Download or read book ABOUT THE BIBLE written by Ervin Roberts and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2012-09-21 with total page 290 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: My purpose for writing this study is not to dazzle you with a lot of theories but to get you to ask what does the Bible say not what does men say it says. Sense I am just a simple country preacher I have tried to keep this study as simple as possible. My hope is this study will lead people to a better understanding of what God is and has been trying to tell mankind. I want those that use this study guide to come away from it with a better knowledge of the purpose of each and every book of the Bible. Lets begin by looking at the very basics. The Bible is 66 different book written by many different writers over a period of 1500 to 2000 years. What that means is it is one book that took a lot of writers a long time to write. Every book in the Bible has a purpose and it will be the purpose of this study to explore what that purpose might be. The basic question we will be trying to answer of each book is "Why did God place this book in the Bible?". We will not be doing an in-depth theology study of the contends of each book but rather we will be looking at the reason that the book is in the Bible. Each and every book is special and tells us something we need to know to be able to fulfill God’s will on this earth. Each book of the Bible is important and has a reason for being in the Bible. I know that there are some books that are hard to understand so are seldom read. That doses not mean that they should not be studied it means that we should try harder to find out what God was saying we should not just set those books aside as not of any use. The truth is the Bible without all of it’s parts is not the Bible. The only way to study the Bible is first pray for guidance and second allow the Holy Spirit to guide you.

Download or read book How the Bible Came to be written by John W. Miller and published by Paulist Press. This book was released on 2004 with total page 210 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Bible comprises a large array of books, teachings, and stories woven into a longer narrative that opens with creation and ends with a vision of creation renewed. Although it is the best selling book in history, and notwithstanding its vast popularity and importance, very few of its readers have any idea who actually wrote its various segments or how they came to be assembled into the sacred work we know today. Moreover, history has shown that it can be wrongly interpreted with devastating consequences. In HOW THE BIBLE CAME TO BE, John W. Miller has written the first detailed study of the form and message of the Bible as a whole, along with carefully documented information on how, when, and why its diverse components were assembled. His pathbreaking work puts readers in touch, for the first time, with the intent and goals of those who created this large body of sacred scriptures. Taken together, the information in HOW THE BIBLE CAME TO BE shows how an awareness of the factors at play in the Bible's formation can greatly enrich our understanding and appreciation of the sacred scriptures and their major components. Since it is both historically objective and theologically meaningful, this work is ideally suited for introducing the Bible in college, university, or seminary courses. Its ecumenical approach should make it of interest to anyone wanting a better understanding of the Bible and its origins. +
