How should Christians read the Bible? In this message from Luke 24, we learn how Jesus Himself teaches His disciples to understand Scripture—and how that same approach can transform the way we read our Bibles today.
On the road to Emmaus, the risen Christ opens the Scriptures for two discouraged disciples and shows them that God speaks through words, with precision, to real people in real history, with one intended meaning that ultimately points to Him. As Jesus explains the Law and the Prophets, confused hearts are warmed, weary faith is restored, and obedient lives are set in motion.
This sermon explores how to study the Bible the way Jesus wants you to—not as a confusing religious task, but as a life-giving encounter with the living Savior. You’ll discover why context matters, why careful reading is essential, how all Scripture fits together around Christ, and why Bible study should always lead to belief, obedience, and joy.
If you’ve ever felt intimidated by the Bible, discouraged in your reading, or unsure how to understand Scripture faithfully, this message offers clarity, encouragement, and practical help rooted in the gospel.
