Description: Bryan teaches that true Bible interpretation comes solely from Scripture itself, rejecting outside sources and traditions as anti-sola scriptura. He stresses testing God's Word for purity and consistency, like refined silver, and warns against adding to it. The Spirit aids understanding through the apostles' preserved interpretations in the NT, which explain the OT. Key principles: Scripture interprets Scripture; NT reveals OT mysteries; no human wisdom or feelings involved. Examples from Paul's use of OT in NT show how Christ (the Word) is God's power and wisdom. Natural man can't grasp spiritual depths without the Spirit granting eyes to see. Bryan plans to cover more principles like types/anti-types next time. Be Bereans: examine everything with Scripture.
