MANIPULATING THE BIBLICAL TEXTS

Michał Wojciechowski Logo ORCID

Abstract

The Bible is appreciated in our culture, but it is sometimes incorrectly understood. The correct basic meaning of the biblical texts should be established with literary and historical methods, but this meaning is sometimes distorted for ideological and confessional reasons. Looking for a deeper meaning can lead to subjective exposition. Sects often cut the biblical quotations from their proper context. Biblical sayings and situations are sometimes applied incorrectly to the present problems. They are misused in the progressive propaganda. Do not allow manipulation and do not manipulate! (Matt. 10.16).
