How to Read the Bible for All Its Worth and others

Since I recently purchased approximately 30 Books from Alibris, I am unable to make a proper review until I read them.......
As I read each of them, I will make a review of each, but in all honesty, the books must be read through before a proper honest review can be made. I look forward to reviewing all of the books in due time, and I will.
Sincerely, Doug Wareham

Should be a must for every Christian
This book should be required reading for all Christians -- well, for anyone who reads the Bible, so they can understand what they're reading. The most important section is that on CONTEXT -- because too many are "lifting" verses out of context and interpreting them to their own satisfaction. I Corinthians 2:9 is the best example --- it should NEVER be read without the next verse, which starts with "BUT"!!!! Check that out, and you'll see how much this book is needed.

How to Read the Bible for all its worth
Great book to assist the Bible student in understanding the Bible especially in the purpose of the writing and then applying it to today.
