New Believer's Bible Sample - Flipbook - Page 5
Welcome!
CONGRATULATIONS! You are holding in your hands the bestselling book in the
history of humanity—the Bible. Although the Bible has been around for some
time, the wisdom and knowledge contained within are still relevant today. In
fact, everything you need to know about God and life is found in the pages of
this book. It is the “user’s manual of life” that we have all been searching for.
The Bible does not just teach us about life, though. It also shows us how to
come into a personal relationship with the very God who inspired this book.
This particular Bible contains features that have been specially designed to
help you understand, discover, and deepen the relationship that God wants
to have with you.
Perhaps you are not yet a believer in Jesus Christ, but you want to know
more about Jesus Christ and the Christian faith. You may even want to be a
believer, but you just don’t know how to become one. Turn to the section titled
“How You Can Know God” (page A10) to learn how to establish a life-changing
relationship with Jesus.
Maybe you have just discovered the Christian faith, and you are a new believer. This Bible and its study notes will help you lay a good foundation for
your faith and learn how to walk closely with God in the years ahead. You may
be a believer who is mature in the faith. You will be refreshed and reminded of
the essentials of the Christian faith and life.
Main Features
After the article “How You Can Know God,” you will find a list of Big Questions
and the pages where you find answers to them. In the pages of the Bible itself,
you will find three different kinds of study notes: Cornerstones, First Steps,
and Off & Running. You can follow specific topics through the Bible by starting
with the first note in each topic and turning to the next note in that topic by
following the page direction at the end of the note. Or you can choose a book of
the Bible to read, and consider each study note in that book as you come to it.
