Bible Prophecy Under the Microscope-Episode 68
Reading the Bible is more than just understanding the words on the page.
The first place to start in learning how to interpret prophecy is to learn how to interpret the Bible, because the Bible is the best interpreter of itself. This statement seems so obvious, and yet many people fail to follow it. When the subject of prophecy comes up, some eager prophecy students read the Bible through the headlines of the newspaper. When news stories report about earthquakes, wars and rumors of wars, and famines, these are immediately seen by many as “signs” that prophecy is being fulfilled right before our eyes.
There have been earthquakes, wars and rumors of wars, and famines for thousands of years. Why are they signs now when they were thought to be signs 60 years ago, 100 years ago, and 250 years ago for people living then? In fact, for nearly 2000 years there have always been people who claimed that the end was near for them. How could they be wrong about something the Bible talks a lot about? Can the Bible be that hard to understand?
With so much prophetic material in the Bible — somewhere around 25% of the total makeup of Scripture — it seems difficult to argue that an expert is needed to understand such a large portion of God’s Word and so many “experts” could be wrong generation after generation. If God’s Word is a lamp to our feet and a light to our path” (Psalm 119:105), how do we explain that not a lot of light has been shed on God’s prophetic Word and with so little accuracy? A Beginner’s Guide to Interpreting Bible Prophecy has been designed to help Christians of all ages and levels of experience to study Bible prophecy with confidence.
Reading the Bible is more than just understanding the words on the page; the words were said or written in a particular historical time and place and meant something significant to that audience. We must read and interpret the Bible, especially prophetic passages, with that historical awareness in mind.
