Study (In Second Timothy 2:15) We are told to study to show thyse0 comments Study (In Second Timothy 2:15) We are told to study to show thyself or ourselves approved unto God, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth. (KJV) In the book by Tim Lahaye "(How to Study the Bible for Yourself)" At the very first of the book he says “study the Bible for only 15 minuets a day and you grow in faith. That is a pretty bold statement, but it is a true statement. In Ephesians chapter six we are told to show or feet with the preparation of the gospel with peace. You might say you can quote the scriptures about this or that, but to some there is actually no meaning to them at all. What I mean to say about that is they have just not received the understanding. They are trying to read the Bible not study the bible. You can see the correlation of the story of these two Disciples of Christ. After the Death of Jesus, when you read this story, you see two disciples walking on a road to Emmaus when Jesus appeared to them, talking between them. He asked what manner of communication you are talking. Well not to draw out the conversation, please read (Luke chapter 24)! And hopefully you will understand my meaning. In other words they were Jesus' s disciples; he didn't let them know who he was, even though the things Jesus taught them burned in their heart. My understanding of this is even if you don't understand its Jesus talking; the words should still burn into your heart. You may learn at a small pace, you many not become a Johnny Hunt, a Frank Shelton, Perry Jordan, or even a Dr. David Jeremiah. You can be you, the one that God chose you to be. So go at your own speed, don't try to hurry along, you just might miss something. Posted by Preacher Perry Jordan at 10:53 AM 0 comments
I am a family man who is a pastor of a Southern Baptist Church. I was born in Douglasville Ga. in 1954. I was called to preach in the 70's. I lived like the devil for 25 years. After Bible Collage, I realized what it is to be a mature Christian.So I committed myself to his work. When that happened everything in my life changed, and not for the worse, but for the better. And the rest is history.
