And he is the head of the body, the church: who is the beginning, the firstborn from the dead; that in all things he might have the preeminence. Colossians 1:18

What makes you who you are
One of the reasons for this post is to let people know who I am and what I believe. Hermneutics is the foundation of your theology. Hermneutics in its simpliest definition is: the science of interpretation. There are many things that are involved in interpretation, but one of the prime things in interpreting is "Context". I personally believe that the correct way to interpret is literally. Now we do have to realize that there are portions of scripture that are not meant for exact literal translations, such as Nebuchadnezzer's dream of the "man", but in situations like this we are not left to our own minds to explain what this means, the bible has the interpretation. There will be more to come in the future...
