Acting on Proverbs 25:2
Proverbs 25:2 says that "It is the glory of God to conceal a matter [but] to search out a matter is the glory of kings."
So in the spirit of this verse I am about to undertake probably the most difficult task I have to date. Though I have been a christian for most of my life (I am now 23) there are still bits of the New Teastament I have not read.
To remedy this, and so I can be on my way to making my 'One Trade' the bible, I am committing myself to a systematic look at the entire New Testament, from front to back. I expect that this will take me a long time so I may get sidetracked from time to time with other tid-bits of learning along the way. I will however try to limit these off task Blog entries to between books only.
I am not doing this in order to gain a 'kings glory' for myself, but rather to better understand the glory of God as it will be revealed to me through my study.
