7 Reasons Why the Bible Is Easy to Understand

1. Because it is a revelation (2Tim. 3:16-17; 2Pet. 1:21; Heb. 1:1).

2. Because of its repeated truths (2Cor. 13:1). All one needs to do with the Bible is find out what God says, where He says it and then believe it.

3. Because it is written in the most simple human terms possible. If it is understood as it is written then it is a simple book (Lk. 24:25,45).

4. Because God is the author (2Tim. 3:16-17; 2Pet. 1:21). A deity that could not express himself as clearly as man does would not be the living, all-knowing God. One who could, yet would not make himself clear and sought to hide from man the very truth he expected to judge him by would be an unjust person. A deity who had to be interpreted every time he spoke would not be worthy of our consideration. The fault in Bible complications is not with God or the Bible, but with men who refuse to believe what God says and think we have to interpret what He says in order to get the meaning.

5. Because it was given by God to be understood by the most simple and trusting people (Dt. 29:29; Mt. 11:25; 13:19-23; 2Cor. 4:1-6; 2Tim. 3:16-17).

6. Because simply reading and believing is all that is required to understand it (Ps. 1:2-3; 2Tim. 2:15; Mt. 11:15).

7. Because 80% of it is plain history, promises, and simple instructions on how to live. The other 20 percent is simple prophecy, or history written beforehand.
