- Abstract
- The purpose of the study was to explore how lay people who hold to the doctrine of inerrancy engage hermeneutical strategies in reading Bible texts considered difficult. The research, following a literature review, engaged qualitative methodology through personal interviews guided by four research questions. These questions explored the participants' beliefs about inerrancy, their approaches to difficult texts, their methods of interpretation which were largely individualistic, and their reliance upon God's guidance in understanding texts. The conclusion was that the participants read in light of a vigorous personal commitment to God without further academic engagement with the formal doctrine of inerrancy.
