Particular portions? Bible is so fascinating but I don't truly believe it's "the inspired and complete Word of God" because of all the inclusions, omissions, (re)translations, etc. etc. and the NT overriding the OT, etc.
Like I feel like I know more about the NT by virtue of knowing the circumstances amid which its books were written and by whom, compared to the NT itself?
Start with the new testiment. My favorite is the first three books and romans but its all good. I find most people have never actually read the bible all the way through, i was one until recently. Once you read it it all just kind of clicks, or at least it did for me. Some parts are hard to hear because I know i havent been living right and i want to be like "no thats not right!" But you know when i think about it.... it is right and ive been the problem. Making the change, or at least trying my best has brought me more peace than anything ive tried.
