Well, in order to interpret scriptures accurately, it is imperative to weigh your pastors interpretations with your own understandings, you also want to make sure your theology checks out. Whether that means discussions with others who share similar beliefs and what not. It's hard to explain, but as long as core theologies check out, minor interpretations don't matter too much. I enjoy debating interpretations on a smaller scale. As long as important theologies aren't being disagreed upon everything is good.
Well, there is a way to have an extremely solid, and fairly accurate interpretation of theology. Your theology between verses must line up across the entirety of the Bible.
Well I don't completely disagree with you, I suppose it's important to not go wrong on big theology issues, as I've said earlier in this post. I think we have reached a more or less reasonable agreement to agree and disagree.
I honestly don't care what the Bible says. I make my own decisions.
