Knowing God by Scripture

The Bible is the single most "studied" book in history. One could obtain a doctorate in theology from any branch of Christian thinking and assume that "what the Bible says" is marked out and known. Of truth, many also assume that one needs such an education in order to write a credible text on how to study and interpret the Bible. How else could one know what the Bible is about? What you have in your hands is a different approach to "Bible study" than what you will find in most theological colleges. It is a text coming out of forty years of a different kind of "study," a study from the urgency of unquenchable thirst, a determination to find this Jesus in God's word whom everyone says is far away from us. It is a study coming out of a single-minded devotion to see just exactly what God does say in His word, every time some preacher shouts, "The Bible says." It is a study coming out of tears and sorrows, out of failure and ruin - out of hours spent before a Holy and a Mighty God. There is one qualification required for anyone to approach the Bible in the way presented in this text. DO YOU THIRST? If you do, then come, come to Jesus where He IS - and drink.
