Do You Even Bible, Bro? Why Bible Study Isn’t About You: Ep. 64
Do you even Bible, bro?
Bible study is not about collecting information, winning arguments, or forcing Scripture to support our opinions. It is about knowing God, seeing Christ clearly, and learning to live according to His Word.
In Episode 64, Jonathan and David discuss how to approach Scripture with humility, consistency, prayer, and a Christ-centered heart. They cover:
• Why the Bible is our authority and spiritual nourishment
• How Scripture reveals God’s character and will
• The importance of prayer and disciplined Bible reading
• The SOAP Bible study method
• Why observation must come before application
• How all Scripture points us toward Christ
• The difference between obedience motivated by love and legalism
• How God’s Word equips us to serve and encourage others
Where else would we go? Jesus has the words of eternal life.
Scriptures discussed: Romans 1, John 5:39, John 6:68, John 14:8–10, Psalm 119:105, Matthew 4:4, 2 Timothy 3:16, and 1 Peter 3:15.
