How to Study the Bible for Yourself

Great book ! A lot to learn in the book. So thankful I have it Gave me the direction to study the Bible I was searching for

I picked up this book after readimg Lahaye's Spiritual Temperaments book. I thought it was one of those usual "how to study the Bible" books but I was pleasantly surprised. Since I started reading it, I didn't stop until I was done. Highly recommend especially for new or young believers who need simple and godly guidance. Also backslidden ones who just need to get back in line. God is truly faithful and merciful.

Just what I needed

This study guide is well thought out, organize, easy to read and comprehend the information to enhance your overall understanding of the Bible!

This is a good book for getting acquainted with studying the scriptures! I held a Bible study with this book as the text but the problem was the work pages were a bit small! Getting the students to do the in-depth tracking of their progress on a daily basis was not as successful! We did get into the scriptures with it and cultivating the idea of personal study was motivating but only for a while! All the work involved with getting through, (though one soul did give her life to the Lord) didn't seem to appeal to those in the digital, cell phone, tv age as much as those from my generation. Everything written down kind of thing! Adult students these days don't even like writing home, less know facts about themselves written out for perhaps, all to see!

Good purchase

I am leading a Bible study with young people on how to study the Bible and purchased this book for that purpose. When I purchased this, I searched for and did not find a listing of the Table of Contents, so I am including them here:1. You Can Understand the Bible2. What Bible Study Will Do For You3. How to Read the Bible4. Methods of Bible Reading5. What to Read in the Bible6. The Bible: The World's Greatest Library7. How to Study the Bible by Books8. How to Study the Bible by Chapters9. How to Study the Bible with Subject Analysis10. Tools for Bible Study11. Hermeneutics12. Accelerating the Learning Process13. It's a Matter of Time14. How to Disciple Yourself Through Bible Study15. How to Disciple OthersAfter having looked it over thoroughly, I feel it will be an asset to groups or individuals who wish to learn effective ways of studying the Bible. This book will provide understanding of how you can learn directly from God's Word. Along with a Bible and a set of highlighters, I feel this would make a great gift for a new Christian.

I've participated in Bible studies. I've led Bible studies. I really enjoy Bible studies. But, until I read this book, I had a difficult time being able to engage in personal study without some sort of guide.LaHaye provides great advice and instruction on how to gain a better understanding of God's word through self-directed Bible study. Studying the Bible involves more than just reading a few passages now and then and LaHaye shows you how you can carefully and methodically engage yourself in an enjoyable and enriching study of the Bible.When I lead Bible studies, I often suggest others in the class use techniques described in this book to gain further understanding in their at-home studies.Great book. Highly recommended.

If you want to get more serious about bible study, then this is definitely the book for you. LaHaye starts by very clearly laying out the reasons why we should be more serious about our study of the bible. He then sets out a plan for reading the bible through. This is no quick fix method but is detailed and thorough, and designed to allow you to immerse yourself in the bible. The first book he recommends you read is 1 John. You read this once a day for seven days, asking yourself questions and looking for what God is saying to you in 4 key areas. Alongside this is a plan for memorising bible verses. As I say this is not for people,who,want to,just read the bble, but for those who are serious about immersing themselves in Gods word and hearing what he wants to say to you today.

this is the type of book that you need time to go through. I have started it and so far I am finding that this is going to help me study well and grow spiritually

I would recommend this book to read by any Christian. 15 minutes method is really working with me

I have been a christian for years and i can suggest this book to any reader who wants a fresh approach to studying the bible.In the two months that i have been reading the book, i have bought another copy for someone else and will continue to buy for anyone who needs a frsh approach to studying the bible.I have even gone ahead to order one of the reccomended books.I particularly enjoy the scripture learning aspect.Dont hesitate to buy it.

This book is a systematically written book to help individual to read the bible and understand it for himself/herself. I share the view that the bible was written for even little children to understand it. Therefore one should not wait for a minister to read the bible before he/she can understand. Will recommend the book to everyone
