In this episode, Pastor Mike answers an important question about interpreting Scripture: how do we know if a Bible promise is meant for a specific group in history or for all believers today?
Using Jeremiah 29:11 as a key example, he explains the importance of understanding historical context, original audience, and authorial intent. While this well-known verse was originally spoken to Judah during the Babylonian exile, Pastor Mike shows how believers today can still draw meaningful and accurate principles from it—without misapplying the text.
This teaching helps you grow in sound biblical interpretation while still being encouraged by the truth of God’s promises for His people today.
