Why Read The Bible?

Maybe you look at the Bible as just an old book that only adults read. But did you know that the Bible is for you, too? It is and here’s why. God gave us the Bible as our instruction manual for life. Think about your lego sets. In order to build the structure correctly, you have to follow all the steps in the instructions, right? Otherwise you might end up with something different than the picture on the box. Well, that’s how it works with us, too. God created us so he knows how we should be put together and how we should work. So, the Bible just tells us what to do. The most important thing the Bible teaches us is how we can be saved. Remember, we’re all broken from sin and Jesus came to die for our sins to heal us! The Bible also tells us how we are supposed to act. God created us to be obedient, kind, forgiving and to always tell the truth. And, it warns us about danger and the things we shouldn’t do, like lie or steal. The Bible is our instruction manual for life so let’s read it and obey it!
