Though it takes effort to understand the Bible, doing so can have a powerful, uplifting effect on us.. After his resurrection, Jesus appeared to two of his disciples and spoke to them about Bible prophecies.. Luke account says: " Commencing at Moses and all the Prophets he interpreted to things pertaining to himself in the Scriptures.. What was the result ?
That evening , as they reflected on what they had learned, the disciples said to each other: " Were not our hearts burning as he was speaking to us on the road, as he was fully opening up the scriptures to us ? { Luke 24:13-32}
Understanding God's word gave them pleasure because it strengthened their faith in God's promises and gave them a positive outlook on the future..
Far from being a chore, comeing to understand the word of God is interesting and beneficial , as enjoyable as eating a hearty meal.. What must we do to gain such understanding ? The following article shows how you can enjoy.... " the very knowledge of God." { Proverbs 2:1-5 }
