CHAD: The interpretation is the application. MARK: You need to keep a dictionary nearby. An interpretation is NOT an application. Otherwise, all I have to do to "love my neighbor" is simply interpret what the text means and, viola, I've applied the passage. I think James (Jam. 2:15-16) would take issue with you on your definitions. The demons wouldn't (Jam. 2:19), but James would.

GNC has nothing to do with application and everything to do with interpretation. There's no dichotomy between the application of scripture and the interpretation. The interpretation is the application.
