Why Do I Need to Read the Bible When We Have Bible Teachers Online? || Ask Pastor John

Today more than ever, Christians have access to a wealth of faithful Bible teaching online. So, why do we need to read the Bible for ourselves?

Hello, everyone, and welcome to the final episode of the week. Pastor John joins us today remotely over Skype for this question, all the way from a believer in Hong Kong. “Pastor John, what can I say to my friend that refuses to study the Bible for himself because he thinks he can get all the answers from teachers like you and others online? He thinks that hours spent listening to good and faithful expositions of Scripture is time better spent than reading the Bible for himself. He thinks sermons are less confusing and more efficient in his pursuit to comprehend the message of the Bible. How would you make the case otherwise?”
