Introduction:
Religion is a form of worship. It includes a system of religious attitudes, beliefs, and
practices; these may be personal, or they may be advocated by an organization.
Usually, religion involves belief in God or a number of gods; or it treats human
objects, desires, or forces as objects of worship. Much religion is based on a
human study of nature; there is also revealed religion. There is a true religion and
false.

Lesson Presentation:
Why Read the Bible? In addition, we live in an age of hard choices. Many, for
example, are implacably opposed to abortion, calling it murder of the unborn.
Others feel just as strongly that women have authority over their own bodies and
should decide such a matter for themselves. Many views homosexuality, adultery,
and premarital sex as rank immorality. Others believe these practices are a matter
of personal choice.
Who is to say who is right and who is wrong? 2 Thessalonians 6:15 The Bible offers
guidance in matters of morality, and it describes effective solutions to the
problems of crime, hunger, and pollution. The trouble is most people no longer
view the Bible as an authority in such matters. At one time, it was listened to with
respect — at least in the West. Although the Bible was written down by humans, in
the past the majority in Christendom accepted it as the Words of God and
believed that God himself has inspired its contents. 2 Tim.3:16-17; 1 Thess. 2:13.
answer that question, consider this point: If the Bible is merely man’s word, then,
logically there is no clear answer to mankind’s problems. Humans will just have to
muddle through as best they can, hoping somehow to avoid poisoning
themselves out of existence or blowing themselves up in a nuclear war. But, if the
Bible is the Word of God, it is the very thing we need to get us through this difficult
time.
