This is an excerpt from an article I am writing.
"On the one hand, an accurate OVERVIEW of the Bible is important for a proper understanding of SPECIFIC VERSES.
On the other hand, a proper understanding of SPECIFIC VERSES is important for an accurate OVERVIEW of the Bible.
(Quoting myself)
"On the one hand, an accurate OVERVIEW of the Bible is important for a proper understanding of SPECIFIC VERSES.
On the other hand, a proper understanding of SPECIFIC VERSES is important for an accurate OVERVIEW of the Bible.
Biblical understanding is a personal awareness and familiarity with God and His word rather than simply an intellectual grasp of Biblical information or parroting another person's point of view.
God's Holy Spirit inspired (inbreathed) the Bible writers to record Divine revelation (thoughts and words), and it takes the Holy Spirit's enabling (enlightenment) to impart understanding and wisdom to us personally."

And never forget, the Bible (GOD'S WORD) is THE WORD OF GOD.
1 Thessalonians 2:13
13 For this cause also thank we God without ceasing, because, when ye received the word of God which ye heard of us, ye received it not as the word of men, but as it is in truth, the word of God, which effectually worketh also in you that believe.
1 Thessalonians 2:13
13 For this cause also thank we God without ceasing, because, when ye received the word of God which ye heard of us, ye received it not as the word of men, but as it is in truth, the word of God, which effectually worketh also in you that believe.
Don't settle for second-hand views. Search the Scriptures, rightly understand what God said in His revelation. God's word gives us strength, power, light, life, knowledge, understanding, wisdom, comfort, courage, truth, victory, righteousness and much more. Treat it as the treasure it is.
