I want to encourage all who are studying the Bible. The Bible is an in-depth study. The more we study, the more that is revealed to us by the power of the Holy Spirit.
So, I'm not wanting to "overload anybody's donkey" - if things aren't gelling for you, that's okay. Just put that thought on the shelf for now - but keep studying. When you come back to it later it will make perfect sense.
Each time we re-read a book of the Bible over again, God sees and reveals what He knows we need to know. But don't stop learning! It's so important for all of us to know what God's word says.**
He wrote us a letter - are we going to take time to read it? Yes, and with understanding!
So let's keep working at it. You'll be so glad you did.
