Back to Basics: How do I build a connection with Holy Scripture? by Fr. Anthony Mourad

Back to Basics: How do I build a connection with Holy Scripture?
In the name of the Father, and the Son, and the Holy Spirit, One God, Amen.
We’ve all been told a thousand times in Church and Sunday School: Say your Prayers, Read your Bible… but have you ever grappled with trying to read scripture consistently? Or do you struggle to understand what you read? Then this video is for you. Let’s take a look at this together.
My beloved, it seems obvious to all of us that one of the most essential aspects of the life of the Christian believer, is the belief that Holy Scripture is the inspired word of God handed down to us by the Church in holy written tradition. And no one can believe this and not exert an honest effort in attempting to daily reading scripture.

Excellent! I especially loved the quote from St Ephraim and the way that you anchored the benefit of reading scripture to the very presence of the Holy Spirit who turns these written words into living words in our minds, soul and spirit. I am very grateful for this teaching series you and the other fathers provide for us in and by the Grace of God.

Sola Scriptura is a Modern (post-1500) Heresy. However, if we do not know the Word of God (the Bible), we will not know the Word of God (Jesus Christ). So said Saint Jerome. Christ left us a Church, not a Bible. In fact, it is His Church that gave us the Bible (complete). That is why we read the Bible, in the Holy Spirit, within the Church, with the Fathers (Apostolic Tradition). Otherwise, left to our own devices, we will come up with 40,000 different interpretations, like so many Protestants.
