Purpose of This Policy
This commentary exists to explain, teach, and apply the New Testament Scriptures faithfully and without compromise. Its purpose is to communicate the meaning of the biblical text as accurately and honestly as possible.

Because the Bible itself makes exclusive truth claims, calls people to repentance, and confronts beliefs and behaviors that conflict with God’s revealed will, some content may be perceived as offensive by individuals or institutions. This policy clarifies the nature, intent, and boundaries of such content.
________________________________________
Commitment to Scripture Over Cultural Approval
All commentary is governed by the authority of Scripture, not by contemporary cultural norms, ideological trends, or institutional preferences. Interpretive conclusions are drawn from the biblical text itself, using historical, grammatical, and contextual analysis.

The commentary will not be altered, removed, or softened to conform to external definitions of “acceptable” theology, morality, or speech when such definitions conflict with the plain teaching of Scripture.

As written in Galatians 1:10 (Berean Standard Bible):
“Am I now seeking the approval of men, or of God? Or am I striving to please men? If I were still trying to please men, I would not be a servant of Christ.”
________________________________________
What This Commentary May Contain
Readers and platforms should expect that this commentary may include:
• Affirmation of biblical exclusivity regarding salvation through Jesus Christ alone
• Clear distinctions between truth and error as presented in Scripture
• Biblical definitions of sin, righteousness, repentance, judgment, and salvation
• Critique of beliefs, teachings, or practices that contradict the New Testament
• Moral and theological conclusions that may conflict with modern social or religious views
These elements arise directly from the biblical text and are not intended as personal attacks.
________________________________________
What This Commentary Does Not Promote
This commentary does not endorse or engage in:
• Personal harassment or threats
• Hate speech directed at individuals or ethnic groups
• Calls for violence or coercion
• Mockery, ridicule, or demeaning language
• Political advocacy unrelated to biblical interpretation
Any offense taken should be understood as disagreement with biblical claims, not misconduct by the author.
________________________________________
Distinction Between Biblical Offense and Malicious Speech
The Bible itself acknowledges that truth will offend. Scripture describes this as an inevitable outcome of faithfully proclaiming God’s Word.

As stated in 1 Corinthians 1:23 (Berean Standard Bible):
“But we preach Christ crucified, a stumbling block to Jews and foolishness to Gentiles.”

Offense resulting from faithful exposition of Scripture is fundamentally different from offense caused by hostility, prejudice, or uncharitable speech.
________________________________________
Platform Participation Disclaimer
This commentary may be distributed through third-party platforms for the purpose of wider access. However:
• Participation on any platform does not imply doctrinal alignment with that platform
• The author retains editorial independence
• Requests to remove or revise biblical content solely on the basis of perceived offensiveness will be respectfully declined
As written in Acts 5:29 (Berean Standard Bible):
“But Peter and the other apostles replied, ‘We must obey God rather than men.’”
________________________________________
Reader Responsibility
Readers are encouraged to examine the Scriptures for themselves and evaluate all commentary in light of God’s Word.
As stated in Acts 17:11 (Berean Standard Bible):
“Now the Bereans were more noble-minded than the Thessalonians, for they received the message with great eagerness and examined the Scriptures every day to see if these teachings were true.”
Disagreement is expected; censorship is not required.

Final Statement
This commentary exists to serve Christ, His Church, and the truth of Scripture. Faithfulness to God’s Word takes precedence over distribution, platform access, or public approval.

Those who choose to engage with this work do so with the understanding that biblical truth; by its very nature; may confront, challenge, and offend.
