Every contributor on Wiki s would give a different , depending on their level of interest in The Bible and on how closely they have studied it. I have read the Bible in its entirety and have studied it closely, but I'm sure I still have a lot to learn.

OpinionAccording to the Bible itself, it is essential for a person to have the Holy Spirit to rightly understand (and so gain true knowledge of) its true meaning. This is because the Holy Spirit is the one who inspired the scriptures through using human agency. Thus, as the scripture itself says 'no prophecy is a matter for private interpretation'(this could certainly apply to all scripture and not just prophecy).

People come to the Bible with various preconceptions and convictions which prevent them from understanding both the meaning and the context of the Bible. If people are unwilling to treat the Bible fairly like any other work and read it in context and with proper understanding, they will never gain any useful knowledge of it and only find it an endless source of non-existent contradictions.

Personally it could be said that there has never been found anything written in the Bible which, when rightly understood, in the light of all available information, has ever been proven to be false. In fact, the reverse is the case. This is an encouragement, that the Bible is a book worth trusting, not just in terms of the insights it offers, but in terms of the mesage it conveys. It is trustworthy because the one behind it is to be trusted, because the knowledge conveyed in it is of a person who can be known and who has revealed knowledge about Himself in the pages of His book.

Such knowledge of the Bible itself and of the ultimate author of the Bible is something that the Bible itself encourages - it encourages diligent and thoughtful research and the attainment of knowledge. Personally it could be said that this is the greatest knowledge one can ever attain.
