À propos de cet ebook

Heritage Edition— interlaced with nearly 300 special illustrations, some 20 charts, and over 100 poems from a century ago.This is a collection of readings on two hundred topics in which are answered nearly four thousand questions on important spiritual and religious subjects, contributed by a large number of Bible students. First published in 1914 as a "NEW, REVISED, AND ENLARGED EDITION," "Illuminated With Nearly Three Hundred Beautiful Illustrations" with "Over 1,250,000 Copies of Former edition Sold." 
 
Briefly stated, a Bible reading consists of questions asked concerning some subject, and answers to them from the Bible. In other words, Bible readings mean a topical study of the Bible by means of questions and answers.  
 
There are two introductory chapters, "The Bible; Its Origin, History, and Place in the World," and "The Value of Bible Study." The two hundred readings are organized under eighteen headings: 
I. THE BIBLE; HOW TO STUDY AND UNDERSTAND IT 
II. SIN; ITS ORIGIN, RESULTS, AND REMEDY 
III. THE WAY TO CHRIST 
IV. LIFE, PARABLES, AND MIRACLES OF CHRIST 
V. THE HOLY SPIRIT 
VI. THE SURE WORD OF PROPHECY 
VII. COMING EVENTS AND SIGNS OF THE TIMES 
VIII. THE LAW OF GOD 
IX. THE SABBATH 
X. CHRISTIAN LIBERTY 
XI. LIFE ONLY IN CHRIST 
XII. CHRISTIAN GROWTH AND EXPERIENCE 
XIII. PRAYER AND PUBLIC WORSHIP 
XIV. CHRISTIAN SERVICE 
XV. ADMONITIONS AND WARNINGS 
XVI. THE HOME 
XVII. HEALTH AND TEMPERANCE 
XVIII. THE KINGDOM RESTORED 
 
The readings in this book as originally prepared were contributed by a large number of Bible workers, whose experience in giving Bible readings had taught them the most effective methods of presenting the different subjects treated.  
 
The reader and student of this volume will gain a richer and clearer understanding of the Bible and of its practical value in everyday life. Especially, will there be a more comprehensive understanding of the end-time prophecies of the books of Daniel and Revelation with such subjects such as the Antichrist; the Rapture; the Mark of the Beast; Armageddon; the Millennium; and Eden Restored. A clear understanding of Bible teaching regarding such subjects as the State of the Dead; What, When, and Where is Hell; and Which is the True Lord's Day will prove to greatly protect one from Satan's end-time deceptions.  
 
"Bible Readings for the Home Circle" will be found an excellent aid to private, family, and public study of the Word of God.
