4️⃣R.C. Sproul said it best: “The Bible is not a wax nose.” You can’t twist it to fit modern theories. God’s Word has one meaning, not many impressions.

3️⃣John MacArthur warned: when interpretation becomes literary instead of historical, Scripture turns into a storybook—subjective, flexible, and stripped of divine authority.
