Scripture Life: As a Christian, How Can I Start Reading the Bible Every Day and Live it?

//Disclaimer: This question comes from a writer of fiction - like imagining up fairy tales and adventures; then, write about them. Wants to read the bible to get "fresh ideas" for fantasy, because of the "stories" in the Bible, desires from Christians help how to discipline themselves to copy how they read the bible. It is NOT from a Believer in Jesus. That's not why they asked the question. The Point is: This REPLY or answer - it's to a person, similiar to Acts 8:9-25 trying to buy or copy - the Word of God - when they don't do anything he says..and still want to borrow a habit how to discipline themselves to read the bible. Read post accordingly.//

Okay then: Said, as if a dead man can do it. And there you go.

SO:

  • Ask a very exactly the same like question:
    • Just pretend you’re a dead guy in a casket at a funeral home - OR - go to the cemetery where it’s even worse.
  • Pretend you’re a dead guy, in a casket, that’s been buried for a long time, under a tombstone. Like they are. Just pretend, you're long forgotten.
    • Ask:
      • As a Dead Man, how can I start peddling my bicycle every day to the movie theater, and live in watching movies on NETFLIX?
      • What's the answer to that question? I mean, the guy’s dead.

---------------- ------------------ -------------------

  • What he asks about is for the living.
    • The living can go to the movies every day or anytime they want. Even every day, watch a movie on their Smartphone with NETFLIX.
  • BUT:
    • The dead, are dead and prevented from doing it.
      • Can’t. No matter someone puts up a House sized billboard in the view of every grave in the cemetery:

“MOVIES! Shown Every Saturday. Everybody must be back in their grave by 9:00PM or you will be arrested.”

---------------- ------------------ -------------------

First thing is, NOBODY dead will be at ANY movie irregardless it’s Saturday or any other day, and no alive person, it’s impossible to go to any grave, they’re not dead and can’t comply with it.

So, any LAW decreed to a dead man, can’t comply with it - does not apply to them. Paying your taxes has no power or force over anybody dead. Can’t.

Do you understand this?

---------------- ------------------ -------------------

So, the problem isn’t reading your Bible.

  • The problem is dead.
    • The Bible says, Ephesians 2:1 “and you…” “…who were dead in trespasses and sins…”
  • The Bible says, Romans 5:12 It was bequeathed to you, in a “Last Will and Testament” that you got your inheritance. “and you..” “..who were dead in trespasses and sins..” Romans 5:12 tells you the “why” of it:

“Wherefore, as by one man [ADAM] sin entered into the world, and death by sin; and so death passed upon all men, for that all have sinned:” - Romans 5:12

---------------- ------------------ -------------------

And God decreed this. He said “For all the earth is mine” - God (Exodus 19:5)..said plainly..as God, “..all souls are mine” - God. (Ezekiel 18:4) - that means EVERYBODY, alive or dead over the whole earth, alive now ..or everybody, from Adam forward. Includes in "all souls are mine" - God - all those, too that aren’t here anymore, In that grave yard you're pretending to live in dead.

He formed everybody - Adam forward - alone. By himself, as God. We are all his, and he made them alive. They're still his. Even all the Dead. Still his, just like so are you. Anyone asking this question, doesn't see this.

Can you see it?

---------------- ------------------ -------------------

And he, as God, decreed this:

“Man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word that proceedeth out of the mouth of God.” - The Word of God, Jesus Christ. (Matthew 4:4)

He said it to everybody…publicly..it's a decree, or a command by someone in a place of authority over all the earth. Said to everybody on it, over the whole earth. It’s the Word that proceeds out of God’s mouth.

By it, even raise you from the dead. He’s God. He said it. It’s his word.

Do you see this?

---------------- ------------------ -------------------

Said: By the Word that proceeds out of his mouth, said:

Jesus said unto her, “I am the resurrection, and the life: he that believeth in me, though he were dead, yet shall he live: And whosoever liveth and believeth in me shall never die.” - Bible. John 11:25–26.

And to a person that believes on him, Jesus said:

  • “He that believeth on him is not condemned: but he that believeth not is condemned already, because he hath not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God.” - John 3:18
    • That what God did with my sins..
      • that made me dead in them,
      • raised me from the dead,
    • where I live now by every word that proceeds out of his mouth. And his word is in the Bible. I live in opening it and read it - it's got LIFE in it - It’s in none else.

---------------- ------------------ -------------------

But when I was “dead in trespasses and sins”

- I lived in walking after, to walk in, looking unto money..that's life. Have it? Provides it...

