The Bible is not a book; it’s a library. And it was written thousands of years ago, in three different languages, by dozens of different authors and in multiple genres of literature. As you would expect, it can be very hard to understand at times, and we can easily get lost or turned around as we work through it.

But by reading the teachings of Jesus, it becomes clear that if we misunderstand Scripture it can do great damage to our souls and society. Jesus himself spent a lot of time correcting common misreadings of Scripture. But the reverse is also true: If we understand what thelibrary of Scripture is saying to us, it can enlarge and enrich our lives in profound ways.

But for that to happen, we need study.
