How firm a foundation, ye saints of the Lord is laid for your faith in his excellent word.

If the last several chapters in Revelation haven't boggled your mind, this one will.

That's what our teacher, Dr. J. Vernon McGee, promises about this study on Through the Bible.

Now that's meant to make you smile because we're in safe hands as the Bible bus travels another stretch of road through the last book of the Bible.

Our bus driver, of course, is the Holy Spirit who promises

to lead us into truth, and our tour guide is Dr. McGee, who will point out key sites along the way.

In the very beginning of his ministry, Dr. McGee prepared a resource that he called

Guidelines for Understanding Scripture.

And for more than half a century, it's been helping believers learn how to study God's word for themselves.

So when our study in Revelation is complete, we'll be resetting our five-year journey

through the whole Bible in April on the 3rd. Now, starting with Dr. McGee's

10-part series on these guidelines, you can listen to them then. They're included in our free

compilation of Dr. McGee's notes and outlines as well called Briefing the Bible. Or you can get it

separately as a beautiful digital booklet called How to Understand the Bible. You'll find both for free download

in either our app or at ttb.org. Now, before we dive into God's Word together, be encouraged by a fellow
