There’s no better time spent than reading God’s word. God “talks” to us in
His word, telling us everything we need to know (2 Peter 1:3).
In addition to the reading of God’s word is the need to understand it and
make proper application of it. In Nehemiah 8:8 we read, “So they read
distinctly from the book, in the Law of God; and they gave the sense, and
helped them to understand the reading.” This is accomplished in preaching,
teaching and in writing about God’s word.
This section of “Time With The Bible” will feature articles written by men as
they endeavor to give the sense of a passage and its application. When
reading anything from the pen of men, we all need to do as the Bereans did
of old and for which they were commended. “These were more fair-minded
than those in Thessalonica, in that they received the word with all readiness,
and searched the Scriptures daily to find out whether these things were so.”
(Acts 17:11) In other words, have an open mind and be willing to listen, but
always use God’s word to verify that what is written is true.
We believe you will find the articles to be helpful and relevant for living today.
If you have questions or a disagreement concerning any of the material on
