The Bible is inspired by God and is useful for teaching the truth, rebuking error, correcting faults, and giving instruction for right living..
so that the person who serves God may be fully qualified and equipped to do every kind of good deed.
1. The Bible is for every culture and race. It does not discriminate.

Bible has all the answers to every question.
3. The
Bible is full of ALL kinds of advice, from money management, how to be wise,
how to be kind, getting along with people, the importance of rest and spending
quality time with your family, how to be a virtuous woman, how to be a man of valour, how to parent your children, amongst others.

Have you ever considered how your children's church was set up before? Are you in the process of choosing a church, please consider the spiritual growth of your children when deciding on a church.
If you already attend a child, please remember to monitor what your children are learning from Children's church.
While the Bible may be full of advice, it can also pose a challenge to read. For some people, getting the most of their Bibles starts with finding the right translation and knowing where to start. Click this link for my daily Bible Study Plan.
There are a number of Bible translations that appeal to all kinds of readers. Nonetheless, the Bible is meant for everyone to be able to read and understand. God wants his Word known to the world.
If you're having trouble reading your Bible and understanding it, spend some time with other translations. Sometimes it takes phrasing things a little differently for us to understand God's word better.
My favourite translations are: God's Word Translation (GWT), New Century Version (NCV) and New International Version (When I first gave my life to Christ, I immersed myself into studying NIV Bible). As a child, I grew up learning and memorising Bible verses with King James Bible Version (KJV).
What's your favourite Bible version?

Hi Myss Lafunky, God bless you for the good job! My favourite version will be KJV but i love the American Standard Version. No 'inspirational' book or devotional should take the place of our Bibles! Thank you for the reminder as to the importance of the studying the Bible.
ReplyDeleteThank you for your comment. I definitely agree with you that we should not replace our bibles with devotional and inspirational books, although devotional books could be used as a tool for us to read/study our bibles. Don't you struggle with all the 'thou, thee, standeth, runneth' in King James Version? I haven't heard of American Standard Version, I will check it out.
DeleteSowie! English Standard Version. Don't know why i said 'American' Lol... KJV isn't a struggle for me at all... (although i keep a few other versions handy!!!)
DeleteMe again. Just to clarify pls. There is ASV- American Standard Version but ESV is 'easier' for me though.
DeleteI will check both versions, it is likely to be useful when I'm digging into the Word. Thank you.
