The Bible isn't a rule book. It tells the story of God making humans his partners, humans ruining it, and God restoring the world through Jesus. #shorts #BibleProject #biblevideo #bible
@@ncksmth my point is that God was not surprised by the fall and that God’s plan to restore humanity unto Himself was not God’s plan B. No, God did not cause the fall. The fall was the result of sin and God is Holy- He can not sin.
for me, pray-reading over 3 to 4 verses in the morning really feeds me spiritually. And at night I read at a set time before bed, and I have a set schedule that I follow each day. Usually 1 chapter before bed
Me too! I hope to grow spiritually and deny this world and flesh so I will try this routine and pray consistently so God can grow in me and me in Him! Thank you for sharing this!
@@davidschmidt270 I do think so. When I was a new Christian the Bible just didn’t make sense. The New Testament kind of did, but I never could piece together the “why”. But now, in large part because of Bible project, I can understand the major themes of scripture, when the psalmists write about God’s dwelling place on his holy mountain and how the rivers of life from the temple will water the wastelands and turn them into gardens…it all makes sense what the author of the poem is trying to say. Idk man it really will change how you read and understand the Bible if you listen to their podcasts and watch their videos.
Everything that is said in this video also describes the Qur'an we just don't believe Jesus was god just sent by Allah (SWT) We are a true monotheistic religion peace be on all righteous servants of God
@@brayanxd4547 #1 Jesus never proclaimed “I am god” #2 I have shown where Jesus admitted he wasn’t god (which you did not refute) #3 we can assume that Jon 20:28 was made up as they would have to be talking to a ghost. People say “my god” in lots of situations.
@@Darkpill-2 1) I assume you believe Jesus isn't God because He never said so. But, if He is not God, why would He act like it? He didn't proclaim he was God because his purpose before dying was to introduce the message of salvation to everyone, but if He told them He was God, people would congregate around him and make harder for him to enter the cities and spread the news. 2) I don't get when you said you showed where Jesus said He wasn't God, but still this doesn't mean He wasn't. 3) Let me give some context: in the verse 25 of the same chapter, they say "We have seen the Lord! (Jesus)”, then Thomas says he would never believe it "Unless I see the nail marks in his hands and put my finger where the nails were, and put my hand into his side". Then Jesus appears to him, he sees his nail marks and touches his side and then affirms "My Lord and GOD!" So, the "Lord" Thomas was talking about is the same "Lord" the disciples told him (JESUS), and then he even calls Him God, and Jesus doesn't even contradict Thomas.
I love your people. I am legally blind and you are such a blessing and a gift. I regularly have people comment on my Bible knowledge, I give you and my church the credit.
2 Timothy 3:16-17 16All scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness: 17That the man of God may be perfect, throughly furnished unto all good works. So the more correct phrasing of that opening statement is "the Bible is not just a rulebook"
In fact the word of God is a book of instructions and laws that we must follow. Yahs kingdom is not a democracy, Its a kingdom with rules and Yah is the authority that we worship.
To start off, I got a study Bible it is helping a lot. I also got a story book Bible, which is meant for kids, it helps me understand the main parts of the stories as a beginner.
Yes!! A children's daily Bible is great to help learn the main points of the story! I learned this from reading with my child every night. It's a really great idea for anyone who feels like they are struggling.
What a blessing to have these wonderful people that care so much ❤ God bless each and every one of you and your family including pets if you have any 🙏
YOU NEED/MUST READ/MEDITATE/PRAY the Bible DAILY to survive and thrive spiritually/mentally/emotionally. Absolute MUST. Group studies are fundamental but 1on1 is crucial.
I love Bible Project’s App, their videos, Bible series, etc. I’ve learned so much and I really appreciate how they explain difficult passages, words, etc and make it easier to understand. Thanks Bible Project.
Man I thank God that there's good out of everything and everything serves a purpose to him. Social media which is seen as a villain has brought the christian society closer and helps others strengthen their faith and be strong in Christ
Some of it is, in fact, a rulebook. Everything else you said is more or less true. It's part of the deposit of faith. That includes rules. God bless y'all for the hard work!
