Bible Question: I am new to the Word and would like some pointers as to where I should start. I'm interested in understanding and I'm at a loss for resources. Can you please help. Thank you. |
Bible Answer: The best advice I could give would be to buy a good study Bible and start with the New Testament and read it through several times. I use about four diff. Translations but the one that I think is the best is the New American Standard. Pray before you study and confess any known sin in your life, so that God the Holy Spirit can teach you His truth. The footnotes help but just remember, they are not inspired by God. The best way to understand God's Word is by the rest of His word. I.e. He does not contradict Himself. (Psalm 119:160 a) The sum of Your Word is truth. CDBJ |
