Reading the bible is unlike reading other books. You need to have an open mind and knowledge prior to reading the bible. Otherwise you are bound to misinterpret the verses or some of the verses. At the very least you're going to plainly ignore some of the verses because you never understand them which is what I've been doing for quite some time.
I don't read the bible too often(being a typical Catholic) and now I realize that you have to be rather wise, and knowledgeable to know what exactly the bible is trying to say. I came to this conclusion after a personal revelation of sort. Nothing big but it opened my eyes to some of the most bewildering verses I found in the bible. I never understood them and to be honest I had been refusing to understand them because it was contradictory to what I've been told and believed. Now I understand them and accept them as the truth though it makes a few otherverses which wasn't perplexing to me now are. Like deciphering some lots of verses and that results in the encryption of a few others. I need again more knowledge. Either from men or above.
