Jeremiah 29:11 and "The Bible was written for us, not to us"

Jerry Dodson posted this meme, and message:

Jared Byas quoting his friend Daniel Kirk, Associate Professor of New Testament at Fuller Theological Seminary: "The Bible was written for us, not to us." And until we understand what it means that the Bible WASN'T written to us, we will always distort how it WAS written for us."  link

(HT: Keltic Ken and Rabbi Adamito)
