It's like riding a bicycle or swimming: You learn by doing.   .. Luis Palau  March 14, 2001   Most evangelicals believe that if a passage of the Bible seems unclear in its meaning, it should be interpreted in the light of Scripture "as a whole". But what does "Scripture as a whole" mean? In practice, if not theory, it means the working systematic theology of the interpreter, or of his own theological tradition. An evangelical... would not hold to that tradition unless he believed that it did represent the wholeness of the biblical witness. Nevertheless, if this state of affairs has been correctly described, he is now in a serious difficulty. For if the Bible must always accord with a theology that has already been accepted, how can the truth of a biblical passage ever confront him afresh with an unfavorable judgment?]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6354</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[These are cancer victims and survivors who are close to me. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/39933]]></link><description><![CDATA[These are cancer victims and survivors who are close to me.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/39933</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Oh, where did hunter win So delicate a skin  For her feet?   You lucky little kid,  ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/56215]]></link><description><![CDATA[Oh, where did hunter win So delicate a skin  For her feet?   You lucky little kid,    You perished, so you did,     For my sweet.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/56215</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[All are unique films that you will not likely see anywhere else. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/39225]]></link><description><![CDATA[All are unique films that you will not likely see anywhere else.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/39225</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Before you can see the light, you have to deal with the darkness. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/22359]]></link><description><![CDATA[Before you can see the light, you have to deal with the darkness.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/22359</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Facts per se can neither prove nor refute anything.
