New Year’s Commitments

Card’s for commitments — been discussing for a month…

Want to begin the year Orienting you to the Bible...

Bring em

Pull em out

Carry em

Turn them on

We begin the series The Good Book with your intentions...

Pragmatics — It is going to take you about 100 hours to read the Bible.

8,760 hours in a year...

2500-2700 hours sleeping

2500 hours working — 6 days a week x 8 hours per day. (Sabbath)

Thats 5100 hours of your year working and sleeping.

That leaves 3,600 hours — roughly — “free”

That is 152 days.

To read the Bible through in a year is 4 of those days.

Passages from the Bible about the Bible

Ezra

2 Timothy

2 Timothy 3:10–17 NIV

10 You, however, know all about my teaching, my way of life, my purpose, faith, patience, love, endurance, 11 persecutions, sufferings—what kinds of things happened to me in Antioch, Iconium and Lystra, the persecutions I endured. Yet the Lord rescued me from all of them. 12 In fact, everyone who wants to live a godly life in Christ Jesus will be persecuted, 13 while evildoers and impostors will go from bad to worse, deceiving and being deceived. 14 But as for you, continue in what you have learned and have become convinced of, because you know those from whom you learned it, 15 and how from infancy you have known the Holy Scriptures, which are able to make you wise for salvation through faith in Christ Jesus. 16 All Scripture is God-breathed and is useful for teaching, rebuking, correcting and training in righteousness, 17 so that the servant of God may be thoroughly equipped for every good work.
