00 From Introduction :
Induction in a Broader Sense: It involves a commitment to move from the
evidence of the text to and the realities that surround the text to the possible
conclusions (or inferences) regarding meaning of the test. It involves helping
the students of the Bible to understand and process the critical interaction
between their pre-understandings ,including theological creeds and doctrinal
commitments , and the witness of the biblical text.
Emphases: First it emphasizes the meaning of the final form of the text.
Directly focusing on Canonical collection in its final form. The second
emphasis is the form of the text, giving serious attention to literary structure
and how such structure informs the meaning of the text.
The IBS attends not only to the nature of biblical text but also the nature of
the student and to the realities that exist in situation of most of the
students .In IBS Dynamic interrelation exist between the specific steps
involved against the linear model sequential model of the steps. It is not
linear but spiracular.
IBS tries to deal with the text at various levels. : the book, the division, the
section, the segment, the paragraph, the sentence.
IBS is essentially a comprehensive, holistic study of the Bible, that
takes into account every aspect of the existence of the biblical text
and that is intentional in allowing the Bible in its final Canonical
shape to speak to us on its own terms , thus leading accurate
,original, compelling and profound interpretation and contemporary
appropriation .
As believers, we are convinced of that the development of methodical,
inductive approach is the means of training the mind to become a more fit
instrument for the operation of Gods spirit. Because biblical interpretation
involves a rational process ,the mind must function properly if interpretation
should be valid. But, the minds proper function is not automatic; therefore
the mind need to be trained or it might become the means of negating Gods
Spirit. A methodical approach involves description of how the spirit works
through the mind and how
one might cooperate with the Spirit so that the Spirit might function freely.
The ultimate purpose of IBS mechanics is that the student of Scriptures
might come to know the real author of the Scriptures , the only true God, and
Jesus Christ ,whom He has sent.
