We believe that The Scriptures constitute a coherent
whole. They are at once divinely inspired and humanly expressed. They bear
authoritative witness to God's revelation of Himself - in creation, in the
Incarnation of the Word, and the whole history of salvation. And as such they
express the word of God in human language. We know, receive, and
interpret Scripture through the Church and in the Church. Our approach to the
Bible is one of obedience.
We may distinguish four key qualities that mark an
Orthodox reading of Scripture, namely
- our reading should
be obedient,
- it should be
ecclesial, within the Church,
- it should be
Christ-centered,
- it should be
personal.
