Cultural Relativity and Biblical Interpretation: A Deep Dive

Welcome back, my brothers and sisters in Christ! In this episode, we delve into Gordon B. Fee and Douglas Stewart's book, How to Read the Bible for All Its Worth, focusing on the challenges of cultural relativity in interpreting scripture.

We explore the differences between the 1st and 21st centuries, especially regarding women's roles in the church and the contentious issue of homosexuality. The authors argue that while some biblical mandates might be culturally relative, others, like the Bible's stance on homosexuality, are consistent and timeless.

Join us as we dissect these complex topics and seek to understand how to apply biblical truths in today's world. This discussion aims to equip you with the knowledge to read and interpret the Bible accurately, considering both historical context and contemporary applications.
