          now that i think about it, perhaps it is best to let those that are learned about Christ and the bible to read it for me, and then tell me what to do with my life.

          can landover support that Kind of lifestyle?

          will i be banned?

            Matthew:
            5:17 Think not that I am come to destroy the law, or the prophets: I am not come to destroy, but to fulfil.
            5:18 For verily I say unto you, Till heaven and earth pass, one jot or one tittle shall in no wise pass from the law, till all be fulfilled
            10:21 And the brother shall deliver up the brother to death, and the father the child: and the children shall rise up against their parents, and cause them to be put to death.
            10:34 Think not that I am come to send peace on earth: I came not to send peace, but a sword.

              Upon request I will cite scripture for all these facts in God's Holy Word.

                Why would anyone be a believer if they haven't read the Bible (kjv1611)?

                I could see how an atheist could ask that question. Because once someone starts reading everything about eviloution; it doesn't make any sense.

                Christianity is different; the more you read, the EASIER it is to believe.

                  But that verse does it apply to a scholar, a pastor, an elder or does it apply to ALL?

                  I know that ALL should be familiarized with the Word... but should ALL read? Or it'll be fine if the Bible was read to them?

                    It applies to all. You can read the whole chapter here.

                    The passage says study. It is OK to have it read to you, but you should also read it on your own as much as possible.

                    If someone can't read, then I suppose someone else would need to read it to them until they learn to read on their own.
