Epic (Part 4): The Storyline Of The BibleНамуна

The people gather to hear God’s Word read aloud. Books would have been rare, so this was the only way most people could hear the Bible firsthand. What was being read was also explained to the people. They came to realize that there was a holiday coming up called the Feast of Shelters, so it was perfect timing for them to prepare to celebrate.

This story gives a perfect example of how we should be using the Bible. First, there is reading and understanding what it says; second, realizing we haven’t done what we should be doing; and third, change direction and starting doing what God says.
