Well not so long ago I decided to read the book of Ephesians, James, Colossians, 1st & 2nd Thessalonians, & 1st Peter without adding any commentary or narrative nor any chapter or verse references. The first thing you should know is how difficult it was to just read through those books without speaking to any of the revelation that they contain. But I did it and well they have been liked by quite a few listeners so I thought I would try to do so with a few more books of the bible. I am not sure how far I will go in this direction as I also get other messages as well. I will try and mix them in between. 

I do think it is a good idea because you can get the entire book in just a few minutes. Front to back without interruption. Now I say that but just reading the bible is not sufficient for learning, so God gave us teachers as well. This is however one way of getting through the books of the bible. Your spirit, new man, inner man, and the Holy Spirit depend on your getting the word down inside of you. If your Christianity is a dead work, it is because of a lack of bible reading time as well as a lack of bible doing time.     

So this message is not about teaching by breaking down the book of 2nd Peter, but about allowing you to seek the nuggets for yourself. This message my friends is about listening. Listen to the words, to the sentences, hear in your very spirit what marvelous things are being said. 

So, I will read the entire book. which will make for a very satisfying spiritual meal. Consider that this could easily have been one church service. Yes, getting all that you are about to hear from just a little more than a few pages in just one church service. 

2nd Tim 2:15 - Be diligent to present yourself approved to God, a worker who does not need to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth.

1st Tim 5:17 - 17 Let the elders who rule well be counted worthy of double honor, especially those who labor in the word and doctrine.

Get your notepad ready and get ready to be astounded at what you are about to hear.
