The Inspired Scriptures
Great Bible Study
We are admonished to study the Scriptures so we can be approved before God and not be ashamed before others (II Timothy 2:15). And we are also informed that much studying is weariness of the flesh (Ecclesiastes 12:12). Therefore, we find any help greatly appreciated.
That’s our intention here.
We list three main topics about the Scriptures with sub-topics and references to guide us in our study. Scripture references are also given to aid in our study. We quote the Scripture reference for the first two topics under Their Specific Purpose but on all the others topics we only give the Scripture reference without the quote. This helps us to go directly to the Bible to find our answer.
Pick the topic you are interested in and then read the Scripture reference to learn more about it.