Exactly, I was like what did he just say??? "It's not a rule book". I agree 💯 on your comment it absolutely is a rule book of Gods do's and don't's. His commandments and ordinances! All stories in the holy Bible is for our learning, inspirations, and encouragements about having a personal relationship with our creator. Not only that but I love how it's shows his character. I hate these new age bible programs which cut apart what truth really is and what it all means to God the father. One thing I have learned and still learning from the Holy Bible is how not to piss him off, his cursing and blessings and to stay on his side because of his son paying for my sins thank you Jesusssssss! I tell people when I'm witnessing you don't want to die and face God the father with out the covering of the blood of the lamb. The Israelites are a perfect example for my learning.
@@FrJohnBrownSJ Knowing Christ brings us closer to him because our works can’t. Obeying Christ shows our closeness as a result of what he did for us. We love because he first loved us. Too many people reverse this and shipwreck their faith; that’s partly why we should avoid calling the Bible a rulebook.
GOD THANK YOU FOR BLESSING ME WITH BIBLE READING SKILL MAY YOU BLESS ALL THOSE WHO ALSO PRAY FOR YOU TO GIVE THEM THE HOLY GHOST TO READ IS HOW WE KNOW YOU GOD PLEASE BLESS THOSE OF US WHO ASK FOR READING SKILLS IN YOUR HOLY WORD😇🙏
TH-cam algorithms are reading my mind again. Sent me here. I've studied narrative theology before and really need a reassurance of its truth today. God bless you all
amazing! Love learning more about the Bible, about Gods redemptive story. The Bible Project is very helpful. Love the book-overview videos to help me understand the bigger picture.
@jamoretz9149 honestly I can't remember how or why I made a comment, but most exalted people think they will run the bible study and ignore the people in it as well as the true teacher, God. 1stJohn chapter2:25-27
@@steventaylor7716 Agreed, I have been to those bible studies myself. But I ask you to try out one of their classes. Tim never teaches down to anyone in the room and takes their questions and statements with honest care. I am on my second one and learn a lot. They are interesting and broken up into 15-20 min. units so you can take your time going though a class. They have handouts to download like the one given to the students. And the best part is that it is Free, hope you try one out and thanks for the responds.
By reading it. So many would rather be told whats in it and never bother to go read it themselves. If you haven’t read it, get up, grab the KJV and read it, don’t skim read because thats not reading, you’ll miss alot by doing that. I’ve seen many people who slimmed it and missed the points of the parables. Make sure you belong to God as well. Many are lukewarm. I’ve seen many say “well my mom is Christian so I’m saved” or “well I go to church and you don’t so you are going to hell.” 🙄 Many failed to remember a church is a gathering of two or more to talk about the Lord. Many temples claim to be churches, but only sing and never bother to preach or try to teach about Jesus, sins, or repentance. Time is short and we leave soon.
Yes.. sticking with the subject the topic and the article of what you are reading, this is why so many have trouble understanding the word of God, cuz they takes it out of contents, they seem to have problems sticking with the article the subject and the topic of what they are reading about🕊️
Just to clarify, God did not decide to start restoring us after the fall. It was his plan from the very beginning.
I was thinking the same thought when he said that! ❤
Thought the same thing. I love this channel and all they produce but this is a subtle thing that might make people think God is fickle-minded.
I don’t know if I fully agree with y’all? Do y’all think God made the fall happen?
@@ncksmth my point is that God was not surprised by the fall and that God’s plan to restore humanity unto Himself was not God’s plan B.
No, God did not cause the fall. The fall was the result of sin and God is Holy- He can not sin.
Yeah this is still not a sufficient explanation, nor do I think it’s our job as Christians to offer one
Ecclesiastes 12:13 “Let us hear the conclusion of the whole matter: Fear God, and keep his commandments: for this is the whole duty of man.”
Amen
Truth. Antinomian theology is not what the messiah taught.
Amen!!
@@jeffreyalvarez3035What does Paul teach?
@nikkinik4188 The exact thing that Jesus taught. People only think he teaches against the law because they don't understand his writings.
The bible Project and old Tim Mackie's lectures opened my eyes to the beauty of the Love of God.
