Sobre IBD

The Bible is not an easy book to understand. It is a complicated compilation of many voices across thousands of years, written in different languages and cultural contexts. Its content ranges from historical accounts and poetry to prophetic messages and moral teachings, making it a challenging but rewarding text to study and interpret. The complexity of the Bible requires careful consideration and study to fully grasp its meaning and significance. Those who truly love the scriptures should be those most willing to learn how to take it seriously in order to understand it. This means being open to studying the historical context, cultural background, and original languages in which the scriptures were written. It also involves seeking guidance from knowledgeable teachers and scholars, as well as engaging in prayer and meditation to discern the deeper meanings and messages within the text. Taking the scriptures seriously requires a humble and open-hearted approach to learning and growing in one’s understanding of the sacred texts.
