Most popular Book

The most popularbook sold in America is the Bible. However, it is also the least read book. Those two statements seem contradictory. Normally one would think that the most popular book would also be the most read book. Why is it that nearly everyone has several Bibles, but most people never think to actually read the Bible? Most places now has a Bible. Bibles are in hospitals, waiting rooms, nursing homes,and  hotels. Many people proudly display a large family Bible in the living room. This begs the question, "Does people really think that just owning a Bible earns them brownie points with God?" If that is the case, then those same people are going to be in for a rude awakening.

Nowhere does it say, "Owning the Bible will get you to heaven." In fact the Bible says, that there is only one way to heaven. The only way to heaven is through Jesus Christ. Therefore, I would highly suggest that you get to know Jesus. The only way to get to know Jesus is to spend time with him. Spending time with Jesus needs to be a daily thing. When spending time with Jesus, he wants to talk with you. He wants you to know more about him. You learn more about him by reading the Bible. Therefore let us stop simply displaying the Bible and start reading the Bible.
