You *might* be getting closer to the truth. We can always hope so. I know that I have never deliberately tried to get farther from the truth. I suspect the same is true for you, as well as anyone else who takes this quiz. Don’t be scared, Kevin. You *might* be getting closer to the truth. We can always hope so.

I think my view on this has changed a bit from seminary. It's a little bit scary for me to think this. When I took this quiz, I was surprised to answer more #3 than #2.

That represents a shift in my thinking from the teaching of my childhood church as well as my Bible school. But it is a shift which aligns with what I believe to be the integrity of the original text. This is an important concept to me since I am a Bible translator and I believe that I must translate the original human author's intended meaning, not a later meaning given to that text by N.T. authors (even though I agree with their messianic interpretation) or Bible teachers today.

I read the intro and I've started reading the brief intros to each book and they are pretty interesting so far. I haven't felt a need to read any specific passages, but the few I've looked at so far were great. That’s the one.
