I try very hard to be accurate in what I believe (and especially what I teach), but the truth is, sometimes I’m wrong. The truth written in the Bible is perfect, but sometimes we can misinterpret it. It’s important for us to help each other better understand God’s Word so that we can discover our own blind spots. Let’s draw closer to God together!
It’s very easy to think that you’re perspective is correct (don’t we all?), but no one is perfect except for God. We can all misunderstand and make mistakes. Just because you are sure that you are right and have a very good argument for why you believe what you believe, that doesn’t always mean that you are right. You might be missing something. That’s why it’s so important for us to help one another and share our unique perspectives. The videos I make are not perfect, even if I try to make sure that they are based on the perfect source, which is God’s Word. The fact that none of us is God means that no one of us can have all of the answers. I need you, you need me, we all need each other as we learn and grow and seek to better understand God’s will as found in the Bible.
