What are 3 Reasons to Study the Bible?

The Bible gives WISDOM

"The fear of the Lord is the beginning of knowledge..."  Proverbs 1:7

"Everyone then who hears these words of mine and does them will be like a wise man who built his house on the rock."   Matthew 7:24

If any of you lacks wisdom, let him ask God, who gives generously to all without reproach, and it will be given him.    James 1:5 

The Bible is TRUTH

Truth is not relative or subjective-it is absolute.

There are more than 230 verses in the Bible mentioning Truth.

“Then you will know the truth, and the truth will set you free.” 

                                                                                          John 8:32

“You are a king, then!” said Pilate.

Jesus answered, “You say that I am a king. In fact, the reason I was born and came into the world is to testify to the truth. Everyone on the side of truth listens to me.”  John 18:37

The Bible gives HOPE for the future. 

Do you long for a life different than the one you are living?

"For I know the plans I have for you,” declares the Lord, “plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you future and a hope.   Jeremiah 29:11

“I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me.”  John 14:6

“These things I have written to you who believe in the name of the Son of God, that you may know that you have eternal life, and that you may continue to believe in the name of the Son of God.” 

1 John 5:13-14

“If you declare with your mouth, 'Jesus is Lord', and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved.”
