The Mind of Christ and the Bible - How Jesus Used the Old Testament Barrett Wilson

In these days of terrorists' attacks and conflicting religions, doubt and confusion are widespread throughout Christianity. Many Christians are perplexed about the interpretation of the Bible. Never before has there been a greater need for guidance in biblical interpretation as today. How many Christians today could benefit from having guidelines for interpreting the Bible that originate with Christ Himself? It goes without saying that every Christian could profit from having such a guideline. What is biblical interpretation? It is discovering what the original author meant-but it is more. The wise biblical interpreter can provide a sound perspective on difficult and obscure passages. When the Bible is interpreted properly, its meaning and relevance is made clearer. The author has a Master's Degree in Divinity from Duke University and served in Methodist ministry. He made a special study of Jesus' uses of the Old Testament for forty-five years and the results have been delivered in this book.
