How to Read the Bible

So there is much that can be done to make your reading of the Bible productive. Read to understand. Get the overall view. When advisable dig out background material to enhance appreciation. Consider prophetic import. Isolate principles that are a guide to your daily living and scriptures that will aid you in your ministry. Ask questions as you read, and let association help you answer them


If you do not understand some material do not pass it over as if it were unimportant. God has not recorded material in the Bible that is dispensable. What is provided is for our instruction to guide us in making decisions and living according to the divine will. Do not show disrespect for God by passing over material you do not understand. Do research, going to an index in one of the Watch Tower publications. Take time to read the Bible with understanding.

A visit to The Gentle Barn, Knoxville, Tennessee Was a real treat to visit The Gentle Barn in Tennessee.  http://www.gentlebarn.org/tennessee/ Caring workers and volunteers taking such excellent care of animals that have been severely injured, neglected, and sometimes emotionally abused. One of the highlights is Dudley the cow. His story is seen in a 17 minute video, The Dudley Story . Hard to watch but well worth seeing how this animal is now helping others (especially children) to heal from physical and emotional wounds.
