[quote:MarcMcRoy:MV8zODgyMTgzXzY5OTMyOTI5XzE4MjdCN0Qz] [quote:MrIol:MV8zODgyMTgzXzY5OTI4ODQxXzEzQjkzQjg0] To elaborate, this is how a christian or someone who has actually read/reads the bible would speak on the topic. "How many times have you read the bible?" "lol! no clue. Have read Matthew,Mark,Luke and John probably a few hundred times overall. Revelation 30 or 40 times. Genesis 20 or 30 times. Exodus about the same. The epistles 20 or something. Psalms and Proverbs on and off so many times who can count." "Yeah but how many times have you actually read the whole thing?" "no clue" Thats how that question would be answered. Never "I have read the bible 3 times!" Massive red flag and certainly just a liar lying. [/quote] That’s not always true...if you have ever been in a stretch of time, don’t always assume you know everything..you don’t. Forward at least twice as a book and backwards once..yes every word of the King James backwards... Once again there are many many hidden jewels there. [/quote]
Original Message
I'd like to hear your advice on how to approach reading it from cover to cover, free of the personal biased interpretation I have on it right now... (Growing up Catholic and having it essentially dissected and read for me). By reading it by myself and for myself, I hope to gain a much more sincere, original, unbiased and truer perspective/connection to it and what it means in my life.
Thanks
