How should you read and study the Bible? Is it a book that you read and wait for your own "Ah Ha!" moments or does the Bible have a structure and a message you need to understand, the way the Author intends? Does it matter? Of course it matters. The Bible claims to be the self-revelation of God Himself. So what He says matters. What He wants you to know about Him matters or why would He bother? He was under no obligation to bother. Better then get to studying and in studying, doing so properly as God intends.
