I am assuming in my comments that proper Biblical interpretation only takes place within the heart of the Church, which is where the Bible was written and who it was written for. The same Spirit that inspired the Psalmists and the author of Hebrews also guides the Church, so any interpretation that goes outside Church teaching is <i>ipso facto</i> illegitimate. But of course that still leaves a pretty broad road in which interpretation can take place. A valid concern, Tito.

But doesn't this 'explanation' lend weight to Protestants who reinterpret portions of the Bible so it can fit into their theology and justify things such as sola scriptura and sola fide?
