My warm greetings to my fellow steemians in steem for Bangladesh, I trust y'all are doing good in your different destination, my favorite book is the topic of this contest and I'm here to present my entry to y'all, honestly it's a pleasure to publish my first post in this wonderful community.
Introduction |
|---|
Books are everywhere we go, I still remember when I used to write in a book during my school era, probably i used to read a lot of books to prepare for test or Examination, there are a category of books for doctors to read same as lawyers, Engineering, teachers and students and Christian as well, there's also a book that is compulsory for every living souls to read, which book could it be? Is it that special? Yeah it is my favorite book.
What's your favorite book? What kind of content is it providing to its readers? |
|---|
I've read several kinds of books somes which are dramas, poem or literature, but there's this special book I've read that was found in thousands of years back, these book can be find in people houses because it is not scarce and people get it free of charges in some places.
This book has been on earth over the thousands of years and it is still of great use today because of the formative words that are written inside, These books were formally known as scroll during the olden days and it was written by fourty men who were all inspired by the spirit of God, this book consist of 66 books.
Before now you should realize that I'm trying to describe the Bible which is the book of God and my favorite book, the Bible has provided a lot of content to it's readers which I'll highlight some here.
It explains to us how our earth and everything evolved comes to existence, for instance when reading Genesis 1:1-31 we get the full story about how our earth was created, versed 9 an 10 says it clear that when the water under the heaven was collected into one place and the dry land appeared, God then name the dry land earth and name the water sea, others things such as plants and animals were followed including the creation of man.
The Bible provides content that helps people exit bad friends, for instance when reading 1 Corinthians 15:33 it saids Do not be misled. Bad associations spoil useful habits you see now that associating with bad gang will definitely destroy our good characters, we can easily understand that we're affected for good or bad depending on the people we keep associating with.
The Bible entails prophecies that had already fulfilled and once that are yet to fulfill, let's look for this exemplification, through God prophet Isaiah was able to prophesied that Babylon will be destroyed just like Sodom and Gomorrah and he explained how Babylon will be destroyed, after two hundred years the prophecy was fulfilled when Cyrus the King of the persian destroyed Babylon. Isaiah 13:19. Isaiah 44:27–45:2.
The Bible provides content about good news from God, Jesus once promised the criminal behind him that he will live with him in paradise, what is paradise? A place where death, suffering, sickness, war, earthquake, lack of food and the likes of negative things will be no more but rather it will be flourish with Good health, peace and harmony, surplus of good food, everlasting life and the likes of good things will be found, that is what paradise is. Revelation 21:3-4. Isaiah 65:21-25.

My favorite book which is the Bible has helped and converted people of different characters to good, it's content is sharpen than a sword with two edges and it can pierce and divide souls and spirit, let's look at some people's which the Bible has helped through its content.

The Bible is so powerful because it was inspired by God, it is the book of God, everyone has the freedom to read.
After reading this book, have you been influenced by anything that has benefited you in your personal life? |
|---|
Sure! I once have doubts about Bible, I was really concerned if Bible is really the book of God, when i read 2timothy 3:16 the Bible verse says that all scriptures was inspired of God, since then I've been reading several verses of Bible, i was positively influence when I read 1Corinthians 15:33 I find that bad association spoiled bad habits.
Okay... I took to thinking about my friends both in school and the environment I live, I saw that there's alot of bad friends all around, i tried to withdraw myself from them, currently I'm no longer having too much friends, it's not that my new friends are 100% holy no i never expect such from them but at least I've find positive mindset from them.
Selecting good friends have influenced my life for good and I've benefited, if not for my good friend @bossj23 I won't have discovered the #steemit platform where I am now, it was the grace of God through Bible, through Bible I've been able to choose a lot of good friends.
If you ever had the chance to write a book, what genre would it be, and who would benefit from it? |
|---|
It depends on what I focus on, I'm a person that puts interest in helping people grow in God's ways, having the opportunity to write a book it is clear that I'll be writing articles that draw people close to God, it's not hundreds of people that will benefit from it but millions of people will benefit from it.
Conclusion |
|---|
The book Bible is the greatest book that has ever existed in our universe, it has entailed several important messages that helped straighten our faith with God, it draw us close to God when reading, it gives hope of living a better life when living accordingly to it rules, it's rules isn't heavy to follow but it is easy to follow, let's all read the Bible.

The Bible... indeed the greatest book of all times!
There is just so much to learn from it. I don't know about you, but I can read the same passage today and then tomorrow again, and the day thereafter, and every time I will get a different message.
The Bible never ceases to amaze me.
Good luck with the contest, and thank you for the invitation. I've dropped my entry.
