Q&A for How to Study the Bible

It would depend on your reading pace, speed, and how much comprehension you want to achieve. Reading the entire Bible will take a different amount of time. If you like to plan a routine, you can make use of the "Read the Bible in a Year" option available in the Bible App. The app will give you daily readings that will help you read the Bible completely in one year.

Through reading the Bible, you can read about the death of Jesus Christ, which is the Bible's most important lesson. Through Jesus's death, sinners can find relief from their sins that keep them away from God. Reading about Jesus's experiences can help you participate in a miraculous transformation into a child of God.

A few popular Bible study apps include Bible by Life.church, Bible.IS, and Bible Gateway. These apps boast a variety of translations as well as features such as bookmarking, notes, and highlighting. Some also allow you to set up your own reading plans.

That depends on your focus and what you are trying to get from your reading. You may find it helpful to focus on a particular theme or to divide your reading up into smaller pieces (such as individual books, chapters, or verses). Think about what you are hoping to learn or what insights you are trying to gain about either yourself or the material. You might also find it helpful to take notes, since this can help you clarify your thinking and retain information better.

If you are always falling asleep because you are too tired, maybe try studying first thing in the morning. Try going to sleep earlier and then waking up earlier and doing your study during or before breakfast. It can be hard at the end of the day to squeeze God in, but it's easy and you'll never forget if you make it a habit in the morning.

Sometimes God gives you what you've asked for immediately. Sometimes, he says to wait and be patient, and that what you've asked for will come later when it is the right time.

Your boyfriend was in lust with you. Many people mistake lust (desire for premarital/extramarital sex) for love. You did what is right in God's sight. Pray for a man who is a believer and will follow God and think with the head on his shoulders. Looks fade; people's flaws show when you get to know them; but a heart for Jesus will keep a spouse attractive and cover those flaws with love.

The Bible tells us that we can only divorce if there is sexual immorality involved. Sit down with your husband and explain to him kindly how you feel and ask him how he feels. Remember, all things work together for good to those who love God, so no matter what happens, God will use it for the good of His kingdom.

They are apps or websites where you can search for a specific verse in the Bible. These can be a quite helpful tool!

You can start wherever you like, but just keep in mind that every time you read a passage, God will increase your understanding and reveal new truths. You may have heard the Gospels before, but you don't know all the truth they contain.

Start reading the Gospel first, as it tells the story of Jesus. Alternatively, you could start at the beginning and read the Bible from cover to cover. Not many people do this.

Pray to him and tell him whatever is on your heart. Just make yourself open to him.

There are a lot of guides and commentaries available to help you understand. Reading a different version is a good idea, especially if you are stuck on something complicated like the King James version. I'd suggest the NIV or the Message version for better comprehension.

The fact that he's reading and praying with you is a great start. He's got to find his own way to God.

Pace yourself. Split the passages up, or read 75 the first day and the remaining 75 the next day.

The most important thing you can do is to continue to uplift them in prayer. As we know the greatest hope, and the reason we have hope at all is Jesus, and it can be difficult to convey this message across. However, even if they don't believe, that doesn't mean they won't be encouraged by a Psalm or Proverb, a verse that speaks to what they are going through in life.

The Holy Spirit gives you the gift of faith. If you believe, then you have received the Holy Spirit. Welcome to the Christian faith!

Find yourself an accountability partner, someone you trust that can keep things between you and them, tell them what you have done and ask them to keep track of you. Whenever you feel like falling back into your old ways, give them a call and have them help talk you out of it and pray with them. Asking God for help is necessary, but asking a friend for help is often very useful as well.

According to life expectancy and marital age at that time, Mary is said to have been about 12-15 years old when she gave birth to Jesus.

Ask God to help you. You don't need to know the Bible cover to cover or be a pastor to share the good news about who Jesus is and what He's done for you. Share from your personal experience about how Jesus has changed your life. Learn some key scriptures. All God needs is a willing heart, and you clearly have that!

Study the Bible every day and try memorizing some verses. Pray, and ask God to help you understand the truth of His word.

The Bible doesn't say. It jumps from Cain's banishment and stay in Nod to his sexual relations with his wife. We probably don't know where his wife came from, or where Nod the city came from, or where everyone else came from. Maybe God created more people like He did Adam and Eve. Perhaps Adam and Eve had other children who were not mentioned specifically, who multiplied over the many years Adam, Eve, and their first children were alive.

Find other strong Christians you trust and ask them to pray for you; it sounds like is the devil is trying to hinder you. Don't let him! Jesus will fight for you if you trust him. Satan often tries to discourage us, even in seemingly small ways like this. I've felt Satanic opposition before, and the best way to drive him away is to speak/sing praises to God. Satan will actually go away if you command him in the name of Jesus and speak God's praises. But don't go it alone, ask other Christians for their prayers!

You can obey God teaching by putting on the whole Armor of God, read the Bible daily and begin studying the Word of God daily. To change from one state to another, you must get out of the mindset that you used to have and control all things that come your way that you know in your heart are wrong. You may need to get into a church were it is uplifting to you. Get around individuals who add value to your life and enrich it. Find one friend or family member who wants you to be happy and have all that your heart desires. Hang out with that individual for several months until you see yourself changing for the good.

Roman Catholicism a very complex religion, so there are lots of books to provide information, history and guidance.

Yes, that should not change anything. Jesus loved and accepted everyone and he would want you to do the same.
