The bible is the world's most wonderful book. It continues to be the world's best seller. It is love in life and cherished even more in death. Yet, in spite all these facts,the bible is abused,misused,misrepresented,and misunderstood more than anyother book in the world.Many confess great difficulty in understanding it,and some declarethat it is an utter impossibility. However,Jesus commanded the Apostles to "GO....teach all nations..." Matt. 28:19. He also taught that one must do God's will to enter into the Kingdom of heaven, Matt.7:21; and we must understand his will before we can do it. to be continued......... Post Reply
davdlat2 View Profile History	How to understand the Bible? Posted : 5 Mar, 2010 05:03 PM God has always revealed his will in terms that men could understand.Adam and Eve understood. Noah understood how to build the ark. Gen. 6: 13-22. Moises understood how to build the tabernacle. God gave him the pattern and demanded that he follow it, Ex.25:40, Heb. 8:5. The gospel is simple, and the New Testament is written in simple language. God is a just God and does not require the impossible.We may never understand fully all the great depths and heights of the Bible; but we can understand how to become a Christian and how to worship and serve God acceptably if we will approach the Bible with the right attitude and study it sensibly and systematically, and rightly divide it as we study. The next time I will go in more details on the right attitude one need to have in order to understand the Bible. May God bless you. Post Reply

View Profile History	How to understand the Bible? Posted : 7 Mar, 2010 03:01 AM shalom dear brother,,a good way to understand Scripture is to keep and understand the Appointed times that YAHWAH told us to keep. They are in the Torah or the first five books which ever you choose to call it. It is in the Torah that YAHWAH tell us the times and YAHSHUA kept them while HE was here and fulfilled them as HE was THE Passover Lamb the last and ultimate sacrifice. YAHSHUA kept them and i know that they are prophetic rehearsals that Sha'ul talked about as well. Well may the peace of YAHWAH be with you always brother. If you want to see a really great lecture check out Michael Rood's Jonah Code on youtube it's great!!! I love you and thank you for everything you do in this world that's peaceful and helping to your brothers and sisters. We are HIS children and our love for each other is very important,,hahaha i have had to be reminded of that hahaha but i listen to HIM when HE talks most of the time haha i love you brother Post Reply
