How to Understand the Bible

 

1. What is one condition that God sets forth for understanding the Bible? 

Read: Matthew 11:25, 1 Corinthians 3:18-20, 1 Corinthians 1:26-31 

Answer: We must be humble and willing to learn. 

 

2. What is a second condition that God gives for understanding the Bible? 

Read: Isaiah 28:9-10, 1 Corinthians 2:13, Luke 24:27-44 

Answer: We must let the Bible speak for itself by comparing scripture with scripture. We should study everything on a subject to make sure we are not misinterpreting a given subject.

 

3. What is a third condition for understanding the Bible? 

Read: John 16:13, 1 Corinthians 2:10-14 

Answer: We must ask the Holy Spirit to guide us. 

 

4. What is a fourth condition God sets forth for understanding the Bible? 

Read: 2 Thessalonians 2:9-12, Hebrews 4:12, Romans 1:28

5. What is the fifth condition God gives for understanding the Bible? 

Read: Jeremiah 29:13, Matthew 5:6, Isaiah 44:3 

Answer: We must really search the truth. Even if we have all the true principles for studying the Bible, if we do not spend sufficient time for studying, we will not find God’s truth for today.

 

6. What is the sixth condition for understanding the Bible? 

Read: John 8:31-32, John 7:17, Matthew 13:12, Matthew 7:24-27
