You Can Read Your Bible




Last week, I encouraged you to read the Bible everyday in 2020. Hopefully you took my charge, but if you didn't, then I'm going to charge you to start today. And, Lord willing, I'm going to keep on encouraging you every Monday this year. My plan is to offer a brief encouragement each week for daily Bible reading.

It says in  2 Timothy 3:15, "And that from a child thou hast known the holy scriptures" and what I want you to keep in mind is that's possible for you to read the Bible and know the Scriptures. Don't let the size of the book and the profundity of the content keep you from the fact that you can know the Scriptures. Timothy knew the holy scriptures from a child and he was taught by his mother and grandmother. 

 It doesn’t matter how old or how young you are, the Bible can be read and it can be known. What other book can offer such deep matter that the best minds in all of history have given themselves to the study of this book, and "a child can know the holy Scriptures." There is no other book on Earth that is accessible to children but profound beyond all measure to the greatest minds. There is no other book on Earth that can literally provide a lifelong pursuit of his wisdom.  A book for Kings and children.

Read your Bible.
