Prayer: A Wrong Way To Read The Bible

Any Bible study strengthens one’s faith and relationship with God, but in a group, believers can also help each other and strengthen their friendships. Through his word God reveals himself to men and women and teaches them to think and act more like him. With that relationship as a solid foundation, Bible study reinforces one’s faith. Strong faith and knowledge of scripture prepares one to answer others’ questions as well as one’s own. Additionally, by reading the Bible as a group, one gains the perspectives of other believers. Viewing a concept from another person’s point of view often provides insights into difficult passages or stories. By coming together, discussing questions, and listening to each other,

I had always felt that to pray there had to be some eloquent way to convey the things that you wanted to say to God. I also was often frustrated, as I questioned that if God was all knowing, why was it necessary to pray to him and tell him things he already knew. Throughout my time at NCYC I came to understand my relationship with God less like a human and omniscient being relationship, but more as a parent and child relationship. Though He may already know what you have to tell Him, it is about building the communication and the friendship, so that He can work best in your life. The best analogy that I have heard about this was from one of the leaders of the trip, and he compared life to being in a marching band. From the point of view of the musicians, it seems chaotic and as though people are going in every direction for no apparent reason; however, from up

I believe if I devoted more time to reading the scriptures, my faith would become stronger and I would continue to grow in

The value of these efforts is expressed by the African proverb which says: ‘When I pray for bread and I get it, I think at bread and I forgot about God. When I pray for bread and I don’t get it, I think of God.’ More preferred the means of communication that challenge, and not the simple and

Five concepts I find it helpful as I speak with a new a Christian is as follows:

Have you been happy with prayer and with the intimate relationship God during last week? (If they say yes), Wow, I’m happy to hear it. (If some of them nod), Some of you nod..

While attending Korean reformed church, I could redefine Christian worldview based on the Bible; through this work, I saw the diversity of truth because the truth could apply everything, but one of the most significant understand would be knowing the worth of prayer. Through praying, I could confess my sin honestly, and could find my sinful nature again. The reason is that I had been trembling because of the punishment of God, so I repented my sin, but the problem was that I prayed for myself not for God even while I was confessing my sin. Nevertheless, God did not let me perish; let me understood this limitation of sinful man, and let me spiritually communicate with Him as praying. Therefore, personally, the prayer always makes me remind

(Hebrews 10:38 and Romans 1:17). In order to grow our faith daily, the Bible says that “Faith cometh by hearing, and hearing by the Word of God.” (Romans 10:17) You must get into God’s Word through daily reading and study as well as church participation through Sunday School and Preaching Services.

I got very annoyed and was very disturbed when Moore discussed the ordination of women in the Catholic Church; as well as the discussion about changing the words of the Bible and the Lord’s Prayer. First, Moore discusses feminist liberal movements changing the wording of the Bible: “Proffered gender-neutral language, substituting ‘brothers and sisters’ for ‘brothers,’ interpreting the pronoun ‘He’ as the proper noun ‘God,’ and using ‘Our Parent’ instead of ‘Our Father’ in the Lord’s Prayer (Moore 143).
