What important information is contained in the Bible? (1)
Who is the Bible's author? (2)
Why should you study the Bible? (3)
1. The Bible is a precious gift from God. It is like a letter from a loving father to his children. It tells us the truth about God—who he is and what he stands for. It explains how to cope with problems and how to find true happiness. The Bible alone tells us what we must do to please God.—Psalm 1:1-3; Isaiah 48:17, 18.
2. The Bible was written by some 40 different men over a period of 1,600 years, beginning in 1513 B.C.E. It is made up of 66 little books. Those who wrote the Bible were inspired by God. They wrote his thoughts, not their own. So God in heaven, not any human on earth, is the Author of the Bible.—2 Timothy 3:16, 17; 2 Peter 1:20, 21.
3. God made sure that the Bible was accurately copied and preserved. More Bibles have been printed than any other book. Not everyone will be happy to see you studying the Bible, but do not let that stop you. Your eternal future depends on your getting to know God and doing his will despite any opposition.—Matthew 5:10-12; John 17:3.

I came at random to your blog and liked it. Keep the good work going! God bless
I am curious about what made you decide to post information from the Watchtower literature? I find it interesting that you posted it and had no commentary or seeming say so on it...
Feel free to respond at http://the jscene.blogspot.com
do you mean what are my rights to post topics of the watchtower library?
First, I thank you for your curiousity, thats commendable. Not many would do especially topics relating to God.
To answer your concern, if i understand you perfectly ha?
is that I am an active member of Watchtower Tract Society, meaning I am a baptized Jehovah's Witness.
The purpose of Watchtower Society is for members to preach the good things about God, and his Kingdom and his son Jesus Christ.I have some friends who may interested to read good topics from the Libarary, so here it is, LOL
As long as we dont make business out of the topics,we do not twist the truth of the Bible,and we post it based from the Library itself, this is allowable by the society.
Thanks for visiting.
Well not "right" per se...I see you added the copyrights - your Ok ;^)
When I saw you had put your astrological sign in your profile I figured you were not a JW, but perhaps you could clear that up for me. Either way it's still nice to see you looking into the Scriptures and sharing what you personally find of interest with others!
the astrological signs in profiles are done by blog admin direct when we put our birthday.
I cant escape, LOL as blogging is free.I dont even know what astrological sign I am until they put it,lol
Thanks for the visits
I modify my profile. No more astrological signs, bronxbarbie.
Thanks to you, otherwise i will be in trouble...
