Read the Bible seriously

Some friends and I read Psalm 19:7-14 together tonight.

As we came to understand the passage together, the following points seemed relevant to us:

• We should take God's word seriously.  Think it through.  Understand it.  Don't question it as something to be trifled with or for making jokes out of, but to understand it as coming from somebody with power and authority.
• Sometimes, we do not know what is right and true, unless another points it out to us.  God's point of view is even more relevant than that of another person.
• We do not like to be corrected, but we will appreciate it when we see that it is beneficial.
• We may dread correction at first, but when can come to love it when we see how it changes us for good.
• We need to be kept from willful sin.  The way this works is through constantly seeing things God's way, and choosing His way instead of our own.

How unlike commercials and the way society works!  We would rather think of ourselves as right, and do things our own way!

But what do you think?  Is there any other book that guides us towards God's way other than the Bible?  Do other scriptures work also?  Is God's way really relevant?  Isn't our own way good enough?

What if we misunderstand God's way, and come up with many interpretations of it?

How do we get it right?  What benefit is it to get it right?  Is there really any right and wrong?

What do you believe?  Why?
