How to Study Bible

By

Brother Greg McDowell

This is directed toward the new believer, but that doesn’t mean that anyone can’t glean knowledge from it. So, you have just given your life to Jesus Christ and you think now what? To move forward, and become stronger in your faith you need GOD’s Book. A lot of people refer to it as the Good book, His Word, and yes the Holy Bible. They are all those things, but we must think of it as GOD’s Book with our minds when approaching His Book. Our God took the time to write us a book so that we may know Him better. His scripture is a letter of love to us, full of wisdom, and more. So if you are ready let us take this in steps and Go to the School of YHWH.

1. Text book is GOD’s Book
   1. Where you can get your text book (God’s Book) you can
      1. Get one at a local book store (Hard Copy never needs to be charged)

      3. GOD’s Book is supernatural and through it He will speak to you. This is no ordinary book its GOD’s Book,and should be treated, with our deepest regards.
      4. Learning Environment:
         1. Find a quiet place and before you bible study ask for example: God the Father in prayer that through the Holy Spirit, (the Master Teacher) that He will open your heart and life to His Book and His Book to your heart and life. There are many ways you can say this prayer the main thing is it comes from the heart (Oh, just so you know He will know if is not).
