Out of the study, into the world

On another subject, do this...read a basic book on biblical doctrine, like that Brief Compend of Bible Truth (Archibald Alexander, free over at Monergism), and go out into the world and SEE what you've read. Look at some guy... there's a son of Adam, a fallen man, under the power of death and Satan .. there's a woman, daughter of Eve, same thing ...there they go struggling to survive, to make a living, just like God said they would. By the sweat of their brow. 

Do that with all doctrines. See yourself in them. 

Look around at this created world. Look how it hangs together by the hand of God. 

Do it with providence, do it with grace. See how nobody is conformed to the image of God. Of Jesus. Very few anyway. 

Constantly go over the basics. Drill down into the basics by getting experiencial with the basics. 

Get truth out of the study and into the real world.

In a higher state you will recite these truths to yourself, see them clearly, in real time and place and in real people and yourself. It can be powerful.
