The Bible. The World's Least Read Book |
Yes that's how it is. Perhaps due to laziness (most likely), perhaps due to ignorance, perhaps because we have associated this Sacred Book with a religion that has disappointed us, since the vast majority of human beings have not read two consecutive chapters of this wonderful book: The Bible.
It is often said that the Bible is the most read book in the world but it is not true. The Bible may be the best-selling and most-bought book in the world, but not the most widely read.
Do you have a Bible in your house? Great. Have you read the Bible you have at home? Well that's good too, but the vast majority of those who have a Bible at home have it as a dust collector and have never opened it. The vast majority of people have not even read the first book of the Bible, otherwise another rooster would have sung, and the world would be a better world.
The Bible. A Complex Life Manual for the Perfect Man |
Hopefully, this article can encourage all those kind-hearted people who want to read and learn to be better beings and dare to open the Bible. Hopefully the people of the world can take the opposite to this article because the Bible is achieved to be the most read book in the world.
There are also Bibles in hospitals, clinics, hotels, residences, libraries, etc., but who reads those Bibles? Maybe no one.
Religions and sects based on the Bible distribute these books everywhere. Much to my regret, many of them end up in a dumpster.
Many people, throughout my career, have told me that you don't come to Earth, that you are not born with a manual for life, but yes, the Bible is a manual for life. When I remind them of the Life Manual, which is the Bible, those same people have always answered me the same: "But it is very fat." Let's see if we understand each other, first we want a life manual but we want it with two pages. A life manual for a perfect and complex human being is not written in two pages.
The Bible, a Fat Book What did you expect from God, four pages? |
Desiring, wanting, but without putting anything on their part, is a classic when it comes to human beings in general, and shows how little self-responsibility they are willing to put into their lives. Better that others read the Bible, that they read it to me aloud, that they make me a film, or a recording, so, perhaps, sitting in the armchair in my living room, it may be that I dedicate a little time to the Word of God .
Most of the people who have read, studied, investigated the Bible, have been scientists, writers, researchers, and also, they have done it in a negative way, that is, to look for errors, failures, to demonstrate in a "scientific way" that the Bible is not the Word of God. Those who search for errors in the book, in a logical and scientific way, instead of looking for love, reading the book with their hearts, with their feelings, do not take much care of the biblical teachings.
Anyway, one day I realized that all the books that deserve their name were based on or quoted from the Bible, its teachings, its characters. Perhaps, in our deep ignorance we have forgotten the Finger of God that he has made without us realizing that the Bible is the most widely read book in the world, even indirectly...
