The Bible is one of the best gifts of God to mankind! Having access to God’s word is a tremendous blessing to us. Many were denied access to it in the past and others were killed for possessing it. Men and women have paid dearly with their lives for the life giving book of God! For such the word of God was a treasure beyond measure! They longed to arrange their lives according to the holy writ. God miraculously put the Bible together and protected it for generations from all onslaughts of the enemies. The scriptures are our only security in this sin soaked world! Studying the Bible is a great experience because it brings transformation. When Bible study is done systematically, it yields much fruit. Do you value the word of God? Can you live without it? Read what is written about the Bible by someone who knew it thoroughly!
“THIS BOOK contains the mind of God, the state of man, the way of salvation, the doom of sinners and the happiness of believers. Its doctrines are holy, its precepts are binding, its histories are true, and its decisions are immutable. Read it to be wise, believe it to be safe and practice it to be holy. It contains light to direct you, food to support you and comfort to cheer you. It is the traveller’s map, the pilgrim’s staff, the pilot’s compass, the soldier’s sword and the Christian’s charter. Here paradise is restored, heaven opened and the gates of hell disclosed. Christ is its grand object, our good is its design and the glory of God its end. It should fill the memory, rule the heart, and guide the feet. Read it slowly, frequently, and prayerfully. It is a mine of wealth, a paradise of glory, and a river of pleasure. It is given you in life, will be opened in the judgement, and will be remembered forever. It involves the highest responsibility, will reward the greatest labour, and will condemn all who trifle with its sacred contents.” — Anonymous.
