HowTo: Apply the Bible to Your Life

Bible by diebilly (sxc.hu)

Biblical Application = Godly Transformation

God accepts you just the way you are, but He loves you too much to keep you that way.  Godly transformation is a continual process.  It occurs as we understand and apply what we read daily in God’s Word.  The next time you read your Bible consider these 7 questions provided by Charlie H. Campbell:

  1. Are there commands to obey?
  2. Are there examples to follow?
  3. Are there errors or stumbling blocks to avoid?
  4. Are there sins to forsake?
  5. Are there promises to believe and rejoice in?
  6. Are there principles to live by?
  7. Are there truths about God to trust in?

Charlie H. Campbell says:

The next time you read through a section of Scripture and are tempted to shut your Bible and say, “I don’t know how that applies to me,” refer to this list of questions and go back over the verses you’ve read and watch what happens. I bet you’ll be blessed. God’s Word is amazing and full of treasures for the person who is willing to do a little mining.
