In general, the Holy Bible is the top selling book throughout the world. Just come to consider it, it had existed in for just about 2,000 years. That’s the Old Testament and the New Testament alone. Even before the approaching of Jesus Christ, the Old Testament was already in existence too among the Jews.
Today, the Holy Bible is being sold by the millions across the planet. Many people do own a copy of it. But do all of the owners read the Bible everyday? Do they bring it to church when they attend church service? Truth of the affair is, only a very smattering read the book themselves! That sure is a pretty miserable thing, isn’t it?
One of the reasons why people don’t read the Bible is because they find it tough to understand. Somehow, they think that probably only the religious people can understand it. Will we need to take up a job on religion simply to understand God’s word?
Somehow the Holy Scriptures do advocate us to look at the Bible. In reality it asserts, look at the scriptures for ye think ye have life in them. It also announces, study to show yourself approve unto God.
So you’ll ask, “Where do we start our study?” There are 2 things you can do. 1) Study it by yourself . 2) Study under the steering of your church leaders or scholars.
Sadly, studying the Bible on your own can be extremely difficult. It is like you are groping in the darkness. Plenty of us do need the steerage of the Lord God as well as the steerage of someone who already understands the Bible.But then, you could say, “There are too many Christian denominations today, who is telling the truth?” But the Bible says, test the spirits of these Bible teachers how they compare with the Bible truths. So, compare what does a specific religious leader say with the Bible truths. Judgement isn’t mine to make as I am not God.
Nonetheless if you really need to know of the Bible truths, pray that the Holy Spirit may lead you. My only prayer is, may God grant you your want to find the truth you are seeking for. When you look at the Holy Bible, remember to pray for the steerage of the Lord God Almighty.
