Day 150 8-19

Moving on in Living By the Book to chapter on Reading Telescopically. 
*The Bible is not simply a collection of parts. It is an integrated message in which the whole is greater than the sum of the parts. 
*Don't get caught reading fragments of the Bible and not relating it to the whole. Tie the author's message together in my mind. What's the big picture?
* Where does the book fit historically? Where does this book fit in the flow of the Bible?
* God is the God of history who works in and through real people in the real world to accomplish His purposes!

I am going to do the exercises provided for Judges in the Old Testament.
