This seems like a good idea. I hope it helps!

I think part of the problem is that many young people simply don’t read at all, not just that they don’t read the Bible. I’ve been reading the Bible to my children for many years, and we all love it. We have wonderful conversations about how stories in the Bible illustrate economic principles, or how people relate to one another, or the use of language for different effects.

“The crisis facing the church is not that Christians disagree with what they have studied in the Bible and what is taught from the pulpit. It is rather that many have heard too few biblical truths to begin with. As churches turn to “spiritainment” to draw the masses, what often falls through the cracks is the transfer of basic doctrinal truths.”

Even on FR, the BIBLE is not emphasized.

INSTEAD you will here what other SINNERS TELL YOU TO BELIEVE. It’s mindbogglingly that the BIBLE is not good enough and people WILLINGLY put their faith/trust in what other SINNERS tell them to believe rather than READING and STUDYING the BIBLE on their own.

Perfection takes a back seat to SINNERS with an agenda - keeping people STUPID about what GOD says.

Logos costs money and only runs under Windows.

Call me neolithic, but I like bound books better.

This is what I have been harping about on FR for awhile now. How can someone grow up going to church and not know anything about the bible?

There must be another answer..... I believe (after studying scripture) you can have head knowledge of scripture but until God takes your blinders off and you actually “get it” and you have a heart change it just doesn’t make a bit of difference. Scripture confirms this in verse 1 Corintians 2:14. (there are others as well).

In the book of James, that is why God tells us to be not only hearers of the word but doers. To look intently into the law (the written word of God) so we can be blessed. One can not become a doer unless one truly knows “what” to do for the Lord as an act of worship not duty.

There are always the comments that people don’t know anything about the bible because the churches are more into entertaining nowadays. I couldn’t disagree more! There are churches who “entertain”, but that is not the true issue. The issue is whether or not they teach what the bible says. If they give relevance to the scripture for the “hearers” and teach what God says, then it doesn’t matter the surroundings. Paul used relevance in his day. The preachers have a great responsibility to God to be accurate in his teachings and there is only way to weigh the truth and that is with reading the scripture yourselves and finding out if what they say can be held up in scripture.

Take a look at the variety of ways we “receive” our information today and I gaurantee you it is different from when our parents grew up. Do you want to put God in the “traditional” box. Don’t do that! God works in all types of churches THAT TEACH THE BIBLE. That is the key.

God will reach many using all different methods. But remember we are in a fallen world, so along with that, satan has utilized all these ways to glorify himself as well. It has never been easier for him to infiltrate the airwaves with false teachers (Joel Osteen, Benny Hinn, etc), he has used the information highway to spout falsehoods about Christ. He will use all these methods to preach his gospel, he seeks to destroy us, that is his mission. He wants us to think it is because the churches have lost tradition..but that simply is not the case! I just don’t buy it! We just see more false teachers in the media than we do the ones who are truly teaching about Jesus. It doesn’t mean God isn’t working.

I love to ask the question, how many know about the enemy of God? Who? What? When? Why? The bible teaches this as well, but you don’t hear much about that from the false teachers. They want you think that life is all honky dory if you just believe hard enough. Hogwash!

Hos 4:6 My people are destroyed for lack of knowledge: because thou hast rejected knowledge, I will also reject thee, that thou shalt be no priest to me: seeing thou hast forgotten the law of thy God, I will also forget thy children.
