The Question We Need to Answer

How should I live out God’s Theological Principle in my life?
God’s universal truth is a broad umbrella. It encompasses the whole world.
Through the guidance of the Holy Spirit, we should take God’s universal principle and make it specific to our life!

Application Must Be Personal

The principle is the same for all of us; however, we are all in different areas of our lives. Ex: location, spiritually, family…etc.
Take your steel toed boots off and allow God to convict you and step on your toes.
Without proper application, we can know the Bible without living it.

Differences between Meaning and Application

Meaning - is decided on by the author. It remains true for no matter who reads the passage.
Application - Is decided on by the reader. It is the actions the reader intends to take, because of the authors intended meaning.
We should ask the question, “What did the author mean in this passage, and how can I apply it to my life.
