How To Study The Bible

Welcome to Into Thy Word's flagship purpose, teaching you how to study the Bible!

      Seek first His kingdom and His righteousness, and all these things will be added to you. Matthew 6:33
 
 
We became a ministry and started to teach people inductive Bible study in the late 70's and became a mission's organization in 1988. These studies have been carefully crafted by years of research and application to teach you how to do it yourself! It is our call to help you to understand what is in His Word, to appreciate, comprehend, and to be challenged to grow richer and deeper in your relationship to Christ and to others around you. Now you can create your own impacting Bible Studies so you can learn and teach others what God has to say to all.
 
The purpose of these articles and essays is to show you the relevance and importance of studying the Bible. See our channels on "Inductive Bible Study" and "Exegetical Bible Study" as well as "Bible Study Methods" for more details on how you can know and apply His Word. In so doing, when you apply God's Word in you and your life, you will be better able to teach it to others too. Also, make sure you check out our main book, Into Thy Word!
 

It is a simple how to guide to help you dig into God's Word, the Bible. Into Thy Word is geared toward challenging you to learn how to better study the Bible! We seek to teach people to use logic induction, reasoning and good inductive and deductive principles by examining the particulars, facts and essence of a text first before making any conclusions. Thus, to lead a mature, meaningful, fruitful, character driven life for Christ's glory!
