In Christian communities, Bible study is the study of the Bible by ordinary people as a personal religious or spiritual practice.	在基督教群體中，查經是普通人對聖經的研習，作為個人在宗教上或靈性上的修行。
Some denominations may call this devotion or devotional acts; however in other denominations devotion has other meanings.	有些宗派或稱之為靈修，但對於其他宗派，靈修一詞別有含義。
Bible study in this sense is distinct from biblical studies, which is a formal academic discipline.	查經在此意義上有別於正規學術課程中的聖經研修。
In Evangelical Protestantism, the time set aside to engage in personal Bible study and prayer is sometimes informally called a Quiet Time.	在基督新教福音派中，特別安排作個人查經及祈禱的時間，有時泛稱為靜修。
In other traditions personal Bible study is referred to as "devotions".	在其他傳統中，個人查經則稱為「靈修」。
Catholic devotions and Anglican devotions both employ the Lectio Divina method of Bible reading.	天主教靈修及聖公宗靈修均採用靈閱來閱讀聖經。
Christians of all denominations may use Study Bibles and Bible Reading notes to assist them in their personal Bible studies.	所有宗派的基督徒或會用研經書籍及讀經筆記來輔助查經。
However, the use of such aids is discouraged in many churches, which advocate the simple reading of Bible passages.	不過，很多提倡簡單讀經的教會都不鼓勵使用這些輔助工具。
In some cases, the practice of reading through the entire Bible in a year is followed, this usually requires readings each day from both the Old and New Testament.	有些教會跟從一年讀經法，每天閱讀新舊約某些章節，讓信徒一年就能讀畢聖經一次。
This practice, however, has been widely criticised on the basis that the understanding gained of each specific passage is too vague.	然而，這個方法備受多方抨擊，認為如此讀經無助深入明白每篇經文的意義。
The association of Bible study and prayer is an important one.	查經與祈禱的連繫是重要一環。
Christians do not merely study the Bible as an academic discipline, but with the desire to know God better.	基督徒不只在學術層面閱讀聖經，更渴望加深對上帝的認識。
Therefore, they frequently pray that God will give them understanding of the passage being studied.	因此，他們恆常禱告，祈求上帝幫助他們明白每篇研讀過的經文。
They also consider it necessary to consider what they read with an attitude of respect, rather than the critical attitude which is frequently followed in formal study.	他們亦認為閱讀時應予以敬重的態度，而非一般學習中評論的態度。
To them, the Bible is not just a sacred book, but is the very Word of God, that is, a message from God which has direct relevance to their daily lives.	聖經於他們並非只是一本神聖書籍，而是上帝寶貴的話語，與他們日常生活息息相關的訊息。
