Abstract: This research is about identifying the effects of misinterpreting scriptures and identify principles that help proper interpreting the Bible. These principles are called hermeneutics. Scripture interpretation is so critical that Apostle Peter emphasized it by warning the unlearned and unstable people who were misinterpreting Paul’s letters as they did other scriptures to their destruction (2Pe:3:15). Scripture handling is so efficacious that misinterpretation may cause grave errors. Proper hermeneutics will help bring out the authors intended meaning which will be exegetically explained to the congregation. Sound Bible interpretation will safeguard from imposing the reader’s meaning (eisegesis). A number of reasons why people differ in opinion from one another is that they use different measuring rods of interpretation.
