PLB-15 steps to effective and exciting Bible study I


It's a series, so just relax and chill.
It is common knowledge that as a Christian you have to, need to and must study the Scriptures for a successful Christian life. There are many successes in the world today but the Christian's definition of success is quite different. It has to do with living all of life and doing all things as the Scriptures teach.
From relating with people I realise that a lotta Christians desire to get more of the Scriptures but are burdened with many excuses as to how (where, when) to go about it.
These series are designed to help solve these challenges. Have fun reading☺.

1. Realise that in order to love God more and live a truly fulfilled and pleasing to God you will need some good level of personal knowledge from the Scriptures (settle that first in your heart).

2. Everyone who has had a considerable beautiful experience with the Scriptures can testify to these:
-you may not agree with everything at first,
-you may not understand everything in one fell swoop initially, you may even easily get bored😥 of it at inception. However, a strong desire to progress in the knowledge of God along with a decent level of patience should take care of this.

3. Get your Bible study gear ready. It's simply the most important project you will be embarking upon in your life so it's more than worth getting ready for. Your gear should include these above all else;
-5 translations of the Bible (my suggestions are: KJV/NKJV, Amplified, Message, NIV, NLT),
-a dictionary/thesaurus,
-Greek and Hebrew manuscripts,
-Bible commentaries,
-Google😉. You probably already have most of these things on your smart phone/device so just download the ones you don't have. How blessed we are in our age!

Apostle Peter- Running 1

A blend of Bible stories, revelations and fiction (literature license) about Peter's life and somewhat complex choices and decisions. Sit back, relax, cappuccino and enjoy! And Peter was running again, away from the persecution that had once again broken out against the Church. Jesus had been long gone. He missed Him. He still had nostalgia and goose bumps whenever he remembered just how divine Jesus was. He had seen Jesus do a lot of amazing miracles but none quite like the last one- he and his other folks, some 50 of them watched as Jesus levitated into the heavens until no physical eyes could see him again. He said He was going to heaven and of course that was true- Peter knew now by deep conviction that he'd walked with God Himself. And for some reason he thought himself a friend of God. He knew he was going to see Jesus again sometime soon. There was no debate in his heart about this. He loved Jesus or perhaps God- they were one and the same persons to him now. He ...

PLB Editorial- Cheers 🍻 to life!

Jesus, while speaking to listeners in John 6 talked of them eating his flesh and drinking his blood and how this would forever quench their hunger and thirst. Most of the people who heard this couldn't receive it, it seemed as if Jesus was trying to initiate them into some cult where they'd all be required to be cannibals. Yet Jesus, unapologetic as He always was didn't even try to break it down to their understanding, instead He said "those who hear and learn from my Father come to me". On that day some of His disciples left Him, citing how His teaching and doctrine was too controversial and hard to take. Howbeit none from the popular 12 left. Fast forward to 1Corinthians11:24 and Paul is reiterating the events of the Jesus' last supper with His disciples as He received it from God. Jesus used those words again "this is my body" and "this is the cup of the new testament in my blood" and required of us to break and eat and also to drink. ...
