Rightly Dividing the Word of Truth

I believe that more people would study the Bible if they knew more about it and where to begin. The Bible is a big book, and according to some people, it is a book on which no one can agree. However, I suggest to you that the Bible is the Word of God, revealing God’s will for man.

Instead of being one book, the Bible is a library of 66 books, written by about 40 different authors over a period of 1,600 years. The miraculous thing about the Bible is it all fits together to tell a single story of God providing a way of salvation for man. There are no contradictions in the Bible, for it is a perfect book. The problem of disagreement on Scripture is man. The Lord said through the apostle Paul in 2 Timothy 2:15, “Give diligence to present thyself approved unto God, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, handling aright the word of truth.” This demands that we open our Bibles and investigate for ourselves God’s will for man.
