Followers of Christ Bible Study

By Daniel Rosan

Many sermons are preached, classroom teaching, or one-on-one intercourse by using this verse or that verse to prove what the speaker's point is. Often, the reference verse may be describing a different situation than what the point is being projected by the instructor, causing the reference to be taken out of continence. This book is not developed to replace your present Bible study but as guide to set up a systematic habit of Bible study. By reading the Bible in order as it is written, you will learn and have the proper insight as to what the Lord is teaching you. If you study in such a way as to use a verse from here or there to prove your own point, you may miss what the Lord's point is.

You can go as fast as you want, but the idea behind this publication is to help you set a steady pace of Bible study that will not tire you or boggle your mind. You should keep you cell phone in hand as it can quickly give you definitions of words and is a great fact finder. Remember, decipher what you read to flush fact from opinions.

You will be guided to study the Old and New Testament during the week and reserve your study for your weekend congregation when you meet with your fellow Christians. May God bless you in your endeavors and your prayer time. Don't forget God, and He won't forget you.

Note the progression stated in the Bible is the same as scientists say it happened: (1) The earth was formless. (2) Light caused vegetation. (3) Then the animals came. (4) Then God made man in His image. Science follows the Bible in the sequence of events.

Second Peter 3:8 is a figure of speech that shows God has no time limitation. There was no twenty-four-hour day on the first day as the world was without form. There wasn't a sun or moon. The days could well be timeless. Many modern-day theologians claim that creation was a twenty-four-hour day. But let's not put limitations on God; He lives in eternal day as well as we will who are in Christ. Creation could be a twenty-four-hour day or billions of years due to time has no limitations on God.
