I look at several things when I am reading a passage of Scripture... 1. What was going on behind the scenes... what questions could the people have asked the author of that book or what provoked the writing of the passage. 2. God's promise, command, warning, character, & nature 3. Applies to studying any part of the bible in general -how does this apply to me today? If I am studying a book of the bible, then I pull out commentaries, a strong's concordance, dictionary in case I want a fuller definition of a particular word, a greek/hebrew lexicon, and my study bible. You have to find a method that most definitely suits you.

I would say the Contemporary English Version (CEV) or New Living Translation (NLT)

talking about singing the song of my heart... i can't seem to get enough of missions. i'm on the missions ministry staff of the church i attend and we are getting ready for a short-term missions trip to the poorest area of Kingston Jamaica. it's a team of 16 and it seems like the day we leave for Jamaica can't come fast enough. we are helping out the missionary couple that we support monthly. missions is so vital. the Lord is not willing that any should perish.

I'm pentecostal, and I attend an Assembly of God church in Boston, Massachusetts. We believe the bible in its entirety. The church I attend is not a counterfeit revival or health and wealth movement. We believe in the purity of God's Word and everything in it.
