Myth, 124

 ~ You Need Lots of Time to Study the Bible ~

 

Myth  ~  It is true that our lives are busy and it often seems impossible to add more to our schedules. 

 

Realities  ~  (1) We all have the same 24 hours each day which males it not a matter of time but rather an issue of priority.  (2) Even a small amount of time on a regular Bible provides significant gain in understanding Scripture.  (3) A small amount of time daily (even only 10-15 minutes) typically results in more gain than a large amount of time separated by big gaps before another large of amount of study.    

 

Scripture  ~  “The law of the Lord is perfect, converting the soul; the testimony of the Lord is sure, making wise the simple; the statutes of the Lord are right, rejoicing the heart; the commandment of the Lord is pure, enlightening the eyes; the fear of the Lord is clean, enduring forever; the judgments of the Lord are true and righteous altogether.  More to be desired are they than gold, yea, than much fine gold; sweeter also than honey and the honeycomb.  Moreover by them Your servant is warned, and in keeping them there is great reward” (Psalm 19:7-11).

 

 

“How can a young man cleanse his way?  By taking heed according to Your Word.  With my whole heart I have sought You; oh, let me not wander from Your commandments!  Your word I have hidden in my heart, that I might not sin against You” (Psalm 119:9-11).
