The Daily Grind 579 Never Read a Bible VerseThursday, August 21: In this episode of The Daily Grind, John Spencer unpacks why it’s dangerous to read a single Bible verse in isolation. Scripture was written for us, but not to us, and pulling verses out of context often leads to distortion and misuse. John explores the crucial difference between descriptive passages, which tell us what happened, and prescriptive passages, which give clear commands for how God’s people should live. Gideon’s fleece in Judges 6 and the communal living of the early church in Acts 2 are vivid descriptions of real moments in history, but not universal instructions for al...
