What My Bible Means To You Study

273 Words2 Pages

How to you study your Bible? No, I don 't mean read your Bible I mean study your Bible. Over the past few years, I 've discovered that I study my Bible like a textbook. My approach is similar to taking a course in college. When I look back through my college textbooks the margins are filled with notes, comments, and references to other pages. Guess what? so is my Bible. So now that I know that is my approach what is yours? What should it be? The Bible says, "Study to show thyself approved unto God, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth." It is pretty cut and dry. This is a command. So let me ask you, is a command to read or to study? I can read the paper, but I don 't study it. I can read a novel, but

    For me, the reading and comprehension isn't that difficult. Its more of learning who is who. For example, when someone is talking with no quotation at the end, its hard for me understand who is talking. Throughout the year of 2017-2018, I need to find a way to keep track of all the characters and understand who is who. This will help me later in the future while I am reading harder books for literature.

  • Discussion Board Regarding The Bible

    155 Words  | 1 Pages

    I enjoyed very much all the good points mentioned in your discussion board regarding the Bible. I do believe that, it is important to learn the history, meaning and behind God’s plan for the Bible in our regular day lives. In the meantime, I would like to highlight the fact that, nevertheless, the Bible is all God’s Word, but, it is also good, in order to better appreciate, that Christians study other scriptures such as Old and New Testament, Gospel, the Psalms, Proverbs, Wisdom, and so forth. There are differences about the scriptures, for example, the Bible describes God’s word to us, whereas the psalms, are prayers written to God as poetry is set to music. As stated in 2 Timothy 3:16-17, “All Scripture is breathed out by God and profitable

  • Interpreting The New Testament Through The Lens Of Our Twenty-First-Century Culture

    156 Words  | 1 Pages

    Jonathan, I agree with your statement we do tend to view the New Testament through the lens of our twenty-first-century culture. Even though we know that it's not the best way to interpret the New Testament we seem to get a better grasp from doing this. I like how you brought up the original authors of the New Testament and how they wrote through the guidance of the Holy Spirit. Yes, it is difficult to fit in someone else's shoes, but the Holy Spirit that existed when scripture was penned can lead, guide and direct our path today just as it did then. I would agree with you that the three methods that the authors bring forth are a great way to view the New Testament.

If I had to pick a single book in which to spend my time learning, I would pick the book of Psalms. Psalms is probably the most figurative of all the books, but I find that it has the most enriching material. Each Psalm is its own advice to Christians, I would

    A biblical worldview will effect everything I do in my life. One of the most important things is the way we treat and interact with others. It start with the way we think about others, if we know them or not we should see them through the eye of compassion.

    I am an avid reader and reading has been my favorite hobby for a great deal of my life. When I am reading a book, I don 't just glance at the words, I dive into the world that the pages describe. Unfortunately, when I do this I render myself oblivious to my surroundings, such as people attempting to talk to me and the current time. The latter of which has resulted in me missing various types of deadlines, such as arriving somewhere late or going to sleep at an absurd hour in the early morning.

In the Bible there is an infinite amount of knowledge. This knowledge goes past anybodies wisdom, if the society used books they would be able to use the advice of the wise people from the past. Bradbury compares life and books because life is so difficult that nobody can understand it.

    I would start by saying that I am sorry that my friend feels this way. The Bible is God’s story and His plan for us to live our lives Holy and successfully. We are to see that the Bible is a book that has certainties that can and will help our lives daily. It is not a book about the path that I must choose but it is a book that expresses the path that God has chosen in order to redeem humanity (Cartwright &Hulshof, 2016).

  • Exegesis Of Isaiah 53

    1241 Words  | 5 Pages

    Many times, especially at Bible College it gets monotonous and even robotic to say that Jesus is the reason why we have peace with the Father as it is said many times and loses its meaning. While reading up and researching for this, the love and appreciation I have for all that Jesus went through for me personally is exhilarating and rekindles the appreciation I have for all that He has done. Secondly, this helps to get me more confident as I add to reasons as to why Jesus is the messiah long awaited for. Growing up in a Christian household, I have just believed and shared that Jesus is the messiah because it was what was told to me as child. Now in researching it and seeing for myself that Jesus corresponds to a prophecy that was written about 700 years before is mind-blowing and helps me to be way more cemented in my
