Many who begin to study the bible may read it with lack of understanding. One of the best ways to study the bible is to begin with prayer asking for guidance and direction. Then to begin is to know who the creater, the most high god's name and purpose. To read about the creator begin with the book of Genesis. Understand the God who wrote the bible and why would he create earth for humans and animals.

Read the scriptual account in Genesis when man was created by God and Jesus Christ before he came to earth. It is written in the bible at Genesis 2:4 "This is a history of the heavens and the earth in the time of their being created, in the day that Jehovah God made earth and heaven."

Meditate on this thought how one act of disobedience from both caused the chaos that all of mankind face today. The mark of inherited sin that leads to imperfection.
