TOS054: Basics of Faith II – Basics to Reading the Bible

http://PatriarchMinistries.com

One of the goals of the Truth of the Spirit podcasts is to remind you of the Spirit filled facets of our Christian faith, sometimes returning to the basics to allow you better access to teachings and actions of those inspired by the Holy Spirit. Please join Patti Brunner and Truth of the Spirit to explore Basics of Faith with the Basics to Reading the Bible for Catholics. The Church “forcefully and specially exhorts all the Christian faithful… to learn ‘the surpassing knowledge of Jesus Christ’ (Phil 3:8) by frequent reading of the divine Scriptures” (Catechism #2653). Anybody can pick up a bible, open it, and start reading it. I want to explain to you how the bible is structured so you can understand how wonderful the bible is! The bible teaches us the ancestral history of Jesus true man. But it does more. It helps us to see that Jesus is true God. The Bible is a communication from God to Man. The entire Bible is inspired by the Holy Spirit using human writers to record and share the truth. The Bible shares the Formation & History of God’s people: from Creation and man’s sin to establishment of the Law given to Moses, to the establishment of the Kingdom of David, from rejection of God’s law to the coming of the promised Messiah, the birth of Christ and salvation and then the establishment of the Church.
