Always fun emails, but this one both fun and Fundamental too. I challenged my brother and sisters in the churches that we have attended with this; Most all have a Bible; but have they ever read it all; I mean cover to cover? It was many years before I did. I would study it in bits and pieces, but never could say that I read it cover to cover. One year, years back I was challenged to and purchased a “Through the Bible in 1 Year.” I read it everyday and completed the year, then went on for about 3 years doing the same, and then challenged a Sunday Morning Bible Study to do the same with me. I designed a Bible Study course around just doing that. We read the Bible every day. One Chapter from the O.T. and Half a Chapter from the N.T. plus a selection from Psalms and Proverbs. Start on January 1 and by December 31, Bingo! (Not the same Bingo as in Catholic Churches) You are blessed with, knowing that you have read every chapter in the Bible! I developed a complete curriculum around this format. Real everyday of the week, and when we met on Sunday we would pray over and discuss what revelations and insights we came away with. Many times the juxtaposition of the O.T. reading and the N.T. reading for the day was astounding! At the end of each daily reading you would make notes on how the Spirit led you to insightsor the weeks reading. For instance: When God asked Samuel why He could hear living livestock that Samuel’s army had defeated the enemy, and God had instructed him to kill everything. Samuels answer was that the people, soldiers complained and wanted to save them. The same day reading of the N.T. was when Pontius Pilot said that he only crucified Jesus because the people demanded it. Chilling. Men don’t change on their own.

So, many Christians have a Bible, but many have never really read the whole thing. It is very satisfying to get the “Homework” completed.
