How to Study the Bible - Intro

Studying the Bible is a crucial element to the Christian life. There are many believers today that believe they can be "good Christians" without possessing sound doctrine that comes from studying the scriptures. 2 Timothy 2:15 (KJV) says, "Study to shew thyself approved unto God, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth." In nearly all other versions of the Bible, and 100% of all modern versions, the word "study" is removed... and this is a shame. God and his words cannot be separated. The way we treat God is the way we treat his book, and the way we treat his book is the way treat God. We must study his word to know God and know what we are to do to glorify him. TRUTH!
