On the Bible
Never forget that the Bible is not just a "bunch of books put together" where some are more important than others.. do not believe those who say that we live in the time of the New Testament and that the Old has no great importance.
The Bible is a series of books that are related with each other to tell us abut Jesus.
The Old Testament is very important, you need to learn to love and study. See the Bible as a complete book. One covenant preceding a new and better covenant.
In the Old Testament, Learn of God, see how we see all the time only a shadow of Jesus in the tabernacle, learn about the offerings, the sacrifices, the law, the circumcision, Moses, Abraham, Jacob, of Egypt, of their slavery of their deliverance, of their sin, of Gods forgiveness, learn about the plagues, learn of the prophets, of Adam, of our sin, of Jesus, who is He, why was it important that He came, what did He do, His love, His mercy, His justice, His wrath ,His creation, learn the doctrines of salvation, election, His sovereignty, adoption, justification, sanctification, the Lord's Day, the Lord's Supper, baptism, learn of his coming, learn of the hope that we have in Him, learn to fear him and reading the Bible and reading it all.. Study it, make it part of your every day life.
Learn it enough that in your life, Jesus will be FAR more persuasive that the world.
