Rules of Understanding Religion According to Christ

Abstract

It is based on the foundations and approaches that Christians rely on to interpret religious texts in the Bible (Old Testament and New Testament). These rules seek to ensure that the texts are understood correctly and in line with the Christian faith and church traditions. Their primary reference is the Bible, which is considered the primary source of Christian teachings. The belief in the texts is inspired by God, and its spiritual interpretation depends on the symbolism of the texts and its interpretation of parables within their historical and cultural context, as well as through studying the social, political and religious circumstances at the time and their commitment to church tradition. They also rely on the interpretation of the early church fathers and their original languages ​​(Hebrew, Aramaic, Greek) to understand the precise meanings, and to take into account linguistic differences and different translations. Through the above, religious texts aim to strengthen the relationship with God and achieve salvation, focusing on love and service as the essence of Christian teachings.
