Bible Question:
I would like to start studing the Bible sothat I can grow spiritually. Where do I begin? |
Bible Answer: Witp, Welcome! I would recommend starting with a Gospel. Most people usually recommend John which is good. I recommend Luke because it flows into The Acts of the Apostles, also written by Luke. Use a good bible with cross references and use them to see related passages in the Old Testament and other portions of the New Testament. Then I recommend Genesis, Exodus,Numbers, Joshua, Judges, 1 Samuel,2 Samuel, 1 Kings, 2 Kings, Ezra, Nehemiah. That sequence will give you a good chronological sequence through the Old Testament history of salvation. If your are the type who must start at the beginning, then start with Genesis and Luke together. take your time and do not try to do it all at once. Set a daily pace you can easily achieve and not be discouraged. Try one chapter of the Old and one chapter of the New Testament daily and then meditate and pray over what you have read. It will be a blessing for you. Emmaus |
