Understanding the Bible Before Reading It (ePub)

We all know this life we live is very short and uncertain about our future. In most cases, our life is not long enough for us to gain the wisdom and understanding we need to answer age old questions, such as:

1) Where did I come from?

2) Why am I here?

3) What is the purpose of my life?

4) What happens when I die?

5) Is there life beyond this one?

To seek answers we need to discard the millions of books written by men, sand concentrate our efforts on the one and only book authored by God Himself. We call God's book, the Bible, which some refer to as an acronym meaning: Believers-Instructions-Before-Leaving-Earth! When compared to the Bible, this book, if you decide to read it, contains less than ten-percent of the words in the Bible, and can be read in less than twelve hours, a fraction of the time to read the Bible. Think of this book as primer to help readers who do not fully understand the Bible story, to quickly grasp the key concepts and lessons God wants everyone to learn in order to enjoy the numerous spiritual benefits He has planned for each of our lives while here on earth. We can then later study the Bible aided with much better insight as God takes us deeper into His world.

Once we learn God's ways, and choose to obey Him, we not only get better answers to the questions posed above, but we will also be rewarded with a guarantee of an eternal life after this one ends. Unfortunately, not everyone achieves this goal, and instead of arriving in Heaven, they arrive at another address, called Hell! So, as the author, I urge everyone who is looking for assurance of a wonderful future with Jesus Christ, to take a short hiatus in order to master the Bible now and enjoy its rewards. Remember, only two things on earth are eternal: The souls of men, and the Word of God!
