The Doctrine of Scripture, with Dr. Brad East
Mere Fidelity
What Is the Purpose of Reading?
A, one of those things is understanding or knowledge. A, but that's one of many. And in my judgment, it's not the final end, or the most important one. Wher christian readers are inclined to think that understanding, the one historical or original meaning, is the purpose of reading. So then, what is it for? A, it is for spiritual fellowship with god. It is for a intimacy with the lord. It is or receiving instruction in one's life. It isfor the edification of the body. It's for the glory and praise and worship of god. The bible isn't mediating that to us, then we're doing it wrong.
