Introduction to the Bible

DAY 3 OF 3

How to Study the Bible

To study the Bible and apply its truths to life requires work. Effective Bible study is a three-part process: observation, interpretation, and application. In other words, we ask ourselves these three questions: “What does it say?” “What does it mean?” and “What does it mean to me?” Along with these three parts to Bible study are a number of guidelines to help keep us on track, and twelve “rules” are provided in this lesson.
