Reasons for reading the Bible

things.

Phillipians 4:4-8

Wisdom shouts in the street,
She lifts her voice in the square;
At the head of the noisy streets she cries out;
At the entrance of the gates in the city, she utters her
sayings:
How long, O naive ones, will you love simplicity?
And scoffers delight themselves in scoffing,
And fools hate knowledge?

Proverbs 1:20-22

The Lord is not slow about His promise, as some count slowness, but is patient toward you, not wishing for any to perish but for all to come to repentance.

2 Peter 3:9

See how great a love the Father has bestowed upon us, that we should be called children of God; and such we are. For this reason the world does not know us, because it did not know Him.

1 John 3:1&2

And the witness is this, that God has given us eternal life, and this life is in his Son.

1 John 5:11

Little children, guard yourselves from idols.

1 John 5:21

These things I have written to you who believe in the name of the Son of God, in order that you may know that you have eternal life. And this is the confidence which we have before Him, that, if we ask anything according to His will, He hears us.

1 John 5:13&14

Now to Him who is able to keep you from stumbling, and to make you stand in the presence of His glory blameless with great joy, to the only God our Savior, through Jesus Christ our Lord, be glory, majesty, dominion, and authority, before all time and now and forever. Amen.

Jude 24&25

Therefore the Lord Himself will give you a sign: Behold, a virgin will be with child and bear a son, and she will call his name Immanuel.

Isaiah 7:14

For unto us a child is born,
to us a son is given,
and the government will be on his shoulders.
And he will be called
Wonderful Counselor, Might God,
Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace.
Of the increase of his government and peace
there will be no end.

Isaiah 9:6&7a (New International Version)

The Lord is my shepherd,
I shall not want.
He makes me to lie down in green pastures;
He leads me beside quiet waters.
He restores my soul;
He guides me in the paths of righteousness
For His name's sake.
Even though I walk through the valley of the shadow
of death,
I fear no evil; for Thou art with me.
Thy rod and Thy staff, they comfort me.
Thou dost prepare a table before me in the presence of
my enemies;
Thou has anointed my head with oil;
My cup overflows.
Surely goodness and lovingkindness will follow me all
the days of my life,
And I will dwell in the house of the Lord forever.

Psalm 23 (The 23rd Psalm)
