Hope This Helps.... Someone out there.. For thoses who find it so....
Understanding The Bible... A Pleasure Open To You ...
The Bible contains precious truths from God. It tells us about the purpose of life, the cause of human suffering, and the future of mankind.
It teaches us how to find happiness, how to make friends, and how to deal succesfully with problems. More then that, we learn about our creator and heavenly Father, Jehovah..
Such knowledge brings us delight and gives meaning to our lives.. Takeing in knowledge of God is likened in the Bible to eating.. Jesus said : " Man must live , not on bread alone, but on ever utterance.. comeing forth through Jehovah's mouth.. { Matthew 4:4 , Hebrews 5:12-14 }
Just as eating nourishing food each day is neccesary to keep us alive, so reading God's Word regularly is neccessary for us to benefit from God's promise of everlasting life..
We enjoying eating because of the way we are made and because it fills a basic need... However , we have another basic need that we must care for if we want to be happy...
Jesus said : " Happy are thoses conscious of their spiritual need. " { Matthew 5:3 }
Happiness is possible because that need can be satisfied through an understanding of God's Word...
