1. A response to the interpretation of Acts 4:32–36 as endorsing a type of community life as normative for the Christian church.a. What rule of interpretation was broken, ignored, or violated? The rule of biblical interpretation that has been broken here is that no doctrine should be based entirely on one passage of Bible Scripture. Beyond that, no verse or phrase can or should have a meaning in isolation that it would not have if retained in its original context.b. What rule of interpretation should be followed? The rule of biblical interpretation that was not followed and should have been followed was that when a contradiction like this appears, emphasis should be placed only on multiple passages that are clear rather than on one isolated, obscure passage. The sole basis for establishing a doctrine cannot be based on the historical occurrence of an event.

In this passage John was really just trying to illustrate that Jesus supports His believers spiritually, just as water and food support them physically. “It is His flesh and blood that gives eternal life to those who choose to receive salvation. For the life of the creature is in the blood, and I give it to you that you may make atonement for yourselves on the altar; it is the blood that makes atonement for one's life” (Leviticus 17:11 NIV). The expression to eat His flesh has been commonly used as a way of saying to put one's faith in Christ. No doctrine or practice should ever be considered biblical unless it has been summarized and truly includes everything the Scriptures have said about it..
