I don't know where to start. I have started by just reading the bible a couple of passages at a time. But I am just reading it a if I were reading a novel (I'm not meaning to offend here). I have looked online for bible study tools and it is just giving me a passage a day. Today I have read Gen 1-4 I would like to look more into what each passage means. To be able to make notes etc
I hope I have helped you to help me. But I think it is because I am venturing this alone because I don't go out very often and because I have 2 small children under 4 I have limited time I can use for study.
Three helps are required for quick learning as the verses explain??
Matt. 4:4
[
4] But he answered and said, It is written,
Man shall not live by bread alone,
but by every word that proceedeth out of the mouth of God.
(That includes all of the Lords WORD, and that is mindboggeling huh? But wait, there is more understandings!
)
2 Tim. 3
[
16]
All scripture is given by inspiration of God, and
is profitable for doctrine, for
reproof,
for correction, for
instruction in righteousness:
(OK: first we have need of all being Believed! Now 'think' of the following Words! The verse is singling out the Word of
[DOCTRINE] & the rest of my hightlited Words. This was your question perhaps? Now notice the last requirement for how 'we' are to get the 'correction'
of how to Study!??)
Man says
read? (like a book!) Don't run! But
that is not how God has Inspired of us to know the above! Isa. 28 tell's us of even these ones. The
'table' is where we are to get fed, the church, right? Notice here in
Isa. 28 for how we are to learn True doctrine, + being corrected!
and grow & MATURE!!
[
7] But
they also have erred through wine, and through
strong drink are out of the way; the priest and the prophet have erred through strong drink, they are swallowed up of wine, they are out of the way through strong drink; they err in vision, they stumble in judgment. (that of false doctrine)
[
8] For
all tables are full of vomit and filthiness, so that there is no place clean. (what does one read in Rev. 17:1-5 + Jer. 17:5?)
[
9]
Whom shall [[he teach knowledge?]] and whom shall he make to understand doctrine? them that are weaned from the milk, and drawn from the breasts.
(
OK: Here comes your sincere question, answered!)
[
10] For
precept must be upon precept,
precept upon precept;
line upon line, line upon line;
here a little, and there a little:
Think of the Bible as seen in Isa. 8:20 with the 66 books being
like court 'testimony' & penned truthfully
as the holy spirit had them see the vision. Each would pen the 'sight' in his own words of discribing of them. Now think of just one 'doctrine' (perhaps about where satan came from?) So what we need to do, is to go through the Bible & pick out the verses on just this one subject (we the jury!
)
& put them down like the pieces of a puzzel, and when we have them, we can now put the puzzel together & see the Correct picture. And Rev. 12 has several names for satan seen there! And he the serpent was seen there in the Gen. Garden first!
--Elijah
