composed of 66 books, and written over 1,500 years on three continents (Asia, Africa, and Europe) by more than forty authors, the Bible is unique. There is no other book, sacred or religious, like it. And no wonder. After all, it is the Word of God. The Bible was the first book known to be translated, the first book in the West published on the printing press, and the first book to be so widely distributed in so many languages that it can be read by 95 percent of the earth’s population today. The Bible also is unique in its content and message, which focuses on God’s redemptive acts in history. That history is intertwined with prophecy, as it foretells the future of God’s plans and His eternal kingdom.

Think about a time when you didn’t understand some texts, only to have them clarified later. What did you learn from that experience that perhaps could help others struggling with something similar? The Protestant claim of “Scripture alone” (sola Scriptura) elevated Scripture to the sole standard and decisive source for theology. It was the Bible that gave the decisive force and authority to the Protestant Reformation and its revolt against Rome and the errors it had been teaching for centuries. The Protestant Reformers emphasized the importance of a grammatical-historical interpretation of the Bible, which took seriously the grammar and literal meaning of the biblical text.
