Most Christians don’t
The Psalmist writes,
“Show me your ways, O LORD, teach me your paths; guide me in your truth and teach me, for you are God my Saviour, and my hope is in you all day long.” Psalm 25:4,5.
Over the years I’ve met many Christians that I don’t believe study the Bible. They may read it but they don’t study it.
Many times I’ve asked the question to fellow Christians “why do you believe what you believe” only to get the reply “well such and such an evangelist, or pastor said it was that way”
This should not be so. We need to study the scriptures for ourselves to truly understand what they mean. To see if the evangelist, or pastor we are listening to is truly presenting the scriptures correctly.
The apostle Paul wrote to Timothy saying,
“Do your best to present yourself to God as one approved, a workman who does not need to be ashamed and who correctly handles the word of truth. 2Timothy 2:15.
We can only do this if we are studying the word of God for ourselves to see if what we believe and have been taught is indeed correct.
Please think about it.
