Before I became a Christian, reading the Bible is far from what I could think of doing. Because I thought that the Bible is so hard to understand. And somehow, what I was taught of is that the bible should only be read by someone who's inspired by the Holy Spirit and has a deep knowledge of the kingdom of heaven. Had the myth that not just anyone should open the bible and read. And that there are only chosen people that should read and teach others about the bible. When I studied the Bible and became a Christian, that's when I knew that the Bible is for everyone. Not just the priests or theologians or pastors. It is the love letter of God to all of us. I learned that the bible is not hard to understand after all. It talks about life, God's love to us, salvation, forgiveness, the kingdom of God and more. The word of God should be our ultimate source of hope and strength in a world that's full of chaos. In the bible, you can find wisdom and solutions to any problem about parenting, marriage, friendship, relationship, work or no work, even handling finances. Do you know that the bible is sooo relatable to us now even after being written thousands of years ago? That's so awesome!
That's why it's a great blessing that the church of God put up this online bible study. Be not intimidated coz you'll be guided with the keys to understand the bible and how to approach the bible with the proper attitude. There's also Bible study designed for the teens. They've also provided a bible reading schedule with deeper insights on the Scriptures for the more matured Christians. Now anyone can study the Bible anywhere as long as there's an internet.
