Reading Scripture with Christ at the Center

from Contending for the Word Q&A · host Dave Jenkins

How should Christians read the Bible in a way that honors Christ as the center of God's revelation? In this episode of Contending for the Word Q&A, Dave Jenkins explains why every part of Scripture ultimately points to Jesus Christ. Drawing from Luke 24, John 5, and Colossians 1, this episode shows how Christ-centered reading guards believers from moralism, legalism, and self-centered interpretation. Christ did not treat Scripture as a collection of disconnected teachings, but as a unified revelation of God's redemptive plan fulfilled in Him. When Christians read the Bible with Christ at the center, obedience flows from gratitude, faith, and love. This episode will help you read the Bible more faithfully, see Christ more clearly, and grow in confidence in the sufficiency of God's Word.
