KNOWING YOUR BIBLE July 10, 2022: Dear Friends, Welcome to this blog on learning and knowing the Bible. Many blogs have been written through the years that, if studied and contemplated on by its readers, an increase in understanding and knowledge in learning the Bible will be had. Words written in this blog are not intended to give instruction on how to interpret the Bible, but to teach one how to use and study the Bible. Past readers of this blog should have learned how to search for and find specific Bible verses to read, learned the names and locations of the Bible books and learned to understand how the Bible books are related to each other. To review this current series on acquiring biblical knowledge, go to the website, Keegan Books. com and, beginning with the April 24th blog, progress forward to today’s blog. Spend some time on each week’s blog so that one will become comfortable and knowledgeable in reading and studying the Bible. We have finished our focus on relating the Bible books through geographic sites that transverse throughout the books of the Bible. In next few studies on learning the Bible, the focus will be on words and ideas that are found throughout the Bible books, relating the books to each other. Through this study on specific words and ideas that are found in book after book, one will realize that this is God’s way of teaching us through his Holy Word. Words will be listed with Bible verses to be searched for and read, allowing the reader to gain knowledge and perspective when reading and studying the Bible. MAY GOD BLESS YOUR BIBLE STUDY THIS WEEK!
