The Bible Was Written For You Not To You: Understanding Scripture In Its Original Context And Its Christ Centered Story

The Bible was written for you. It was not written to you. Every book of the Bible first came to real people living in real places, speaking real languages, and facing real questions. Moses wrote to Israel in the wilderness. Paul wrote to churches working through hard questions. John wrote to believers living under the shadow of Rome.

When you understand who Scripture was first written to, you begin to understand what it means for you today. Yet context is only part of the story. From Genesis to Revelation, the Bible tells one unified, Christ centered story. Promises made in the beginning find their fulfillment in the end. People, events, and covenants point beyond themselves to Jesus.
