Is it really a problem to use our favorite verses out of context? How do you avoid making a verse say what it doesn't say?

We all have verses that we quote regularly. But are we sure we understand them? Does the meaning we give them correspond to the intention of the Holy Spirit? Who has never heard the verse in a prayer meeting, "For where two or three are gathered in my name, I am among them"? You may be surprised to realize that this is a misinterpretation!

Take the context into account : this is the leitmotif of this book! Because understanding the Bible better allows us to know God better and to do the works he has planned for us.

Under the direction of Samuel Perez, 17 authors of the evangelical world explain how to understand well 17 verses known but poorly understood, because often quoted “ out of context” . This book concludes with practical advice and tools to help us avoid the trap of “out of context”.
