My notes for Wednesday night, July 23rd. Remember, these are my personal study notes and not a manuscript of the sermon. They are provided as an outline each week for our Tabernacle Church family. Our study over the next few months will be a study on Hermeneutics: Becoming Students and Teachers of the Word. Our goal is to develop tools to help us read, study, apply, and share the Bible more effectively. You can find Sermon Notes, Family Devotional Guides, Prayer List, and other resources at our Church Website.
Hermeneutics – HERMENEUEIN from Luke 24:27 to explain or interpret. The term simply describes the practice and discipline of interpreting the Bible.
