Benefits of Reading, Studying, Meditating and Making Application Of God's Word In Our Life

1. READING the Bible helps you to understand God's thinking. His likes and dislikes. Reading the Bible helps us to see and understand His will and purpose for obedient mankind and the earth. Reading the Bible will give us answers to such questions as: Why is there so much suffering? Why do we grow, get sick and die? What is the condition of the dead and is there a hope of ever seeing our dead loved ones again? How does one draw close to God? What is God's Kingdom? Reading the Bible especially the Gospels will help us to see how Jesus ransom sacrifice plays a role in ending all forms of suffering very soon in mankind's coming history. And there are so many more benefits in READING the Bible.

2. When you STUDY the Bible with those approved by God, who dispense accurate Bible based information to others, then you will begin making the truth of God's Word your own. You will be happier and more content. You will began to realize that the truths found in the Bible are life saving, life changing, can give you a hope, help you to see a bright happy future and put you in line for everlasting life on a beautiful paradise earth, to the benefit of those who apply it in their life.

3. MEDITATING or thinking on God's Word the Bible sounds down, welds, and brands God's Word into our mind and heart. Doing so, MEDITATING on God's Word, will encourage us to make application of God's word in our personal life and then dedicate our life to God as well as become a footstep follower of Jesus Christ.

The Old Testament was translated into Greek and Aramaic, and probably other languages, before the time of Christ. After then the Bible was translated into Latin, Arabic, Egyptian, Ethiopian, Indian languages, Germanic, Gaelic, and on and on. English was a latecomer to the party. The first major translation into English was in the 14th century by John Wycliffe.

And then the writings are merely hearsay authored by a few men - not Jesus himself.

It's hard for me to comprehend The Bible is the word of God when there have been so many alterations.

No hating here - just an opinion.
@cuppatea Thank you for your reply. Many have echoed your response and I did too before I did more extensive research. Think about this: When a person goes to the post office to send/mail a SPECIAL package, they will usually purchase insurance on that item In case it is damaged or lost. They may ask that a tracking number be given to the recipient of their package so that they will know when to expect their special package/letter. They may even pay extra to send their package via Express over night. In other words this person has gone out of their way to make sure the recipient receives their special package. Sooooo, how much more so the Heavenly Father Jehovah, who created all things is able to preserve His Word the Bible without MAJOR changes from His purposed theme of the Bible.

With all due respect, he did a shit poor job.
Just look at how many people his word fails to reach, how many people who receive it disagree about what it says.
One would think an omnipotent being would leave a record that was unequivocal rather than one of the most disagreed upon collection of writings known to man even by people who believe it's true.
