Good morning family and friends, let us continue to see some explanations for the questions we raised here yesterday. Here they are:

7. How should you correctly use the Bible?

I should regularly read and hear it thoughtfully, asking the Holy
Spirit to instruct me so that I can believe it and live according to its
teaching.
John 16:13a—But when he, the Spirit of truth, comes, he will guide
you into all truth.
Luke 11:28—Blessed...are those who hear the word of God and
obey it.

8. Why should you pray for help in understanding the Bible?

I should pray for help in understanding the Bible because my mind
is darkened by sin, and I cannot understand it by myself.
1 Corinthians 2:14—The man without the Spirit does not accept the
things that come from the Spirit of God, for they are foolishness to
him, and he cannot understand them, because they are spiritually
discerned.

9. What is the main truth of the Bible?

The main truth of the Bible is that Jesus is the only way of
salvation.
John 14:6—Jesus answered, “I am the way and the truth and the
life. No one comes to the Father except through me.”
Luke 24:45-49—Then he opened their minds so they could
understand the Scriptures. He told them, “This is what is written:
The Christ will suffer and rise from the dead on the third day, and
repentance and forgiveness of sins will be preached in his name
to all nations, beginning at Jerusalem You are witnesses of these
things. I am going to send you what my Father has promised; but
stay in the city until you have been clothed with power from on
high.”

10. What are the two main teachings of the Bible?

The two main teachings of the Bible are the Law and the Gospel.

11. What is the Law?

The Law is that teaching of the Word of God which tells me how I
am to be and what I am to do and not to do.
Leviticus 19:2b—“...Be holy because I, the Lord your God, am
holy.”

12. What is the Gospel?

The Gospel is the good news in which God tells me what He has
done for me through Jesus Christ, especially in dying for my sin
and rising in victory over death and Satan.
1 Corinthians 15:1-5—Now, brothers, I want to remind you of the
gospel I preached to you, which you received and on which you
have taken your stand. By this gospel you are saved, if you hold
firmly to the word I preached to you. Otherwise, you have believed
in vain.
For what I received I passed on to you as of first importance:
that Christ died for our sins according to the Scriptures, that he
was buried, that he was raised on the third day according to the
Scriptures, and that he appeared to Peter, and then to the Twelve.
