I reccomend start in John and then read a chapter of the Old Testament and New Testament back and forth until you read all of The Holy Bible.

Know the four gospels,they are pretty easy and covered much in church.

Spend a lot of time from Romans to Jude; this teachs you how to live the life, and what is expected of a true Christian.

Get tapes, or C.D.'s, and listen as you would a story till the plot is familiar, and you will recognize when someone is in error! Listen at home, in the car, at work if possible!

Write important things down and research words and their meanings with the internet or a concordance ! Pray earnestly to hunger and thirst to intimately know God; because He only reveals Himself to those who diligently seek Him!

Check out the cross references with the old testament shadows, and see Christ working to reveal Himself in both old and new testaments !

Agape; Ephraim.

I too would recommend that you start in John. Get a version that is easy to understand too. I love the New King James myself. Enjoy. :emot-highfive:

First, Moosegirl, congratulations on wanting to read the Bible. <_< God's word will help you through everything you are dealing with in this life.

I would recommend starting with the gospel of John. Knowing Jesus will help you as you study the rest of the Bible. A One Year Bible is good also to ensure that you learn the whole counsel of God by reading the Bible Chapter by Chaper & Verse by Verse.

Very important also is that you join a good Bible teaching church. It is important to be tied in with other believers who can help you in your growth with the Lord. I am a new believer (2 years this New Year) and the Lord has been growing me by leaps and bounds. I don't think that would have happened if I hadn't joined a church with mature believers who were there to teach me and to guide me in my walk.

May the Lord be with you as you walk with Him. God Bless.

Start with the four Gospels Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John, then go to Acts and Romans I guess...then read some other New Testament books...then after that check out Psalms and some Old Testament books.

    • You are coming up higher in this season – above the assignments of character assassination and verbal arrows sent to manage you, contain you, and derail your purpose. Where you have had your dreams and sleep robbed, as well as your peace and clarity robbed – leaving you feeling foggy, confused, and heavy – God is, right now, bringing freedom back -- now you will clearly see the smoke and mirrors that were set to distract you and you will disengage.

      Right now God is declaring a "no access zone" around you, and your enemies will no longer have any entry point into your life. Oil is being poured over you to restore the years that the locust ate and give you back your passion. This is where you will feel a fresh roar begin to erupt from your inner being, and a call to leave the trenches behind and begin your odyssey in your Christ calling moving you to bear fruit that remains as you minister to and disciple others into their Christ identity.

      This is where you leave the trenches and scale the mountain to fight from a different place, from victory, from peace, and from rest. Now watch as God leads you up higher above all the noise, above all the chaos, and shows you where you have been seated all along with Him in heavenly places where you are UNTOUCHABLE. This is where you leave the soul fight, and the mind battle, and learn to fight differently.

      You will know how to live like an eagle and lead others to the same place of safety and protection that God led you to, which broke you out of the silent prison you were in. Put your war boots on and get ready to fight back! Refuse to lay down -- get out of bed and rebuke what is coming at you. Remember where you are seated and live from that place.

      Acts 1:8 - “But you will receive power when the Holy Spirit has come upon you, and you will be my witnesses … to the end of the earth.”

    • George Whitten, the visionary behind Worthy Ministries and Worthy News, explores the timing of the Simchat Torah War in Israel. Is this a water-breaking moment? Does the timing of the conflict on October 7 with Hamas signify something more significant on the horizon?

    • Understanding the Enemy!

      I thought I write about the flip side of a topic, and how to recognize the attempts of the enemy to destroy lives and how you can walk in His victory!

      For the Apostle Paul taught us not to be ignorant of enemy's tactics and strategies.

      2 Corinthians 2:112  Lest Satan should get an advantage of us: for we are not ignorant of his devices. 

      So often, we can learn lessons by learning and playing "devil's" advocate.  When we read this passage,

      Mar 3:26  And if Satan rise up against himself, and be divided, he cannot stand, but hath an end. 
      Mar 3:27  No man can enter into a strong man's house, and spoil his goods, except he will first bind the strongman; and then he will spoil his house. 

      Here we learn a lesson that in order to plunder one's house you must first BIND up the strongman.  While we realize in this particular passage this is referring to God binding up the strongman (Satan) and this is how Satan's house is plundered.  But if you carefully analyze the enemy -- you realize that he uses the same tactics on us!  Your house cannot be plundered -- unless you are first bound.   And then Satan can plunder your house!

    • Abraham and Issac: Pictures of the Resurrection, Part 2
      Shalom everyone,

      As we continue this series the next obvious sign of the resurrection in the Old Testament is the sign of Isaac and Abraham.

      Gen 22:1  After these things God tested Abraham and said to him, "Abraham!" And he said, "Here I am."
      Gen 22:2  He said, "Take your son, your only son Isaac, whom you love, and go to the land of Moriah, and offer him there as a burnt offering on one of the mountains of which I shall tell you."

      So God "tests" Abraham and as a perfect picture of the coming sacrifice of God's only begotten Son (Yeshua - Jesus) God instructs Issac to go and sacrifice his son, Issac.  Where does he say to offer him?  On Moriah -- the exact location of the Temple Mount.
