How would you endeavor to interest an indifferent person in the study of the Bible?

First of all, I should get him to accept Jesus Christ as his Savior, and then show him that the Bible is God’s Word to him, and that the only way to be strong and grow in grace is to study the Word. I would then explain to him some simple method of Bible study and set him at it. The best way for a converted person to become interested in the study of the Bible is to get to actually studying it. The more one studies it the more his taste for Bible study increases.

After reading the Gospel of John, I would have the young disciple read the Gospel of Mark, then Luke, then Matthew. After this I would urge him to study the Acts of the Apostles, then the Epistle to the Romans. I think after that I would set him to reading the whole New Testament through in the order of the books.
