Limits of Leadership: Boundaries of Biblical Hermeneutics

 Don Carson discusses the strengths and weaknesses of new hermeneutics, arguing that while it offers helpful insights, all Scripture carries an enduring relevance that transcends cultural shifts. He emphasizes the need for humility in biblical interpretation, the clarity of Scripture, and the role of the Holy Spirit in understanding God's Word.

He teaches the following:

• New hermeneutics must be balanced by Scripture's transcendent relevance
• Scripture is clear and accessible for all believers to understand and obey
• God's revelation is complete under the New Covenant
• Understanding Scripture requires both intellectual effort and the Holy Spirit's guidance
• How to evaluate command, sharing, and servant models of leadership
• Humility and a teachable spirit are essential when interpreting God's Word
