How to start reading the Bible when you're at that point at 25 when you finally realize you are becoming a Christian ?

Buy a study Bible. Read two chapters daily.

How do you know you're a Christian if you haven't read the Bible?

I understand it's best to read the Gospels first ? Would you recommend some with which you would start first ?

>study Bible
I've found that most put the editor's slant or interpretation on things rather than let you draw your own conclusions - MacArthur is particularly bad.

I'm guessing you hit a low point in your life and think this is the answer.

Well you are right but this is not something that just occured to me recently as one of the options for me. I started considering learning about Christ about 8 months ago and many things I found and experienced in that time confirmed my realization.

Read all four continually until you are familiar. Then either go chronologically or find a weekly plan to follow.

That's why you need to look before you buy. I read from MacArthur because I am of the Reformed faith. There are some study Bibles that are 'impartial', but they would not be study Bibles if they were not teaching you about the truth as they have seen it, would they?

Let him deal with it. Those who seek Christ in joy will seek him in sadness too. It is not usually the reverse, and the Lord acknowledges this. (John 15:6)

read a version with Catholic annotations to make it clearer

Why bother reading a Bible if you're Catholic? It is practically disregarded nine times out of ten.
