I agree with you Nathaniel that a thorough and complete Bible study not only help a person to grow in Lord but it also assists in spreading God’s message. If one has limited information about Gods message, it is difficult to apply God’s message in everyday life. More knowledge about scripture also makes it easier to explain the meaning of the Bible to others. For this purpose, the first step can be an outline process that assists in developing the main idea. The outline can be constructed in different ways such as the use of a surefire proposition. Then one can easily move towards introduction that has a purpose of arousing the interest. This interest leads to deep thinking and the conclusion. The conclusion is mostly based on personal opinions. This reading was very effective as it was not only teaching the ways of studying Bible fruitfully but also applying these methods in other subjects.

Travis Payne, you are right we must have all these concepts in our toolbox that we have studied in this week reading so we can use them for extending our relationship with God and preaching his message. Bible study is incomplete without observations. One effective way of making observations is the comparison of multiple translations. The comparison involves the selection of similar and different keywords across different translations. These observations lead to the development of effective introductions ADDIN ZOTERO_ITEM CSL_CITATION {"citationID":"bTfQR29m","properties":{"formattedCitation":"(Gutierrez, Hulshof, & Cartwright, 2016)","plainCitation":"(Gutierrez, Hulshof, & Cartwright, 2016)","noteIndex":0},"citationItems":[{"id":2685,"uris":["http://zotero.org/users/local/KZl8ZL3A/items/GIDXYHYG"],"uri":["http://zotero.org/users/local/KZl8ZL3A/items/GIDXYHYG"],"itemData":{"id":2685,"type":"book","title":"Everyday Bible Study","publisher":"Lifeway Church Resources","URL":"https://books.google.com.pk/books?id=cRVYDQEACAAJ","ISBN":"978-1-4336-5064-2","author":[{"family":"Gutierrez","given":"B."},{"family":"Hulshof","given":"C."},{"family":"Cartwright","given":"P.

A sermon cannot achieve the purpose if there is no effective introduction as they capture the audience attention since from the very beginning. Moreover, this method has also improved my introductions as I was also facing difficulty in this area. Now after this reading I will also be making good and sound introductions. This will not only be effective in this subject but I can also use them in all other subjects.
