We believe that is it the Holy Spirits role in the believers life to teach and remind us of God’s Word not the Pastors. So how does an individual approach God's Holy Word and ensure their understanding is from God? The only way that a sinful individual in a sinful environment can understand any spiritual truth, is if God teaches/reveals the Truth (i.e. God’s Word) to them (1st Corinthians 2:6-16).

In this present Church era, the Christian is taught and reminded of scripture by one of the three persons of the Godhead – the Holy Spirit (John 14:26). As the Holy Spirit teaches and illuminates His Word to the child of God, they are transformed by the renewing of their minds into the image of Christ (Romans 12:1-4). It is Truth (i.e. God’s Word) that is illuminated to the child of God by the Holy Spirit.

So the Christian’s hermeneutic (how the student can properly understand or interpret scripture) is the Holy Spirit illuminates truth (i.e. teaches and reminds one of God’s Word). The Holy Spirit is the perfect Teacher and Reminder of His perfect Word. But, as long as the Christian’s sin nature and/or the effects of a sinful environment continue to affect the Christian’s interpretation of the Bible, there is a need for protection against misinterpretation which will provide assurance that what is understood of scripture is truly from our Communicator (i.e. Holy Spirit).
