Getting Back to Biblical Spiritually Intelligent Bible Study

This book was recommended to me by another reviewer and all I can say is read it. It is so useful in transforming our study of God's Word from an effort to be smart and a better debater to being transformed ourselves into Christ's likeness. The Bible is neither a textbook nor an ammunition depot; it is the Holy Spirit's tool to deal with us regarding our own personal development to Christlikeness and then to declare God's glory, not our sound arguments, to the world (1 Peter 2:9). One will never be able to truly and biblically challenge another person to godliness unless one is progressing that way him/herself. Pink's book is laid out into chapters of practical application, each chapter being enumerated into various points. Each chapter title with each one's enumeration could be copied into an outline and inserted into one's Bible as a guideline to make sure he/she is reading the Bible for the God-given reason it should be read. Here is a 20-century book presenting the oft-forgotten Puritan approach to studying scripture effectively and thoughtfully. Thank you, Joe, for the gift.

This book is like a mini practical theology.It takes the major doctrines of the Bible and examines the effect that should be produced in the life of anyone that has embraced these truths from the heart. Is your life being transformed by the power of God? This book will be of great help to anyone that would like an honest answer to that very important question.
