How to Read the Bible
First, we must understand that the Holy Bible is the Word of The Most HIGH and should be utilized when we desire to obtain understanding and knowledge.
Isaiah 34:16 – Seek ye out of the book of the LORD, and read: no one of these shall fail, none shall want her mate: for My mouth it hath commanded, and his spirit it hath gathered them. No Word of The Most HIGH AHHAYAH will fail. Neither can the Holy Bible be mated or compared with any other book. It stands alone. The words of The Most HIGH are Pure and True cannot return to Him; it has to accomplish what He has spoken!!!
Psalms 12:6-7 – Vs. 6. The words of the LORD are pure words: as silver tried in a furnace of earth, purified seven times. 7. Thou shalt keep them, O LORD, thou shalt preserve them from this generation forever.
Isaiah 55:11 – So shall my word be that goeth forth out of My mouth: it shall not return unto me void, but it shall accomplish that which I please, and it shall prosper in the thing whereto I sent it.
2nd Timothy 3:16 – All scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness: We should not be cherry-picking the scriptures and utilizing part of the scriptures to formulate our own doctrines. All scripture is given by the inspiration of God!
The scriptures mean exactly what is states. There are no private interpretations!!!
2nd Peter 1:20-21 – Vs. 20. Knowing this first, that no prophecy of the scripture is of any private interpretation. 21. For the prophecy came not in old time by the will of man: but holy men of God spake as they were moved by the Holy Spirit.
The Holy Bible provides instructions on how it is to be read in order to obtain knowledge and understanding!!!
Isaiah 28:9-10 – Vs. 9. Whom shall He teach knowledge? and whom shall He make to understand doctrine? them that are weaned from the milk, and drawn from the breasts. 10. For precept must be upon precept, precept upon precept; line upon line, line upon line; here a little, and there a little:
What is the Strongs Concordance Hebrew number and meaning of precept?
Strong’s #H6673 – tsav: command, ordinance, oracle
צַו tsav, tsav; or צָו tsâv; from H6680; an injunction:—commandment, precept.
Each line or precept builds upon another line or precept at another location in scripture. By reading and linking precept upon precept we are able to then understand doctrine as well as discern between both good and evil. The single-column reference contained in some bibles is very helpful when locating precepts that relate to a certain precept in scripture. We recommend utilizing your single column reference when studying the word or obtaining a KJV bible that has one if you do not have one already.
The precepts give us understanding and the knowledge of how to discern between good and evil!!!
Psalm 119:104 – Through thy precepts I get understanding: therefore I hate every false way.
The religious leaders of today set up academic and religious institutions so that lies can be taught to the masses regarding the understanding of the Holy Scriptures. They have created their own doctrine and fear towards The Most HIGH AHHAYAH.
Isaiah 29:13 – Wherefore the Lord said, Forasmuch as this people draw near Me with their mouth, and with their lips do honour me, but have removed their heart far from Me, and their fear toward Me is taught by the precept of men:
Matthew 15:8-9 – Vs. 9. This people draweth nigh unto Me with their mouth, and honoureth Me with their lips; but their heart is far from Me.
10. But in vain they do worship me, teaching for doctrines the commandments of men. An example of this is the observance of Sunday worship and its institution as a day of rest over the Sabbath. The Sabbath is to be observed on Saturday which is the seventh day. Emperor Constantine I (the 1st) was behind this change from the 7th day Sabbath to the 1st day (from Saturday to Sunday).
“Constantine had his likeness represented on golden coins, with the eyes uplifted, in the attitude of prayer.
And our present legal institution of Sunday was established by this man’s authority. He enjoined on all the subjects of the Roman empire to observe the Lord’s Day as the day of rest.”
This decree for the general observance of Sunday appears to have been issued A.D 321 before which time both “the old and new Sabbaths” were observed by Christians. Gibbon says he called the Lord’s Day “Dies Solis,” that is, the Day of the Sun or Sun’s day. “This day,” he said, “should be regarded as a special occasion for prayer.”

The majority of Christians today are following the commandments of men though stating with their mouths that they love GOD and Christ.
Since many of us have been taught the Bible falsely there is a need to teach the Bible with accuracy as it was meant to be taught, which means we need to be taught again. Starting with His people who The Most HIGH gave His word.
Psalm 147:19-20 – He sheweth His Word unto Jacob, His Statutes and His Judgments unto Israel. 20. He hath not dealt so with any nation: and as for His judgments, they have not known them. Praise ye the LORD.
Romans 3:1-2 – Vs. 1. What advantage then hath the Jew? or what profit is there of circumcision? 2. Much every way: chiefly, because that unto them were committed the oracles of God.
Hebrews 5:12-14 – For when for the time ye ought to be teachers, ye have need that one teach you again which be the first principles of the Oracles of God; and are become such as have need of milk, and not of strong meat. We must start with the first Principles and Commandments we read in the Old Testament. We must humble ourselves and learn again the basics like babies having need of milk. You don’t give a newborn baby solid’s when they have no teeth to chew, you give them liquids.13. For every one that useth milk is unskilful in the word of righteousness: for he is a babe. 14. But strong meat belongeth to them that are of full age, even those who by reason of use have their senses exercised to discern both good and evil. Many of the teachers of the bible today falsely teach Paul’s writings to their own destruction because they do not have an understanding of the first principles contained in the old testament.
2nd Peter 15-16 – Vs. 15. And account that the longsuffering of our Lord is salvation; even as our beloved brother Paul also according to the wisdom given unto him hath written unto you; 16. As also in all his epistles (letters), speaking in them of these things; in which are some things hard to be understood, which they that are unlearned and unstable wrest, as they do also the other scriptures, unto their own destruction.
precept upon precept example:
Deuteronomy 18:18 – I will raise them up a Prophet from among their brethren, like unto thee, and will put my words in his mouth; and he shall speak unto them all that I shall command him. This is The Most HIGH’s words to Moses stating He will raise up another prophet of the Children of Israel who will speak the words of The Most HIGH to His people. This scripture was fulfilled in John 1:45.
John 1:45-47 – Vs. 45. Philip findeth Nathanael, and saith unto Him, We have found Him, of whom Moses in the Law, and the Prophets, did write, Yashai of Nazareth, the Son of Joseph. This leaves no room for another prophet to come such as Muhammad because Christ already fulfilled this prophecy as being from among Moses’ people who are the children of Israel. 47. Yashai saw Nathanael coming to Him, and saith of Him, Behold an Israelite indeed, in whom is no guile (no deceit)!
