The Bible Talks about KNOWING THE BIBLE.



 GOD EXPECT US TO KNOW THE BIBLE WELL.
DEUTERONOMY 17:19. Read it daily.
DEUTERONOMY 1 1:18. Lay it up in your heart and in your soul.
ACTS 17:1 1. Search it daily.
      (God expects us to learn what He is telling us.)


WHY MUST WE KNOW THE BIBLE WELL?
1. (We must be able to give a good answer when our faith is questioned.)
   I PETER 3.-15. "...set apart Christ as Lord. Always be prepared to give
an answer to everyone who asks you to give a reason for the hope
(expectations) that you have."

2. (We must avoid wrong teachings. But how can we know what is wrong unless
we first know what is right?)
ROMANS 16:17  "Now I urge you, brethren, note those who cause divisions and
offenses, contrary to the doctrine which you learned, and avoid them."
HEBREWS13:9  "Do not be carried about with various and strange doctrines.
For it is good that the heart be established by grace, not with foods which
have not profited those who have been occupied with them."


WE ARE TO KEEP LEARNING UNTIL WE ARE WELL LEARNED.
 ACTS 2:42  "And they continued steadfastly in the apostles' doctrine and
fellowship, in the breaking of bread, and in prayers".
HEBREWS 6:1  "Therefore, leaving the discussion of the elementary
principles of Christ, let us go on to perfection,...."

WHAT WILL BE THE RESULT OF KNOWING THE BIBLE WELL?

EPHESIANS4:14  "....that we should no longer be children, tossed to and
fro and carried about with every wind of doctrine, by the trickery of men,
in the cunning craftiness by which they lie in wait to deceive,..."

HOW WELL DO YOU KNOW THE BIBLE?
Do you know the Bible well enough to:
   1. Have a belief and defend your belief?
   2. Give the Good News of salvation to someone?
   3. Can you make a sound BIBLICAL choice between:
         a).Baptize infants - Baptize adults only?
         b).There will be a 1000 years of peace - There will not be a 1000
         years of peace?
         c).Salvation is guaranteed to the believer - Salvation can be
lost?
         d).God has forsaken Israel - God has not forsaken Israel?
And other questions that cause debate?


DO YOU KNOW BIBLE PASSAGES THAT WILL GIVE YOU INSPIRATION AND COMFORT IN
TIME OF NEED?

To learn the truths of the Bible well requires time and effort, much
reading and the use of various helps.

This Bible newsletter, "Bible Talks," is meant to save time and effort in
learning what God is telling you. Bible Talks helps in two ways:

    1. For each topic discussed, Bible passages that have to do with that
topic are brought together from various sections of the Bible. This
saves you much searching time and gives you a total overview of the topic.
    2. Every question, statement or comment made is immediately followed by
Bible passages so that you can see for yourself why the answer or comment
could be made. The Bible Talks for itself.

NOTE:
     Bible Talks is not meant to replace the need for you to read the Bible
on a regular basis. Bible Talks cannot possibly cover everything in the
Bible.
Important and beautiful portions would be missed by you.
