· Paul Harvey is quoted as saying, “Men do not reject the Bible because it contradicts
itself, but because it contradicts them.” How does verse 16 affirm Paul Harvey’s view of
the Bible?
· According to this verse, what are the four benefits of Scripture in the life of the believer?
· What is the result of those benefits?
· The fourth benefit of Scripture is “training or discipline in righteousness.” If you have sensed weaknesses in your own journey in righteousness, how could reading, meditating, studying, listening to, and memorizing God’s Word help you?
Ben's thoughts:
I have tried a few different ways to do each of these. One method that John MacArthur suggests in The MacArthur Study Bible: Revised & Updated Edition
is to read a passage of approximately 7 chapters every day for a month. Doing this you will read the New Testament in 3 years. You aren't trying to memorize the text, but by meditating on that same text each day for a month you will become essentially a human concordance of the New Testament. There are some other good ways to learn scripture. One method I tried when I first received Christ was Topical Memory System Package: Life Issues (Topical Memory System)
