Bibliology is the study of what the Bible teaches concerning itself (the Greek word biblios means a book, volume, scroll). I pray this study on the Bible in regards of what the Bible teaches about itself will help you understand the Bible more which is the very Word of God which in turn I pray will allow you to grow in your relationship with the God of the Bible. I will present some verses in which the Bible speaks about itself.

2 Timothy 3: 15 and that from childhood you have known the Holy Scriptures, which are able to make you wise for salvation through faith which is in Christ Jesus.
16 All Scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness, 17 that the man of God may be complete, thoroughly equipped for every good work.

Paul wrote to Timothy and said that ever since Timothy's childhood he had known about the Holy Scriptures which is the only book in the world that can make us wise or give us knowledge of salvation through faith in Christ Jesus. The reason that the Scriptures can grant the reader the wisdom or knowledge for salvation is because it is inspired by God and profitable for doctrine, reproof, correction, and instruction in righteousness so that the man of God may be complete and thoroughly equipped for every good work. The Greek Word theopneustos means "inspired by God" and comes from the Greek words: (Theos, "God," pneo, "to breathe") so God spoke His Word or breathed His Word and it was written down by 40 + people over a period of 1500 years or more.

I Thessalonians 2:13 For this reason we also thank God without ceasing, because when you received the word of God which you heard from us, you welcomed it not as the word of men, but as it is in truth, the word of God, which also effectively works in you who believe.

The Bible is the truth, word of God, and it effectively works in people who believe it to be truth and believe that God is true. The Greek Word energeo means "to put forth power, be operative, to work" (its usual meaning), is rendered by the verb "to work effectually," or "to be effectual," in the AV of 2 Cor. 1:6; Gal. 2:8; 1 Thess. 2:13; in each case the RV translates it by the simple verb "to work" (past tense, "wrought").

Matthew 5:18 For assuredly, I say to you, till heaven and earth pass away, one jot or one tittle will by no means pass from the law till all is fulfilled.

God's Word will stand strong no matter what happens, whatever God said would come to past in the Bible will come to past at the exact time God has set forth for it to happen.

Galatians 3:16 Now to Abraham and his Seed were the promises made. He does not say, “And to seeds,” as of many, but as of one, “And to your Seed,”a]">[a]who is Christ.

The biggest promise to those who believe in the God of Abraham is the Seed of Abraham which is Jesus Christ who is actually the One that Abraham put his faith in. Abraham looked forward to Christ just as we do.

Psalm 119: 89 Forever, O LORD,
Your word is settled in heaven.

The Word of God is eternal and settled securely in heaven.

Samsung makes it clear, they are not interested in buying RIM
Despite the recent (and somewhat believable) rumors about Samsung considering a purchase of RIM, it looks like that will not be happening.

Super Bowl 2012: Power Ranking Matchups That Would Bore Us to Sleep
By Eric Ball Larry French/Getty Images The Super Bowl matchup needs to be a good one because either way we are going to be subjected to two weeks of endless hype and storylines.

Daily Bible Study: Principles of Kingdom Living #1 Authority Of The Word
LESSON 1 THE AUTHORITY OF THE WORD By Dr. George Watkins (1) What is the Bible? The Bible is the Word of God. The source of the Bible is God, and all scripture is given by the inspiration of God. Inspiration means that the Word was “God breathed”, or divinely created. God purposed that it be beneficial to us as a governing or guiding factor in our lives. (2 Timothy 3:16-17) says that “All scriptu
Devotional: Awaiting Formation(s) In Your Life
Cave formations are slowly formed by water moving over the rock’s surface, depositing layers of minerals over a period of time. Although they have not taken as long to form as evolutionists claim,1 a casual observer of an active stalactite or stalagmite may only understand it to be nothing much more than a pointy, wet rock. However, if you could have the opportunity to observe the beginning yea
Health Study: God still holds the eating of unclean flesh as an abomination!
By: Shaila D Touchton God‘s law is applicable to all of mankind not just particularly a group or sect or particular religion. Pig belong to the forbidden animals, and not allowed to be eaten by the believers because Pig eats almost anything dirty and these creatures are scavengers and feed on the waste and filth of the earth, whether in the waters or on the land. Pigs are high in fat, cholestero
Sony developing Transformer Prime rival that runs Windows 8?
There appears to be three schools of thought when it comes to how you should interact with a tablet. The first, and most obvious, is touch-only. Then there are touch plus stylus offerings like the Samsung Galaxy Note and Asus Eee Pad MeMo. Finally, there are convertibles like the Asus Transformer Prime. It’s that last category that Sony appears to be eyeing up, though they’re going to go the Windo
Polaroid introduces a camera that runs Android
Of the many manufacturers announcing Android products at CES, you wouldn’t expect one of them to be Polaroid. But the company surprised us all with its latest device, the SC1630 Smart Camera. The device doesn’t only pack 16 megapixels with optical zoom; it has an unknown version of Android under the hood. At first glance of the front of the SC1630, you may think you were looking at a new smartphon
Daily Bible Study: Dwelling in Unity
By: Glenn Washburn Behold, how good and how pleasant it is for brethren to dwell together in unity! It is like the precious ointment upon the head that ran down upon the beard even Aaron’s beard: that went down to the skirts of his garments; as the dew of Hermon, and as the dew that descended upon the mountains of Zion: for there the LORD commanded the blessing, even life for evermore. Psalm 133
Daily Bible Study: The Holy Spirit and His Work in the “Born Again” Believer
  [ ART | MUSIC | KNOWLEDGE| HEALTH ] When Jesus was physically on earth He had asked people to believe in Him and follow. Jesus said to His disciples that He was going to leave and go back to where He came from, Heaven (John 3:13; 6:38.) But He would not leave us without a Helper; he called Him the comforter, (another like himself). In Jn.14:16 Jesus says to the disciples, soon to be apostles

Daily Bible Study: Conversion from Sin Lesson #2
Lesson #2: Conditions for Receiving Forgiveness (Part 1) We have learned that all people have committed sin, bringing upon themselves the penalty of eternal punishment. But by the grace of God, Jesus died as the sacrifice for the sins of mankind. He thereby made salvation available to all people (Mark 16:15,16; Luke 24:47; Titus 2:11; 1 Timothy 2:4,6; 2 Peter 3:9; Hebrews 2:9; John 3:16; Act
Should Voters Apply a Religious Test to Candidates

He also has spent time in the business world, has an impeccable personal life, a deep understanding of the issues, and is eloquent in speech and moderate in temperament. Sounds like a dream candidate, right? But imagine that, a
