One of the greatest virtues of the Christian Gospel is clarity. That is, Scripture is clear on who God is, what He has done, and promises to do in the future; how He sees us, and what He expects us to do for His glory and also for our salvation. This kind of clarity is most helpful to our Christian souls, lest we find ourselves deep in confusion and idolatry. Since Believers are students of the Word, you would expect them to possess the same skill of clarity.

What worries me is that bloggers are believed to be those g...

Bored and weary, I found myself scrolling aimlessly through Twitter, until lo and behold! My eye caught something called 8 Profitable Ways to read the Bible . After being blessed by such an edifying post, I figured some good soul had extracted it from a book called Practical Religion by J. C Ryle . Ryle was, without any doubt, one of the best ministers to ever grace the Christian world.  He was a Bishop somewhere in England, just about a few decades before our parents were born. Because I care about you, my fellow Christian brethren, I couldn’t let you miss this beautiful teaching, hence I had no choice but to do a copy and paste of that J. C Ryle content as it is. Check it out below and learn how to read the Bible…  1 . Begin reading your Bible today . The way to do a thing is to do it; and the way to read the Bible is actually to read it! It is not merely meaning, or wishing, or resolving, or intending, or thinking about it, which will advance you one step. You must positive...
