Suggestions for Bible Study

I want to share a few suggestions I gleaned from R.A. Torrey about studying the Bible.
  • Study the Bible daily - it should become a daily part of your lifestyle
  • Select the best time of your day to give to Bible study - if you are a morning person, then time in the mornings should be given
  • Look for Christ in each passage you study - the Bible is about the plan of God and Christ is the completion of that plan. He is the whole reason we study
  • Memorize a verse or two from each section you study - give the Holy Spirit something to work with as you study so He can give you guidance from what you have studied (it makes the Bible come to life)
  • Be prepared to study at any time (that means you have to carry it with you) - between classes, waiting for dinner, waiting for someone...
I hope these help invigorate your Bible study time.
