With the selection last night of a Supreme Court nominee who is well known as a Constitutional originalist, I am reminded of the importance of “original intent” when interpreting the Bible.
The legal meaning of original intent is the theory of interpretation by which judges attempt to ascertain the meaning of the constitution by determining how it was understood at the time it was drafted and ratified.
“But the Helper, the Holy Spirit, whom the Father will send in my name, he will teach you all things and bring to your remembrance all that I have said to you.”
