DESCRIPTION:
"An absolutely critical issue" according to Jim B. Robert Thomas has given a call to evangelicals to realize that in their ranks that some have been changing the rules for the worse, the rules that should be followed in interpreting the Bible. Hermeneutics, the set of rules or principles for proper interpretation of God's revelation, is SO FOUNDATIONAL to everything else that it can be argued that the concerns Thomas rai. Excellent book!!! StevenG Robert L. Thomas gives a clear and precise evaluation on how todays evangelicals have shifted away from the traditional grammatical-historical hermeneutics of the Bible. This book is a must read for Seminary students and Pastors who are faithful to the Word of God through expositional preaching!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!. "Five Stars is not enough!" according to James L. Gray. Dr. Thomas has touched a nerve with his book on hermeneutics. He comes from the 'old school' that takes Scripture as it reads rather than the practice so often today of projecting your 'pre-understanding' into the interpreting methodology. He follows Milton Terry's hermeneutic methodology which is more reliable and lets the Scriptures speak for themselves.This is not for
A thorough and competent examination of divergent hermeneutical methods widely used by evangelicals today.