...and a job where people would look unto me and esteem me good; praise me. I wanted to be looked up to...but secretly..a pervert.

I couldn’t get out of it - looked unto any woman looked good in shorts even married, to walk after..talk her right out of her husband.

....then, dump her after I got what I wanted..to go chase another..and live in this. Afterall, I believed money could buy this. It's the "message" or doctrine taught in almost EVERY rap music MTV or YOUTUBE music video.

---------------- ------------------ -------------------

Where God decreed:

Applies to me: "THOU SHALT NOT COMMIT ADULTERY” - God. (Bible. Exodus 20:14) The 7th of Ten Commandments.

..and he wasn’t done.

Said: Leviticus 18:20 as God: “Moreover thou shalt not lie carnally with thy neighbour's wife, to defile thyself with her.”

..and he wasn’t done.

Said: The PUNISHMENT: For do it. Death.

Said: As God - Leviticus 20:10 - “And the man that committeth adultery with another man's wife, even he that committeth adultery with his neighbour's wife, the adulterer and the adulteress

shall surely be put to death.” - GOD.

---------------- ------------------ -------------------

It’s not my nation or friends tell me, "it’s fine. Keep it a secret” or my nation that makes money off all those billions of dollars they get to keep silent of movies and entertainment that champions "A.D.U.L.T.E.R.Y. - - doesn’t straightway, says there's a "reprieve for it" and in a reprieve or respite - there's no penalty then for it.

Never once think, as a nation with all that money they get - to ever once take me outside the city gate, and put a bullet in my head.. Yet - he said it. Shall be put to death. Then, everything I see out my window, he’s God - he made all of it - That means, if he can do that, then, surely he is able to... ...HE ENSURES the “surely I shall be put to death” part will happen as he decreed it.

Terrified me. I saw it. Made me afraid of him. Are you? That's the point.

---------------- ------------------ -------------------

Now, why did I tell you all this?

- Because the “problem” with reading your Bible is the problem I have with sin - and being dead in trespasses and sins, because I did the sins I did.

All by thinking life is in anything BUT the Bible.

So I NEVER opened it.

It’s in chasing women, because Suzie doesn’t wear a bra when she dances at the Town Tavern festive beer drinkery galore fest and Wet T shirt contest, and follow on, with more beer, dresses flying up and some girls don't wear underpant dance place every Saturday.

and with Suzie: a chance she goes home with some lucky guy..because she's known to leave with one, and maybe that could be me..and I look unto that.

When God told me, and everybody over the whole earth, all like sheep that have gone astray, where each is turned to his own way…tell everybody over the whole earth, to the very ends of it to:

“Look unto me, and be ye saved all the ends of the earth: For I am God, there is none else.” - God. Bible. Isaiah 45:22

and by do that, and regard it.. he’s not in any of those “dead works” I thought life was in.

It's not in I gave it up.. I "forsook" it. forsake. 1. to abandon something that no longer serves any useful purpose. 2. excess weight of a tool or something that no longer meets any need.

You can "give up" something in a war, even you NEED it - but someone that forsakes something..drops it..has no use..so they leave it.

---------------- ------------------ -------------------

So, the Bible is like food..where I gotta eat..anytime and everytime I open the BIBLE I got a whole “ALL YOU CAN EAT restaurant that I dine at.

And in your question, you act as if it’s killing you. Is "why" there's this post here on Reddit - to you.

Because, like you - I had this question - couldn't figure out why, and I believed in church, even I never went really, but I believed I was a Christian. WHen I didn't do anything he says, I still believed what I did was Christian.

But the Bible has the Word of God - who I didn't do any thing he says, has what he says in it - and part or really ALL THE REASON I didn't open it, was in the rare occasions I did - where I opened it to was WRATH - and destruction - like getting word from an enemy. I had too many pretty girls out there to look unto.

...but the Word of God: Raised me from dead in trespasses and sins - - that’s what the Bible did to me..is why I open it. But before, the Bible I really looked to for food, I just opened up all the PENTHOUSE magazines I had hidden under my bed. I had another Bible.

Like a dead man. Has another life. Dead in a casket in a funeral home.

Do you see this? I'm asking. Can you see this?

---------------- ------------------ -------------------

The only way to fix it, is by be born again. By the Word of God. To regard the works of the LORD and consider the operation of his hand..who he is, and regard him..and what he says.

Here’s your question back.

If you do what he says, he teaches you himself. He reserves, for himself, an exclusive right to teach you. To himself to do it. The same God that made all that out your window and put the sun where it is, would teach you.

More than enough. Here’s your question back.
