Study <strong>the</strong> <strong>Bible</strong> in Context<br />

Study <strong>the</strong> <strong>Bible</strong> by chapters. This method of <strong>Bible</strong> study is not beyond any person of average intelligence who has fifteen<br />

minutes or more a day to put <strong>into</strong> <strong>Bible</strong> Study. It will take, however, more than one day to study a chapter if only fifteen<br />

minutes a day are set apart for <strong>the</strong> work.<br />

1. Select <strong>the</strong> chapters you wish to study. It is well to take a whole book <strong>and</strong> study <strong>the</strong> chapters in <strong>the</strong>ir order. The Acts<br />

of <strong>the</strong> Apostles (or <strong>the</strong> Gospel of John) is a good book to begin with. In time one may take up every chapter in <strong>the</strong><br />

<strong>Bible</strong>, but it would not be wise to begin with Genesis.<br />

2. Read <strong>the</strong> chapter for today's study five times. It is well to read it aloud at least once. The writer sees many things<br />

when he reads <strong>the</strong> <strong>Bible</strong> aloud that he does not see when he reads silently. Each new reading will bring out some<br />

new point.<br />

3. Divide <strong>the</strong> chapters <strong>into</strong> <strong>the</strong>ir natural divisions <strong>and</strong> find headings for <strong>the</strong>m that describe in <strong>the</strong> most striking way <strong>the</strong>ir<br />

contents. For example, suppose <strong>the</strong> chapter studied is 1John 5. You might divide in this way:<br />

vs 1-3 The Believer's Noble Parentage<br />

2 The editor does not share <strong>the</strong> Covenant Theology view of <strong>the</strong> church exhibited herein, but underst<strong>and</strong>s <strong>the</strong> church to be a new creation (Eph. 2:15), <strong>the</strong> “body of Christ” (Eph. 1:22-23) which was<br />

not formed until <strong>the</strong> giving of <strong>the</strong> Holy Spirit at Pentecost (John 7:39; Acts 1:5; 2; 11:15) <strong>and</strong> unknown in <strong>the</strong> Old Testament (Col. 1:26-27).
