Why do you think it is important for us to read the holy bible everyday?

Answer 1

Reading The Bible every day is important for all Christians, both new and old. Since they believe the Bible is the Word of God, it is Living (2 Timothy 3:16). When Christians read the Bible, God speaks to them, sometimes a certain phrase will stick out and grab your attention, other times you'll just read and read ... soaking up the information. It helps us answer questions like, "Why are we here?" or "What is sin?".

Answer:

Jesus tells those who "believe on Him" to READ THE BIBLE [John 8]:

"Then said Jesus to THOSE JEWS WHICH BELIEVED ON HIM, If ye CONTINUE IN MY WORD [the Bible], then are ye My disciples indeed; and YE SHALL KNOW THE TRUTH, and THE TRUTH SHALL MAKE YOU FREE." (verses 31-32)

Of course, these particular "believers" tried to kill Him before their encounter was done... but Jesus' words are written down for anyone to read and heed -- if the Spirit of God might move them to do so.

Those "believers" were reared in the Word, and thought they knew it... but it wasn't the Spirit of God that moved in them:

"... now ye seek to kill Me, a man that hath told you the Truth... ye do the deeds of your father... Ye are of your father the Devil, and the lusts of your father ye will do..." (verses 40-44).

It might not be possible to read the Bible every day... but, Jesus says to "continue" in it. This continuation is "living in it"... being obedient to it. Don't forsake it... don't give up on it. And pass it on to others.

The Bible is the "spiritual nourishment" from God to man. Divine Bread that leads to Godly Character growth and development. It's supposed to be "devoured" by the heart and mind... chew on it awile... digest what it's saying -- believe what it's saying.

It's God's "owner's manual." It tells us what we need to know about ourselves [God's manufactured creation]. It reveals how and why He made us. It tells us how to maintain the product, both spiritually and physically for optimum performance, joy, happiness and longevity.

Believers know and understand from the Bible about the future... Eternity... and the HOPE ahead of which this world is ignorant, and cannot provide.

Answer:

It's not so much how often you read the Bible, as it is whether or not He is opening your mind to its Truth [that is, "believe"]; the Truth that remains hidden from the hearts and minds of most people.

"You must speak My Words to them, whether they listen or fail to listen, for they are rebellious. But you, son of man, listen to what I say to you. Do not rebel like that rebellious house; open your mouth and eat what I give you." (Ezek.2:7-8 NIV)

Reading the Bible often isn't the key... but "one's attitude" [with humble faith and trust] with which he reads it. Whether or not one is willing to believe and heed what it says.

"...This is the one I esteem: he who is humble and contrite in spirit, and trembles at My Word." (Isa.66:2 NIV)

"But the House of Israel is not willing to listen to you because they are not willing to listen to Me, for the whole House of Israel is hardened and obstinate." (Ezek.3:7 NIV)

It's not how "often" you read the Bible... but "how" you read it.
