Studying the bible.
Okay, so we think we know Jesus.
We know that Jesus is good.
We know that Jesus is the son of God.
We know that Jesus creates miracles.
We know that Jesus lives in us every single day.
We know to ask ourselves, "What would Jesus do?"
But do we really know him?
I thought I did. I don't know. And that's okay. Because I'm so in love with God, I'm willing to learn more about Jesus and His actual history. I don't even know the backbone and structure of the Bible. I didn't find out till last week that the Bible was composed of 40 different authors over thousands of years.
Imagine that! 40 different authors over that time period. If you think about it, it really proves the Bible's worth and accuracy. I mean, more than 40 people over the years had the same message about God.
Think about it this way. If we were given the topic of what a first ideal date would be, and 40 different people were asked to write a story. We would come up with completely different, opposing, and ideas of what a "first date" would be. But not when it came to God. IT WAS ALL THE SAME.
Sure, I read the Bible... but there is a difference from scanning/memorizing, and actually reading. I think studying the Bible (like ACTUALLY study) is something I'd love to get into.
