    Yep. Sure have and continue to read scripture every day. Never owned a bible until I was 50 years old. It stayed dusty for a while and now I can't go a day without reading the inspired word of God.

    Yes, many times over cover to cover.

    Yes. Cover to cover. Twice. Just sections of it after that, but I did go through it from end to end a couple of times to get the feel of where everything was.

    I have and found it to be the greatest of truths. Only God could use crooked stick to draw a straight line to the savior. Then show us how to live as part of His family.

    Yes. Some parts are more important to the Christian Church than others.

    As always, rather than just reading and re-reading the Bible I recommend consulting good scholarly commentaries to get the most from the time spent. I know many here think that God will miraculously provide understanding. But God has given the Church teachers to help us understand what the Bible is saying (according to Paul). Some of the best of these teachers have written commentaries after lifetimes of study. To ignore these offerings is to miss out on what God has provided.

    In my youth - yes, now I just re-look at selected passages.

    Yes my Brother. 10 times cover to cover and many more in my studies. Right now am working on my 11th time straight through. I am not bragging. I am giving God the Glory and the Praise.
    BTW read 3 chapters per day and read it in just less than a year. Read 10 Chapters per day and read in in about 3 months.

    Why not consider where you are posting???
    This is not the place to mouth-off
    I was glad to see rude obnoxious posting in this sub-forum
    eliminated
    Why not use some common sense and respect here

    The entire book, cover to cover, twice. Selected readings as needed. Isn't it odd how two people can read the same exact thing and arrive at different interpretations, and be convinced of their interpretation enough to bitterly argue about it? But...it is so.

    One would assume, or at least hope, that all members of the Body of Christ are a Mutual Admiration Society.

    Im not sure bout that one jmort. I dont follow a specific doctrine. There is some that would say im not saved, and some that say im luke warm, and some say im doing good. I know some folks that go to revivals a lot, and never miss church. I dont go to revivals cause I aint got no interest, and I miss church about 2 times a month. I currently go to a methodist church, and I am a trustee there, but not a member. I dont believe in some of the doctrine. I dont say its wrong, but I dont blindly swallow it cause the higher ups say it comes from God. Basically I dont judge my relationship with God by what the church or others say it should be, nor do I let others head my moral compass. I try to please God the best I know how, not the way the church body expects me to.

    I have several times. It was hardest getting through Numbers. Revelations has been my favorite since my dad's passing (for several reasons).
