Whatever the order you choose, you should start reading PSALMS now.
Unless you are incapable you should be able to read it simultaneously.

Probably should read Gospels and at least the first part of Genesis early on;
Gospels since its about the life and teachings of Jesus (should be the essence of Christianity).
Proverbs and Revelations are cool too.

96:7.2.
The Psalms are the work of a score or more of authors; many were written by Egyptian and Mesopotamian teachers. During these times when the Levant worshiped nature gods, there were still a goodly number who believed in the supremacy of El Elyon, the Most High.
96:7.3.
No collection of religious writings gives expression to such a wealth of devotion and inspirational ideas of God as the Book of Psalms. And it would be very helpful if, in the perusal of this wonderful collection of worshipful literature, consideration could be given to the source and chronology of each separate hymn of praise and adoration, bearing in mind that no other single collection covers such a great range of time. This Book of Psalms is the record of the varying concepts of God entertained by the believers of the Salem religion throughout the Levant and embraces the entire period from Amenemope to Isaiah. In the Psalms God is depicted in all phases of conception, from the crude idea of a tribal deity to the vastly expanded ideal of the later Hebrews, wherein Yahweh is pictured as a loving ruler and merciful Father.
96:7.4.
And when thus regarded, this group of Psalms constitutes the most valuable and helpful assortment of devotional sentiments ever assembled by man up to the times of the twentieth century. The worshipful spirit of this collection of hymns transcends that of all other sacred books of the world.

Nathaniel, never permit yourself for one moment to believe the Scripture records which tell you that the God of love directed your forefathers to go forth in battle to slay all their enemies—men, women, and children.
Such records are the words of men, not very holy men, and they are not the word of God.
The Scriptures always have, and always will, reflect the intellectual, moral, and spiritual status of those who create them.

Where in the Bible does it say religious truth wisdom and value can only come from the Bible?

The Bible doesnt say the Bible is true as no author of any of the books of the Bible were alive when the Bible was collected into one book.

Only religion can save you; religious philosophy of life is the most meaningful and relevant philosophy to engage.
