Twisted Scripture: The Growing Trend of Re-interpreting the Scriptures to Justify Our Own Passions

“How can we claim to know the objective and truthful Creator of all things if we are free to subjectively interpret His word according to the whims of culture, politics, and social climate?”

(The Dissenter) The twisting of Scripture for personal gain is nothing new, but I have observed a rapidly growing and disturbing trend among politicians who claim to be Christians and religious leaders who support them, who attempt to reason that certain passages of Scripture hold different meanings for them than they do for others….

Well, on a personal level, as a Christian who believes in the Bible, I find this to be offensive and a gross violation of the sacred trust we have been given in the Word of God. But, my personal opinion aside, since that’s the entire point of this article, we’re obligated to seek God’s position on this issue and hold to that, instead.

As he does in all his letters when he speaks in them of these matters. There are some things in them that are hard to understand, which the ignorant and unstable twist to their own destruction, as they do the other Scriptures. —2 Peter 3:16   View article →
