Bible Discussion Thread

I do find it strange that so many people on this site don't seem to make the connections between the Old and New Testaments . The Old is a foreshadow of the New I believe . A good understanding of the Old definately enhances our understanding and appreciation of the New . Jesus understood and believed the Old and he is represented in all the Old Testament books . Maybe I'm being harsh and I'm underestimating the Christians on here , if so , I apologise profusely . May God open all of our eyes and ears and hearts and minds so that no matter how much we think we know we can always know more about our God and our Saviour and draw closer to them . I include myself of course , I am always open to learn more and I know that there will always b more for me to learn .

Grae,

Yes, God is at work in each of us drawing us to Himself through His Word. We are all studying the Scriptures in the way that we believe is fit for us at this time in our lives. so, for me, I don't think I need to expect others to be studying as I am or be in the same book of study in the Bible as I am, nor to have the same focus in my spiritual growth as I do now.

On this site, most often someone brings up a topic or question and we respond. Sometimes we share what we are presently studying or insights we have discovered. So, Grae, I hope you stick with us for a while and over time you will get to know some of us much better. I am glad you are here. Have a good night.
