The whole Bible is a revelation of the glory of GOD in Christ. Received, believed, obeyed, it is the great instrumentality in the transformation of character. It is the grand stimulus, the constraining force, that quickens the physical, mental, and spiritual powers, and directs the life into right channels.The reason why the youth, and even those of mature years, are so easily led into temptation and SIN, is that they do not study the word of GOD and meditate upon it as they should. The lack of firm, decided will power, which is manifest in life and character, results from neglect of the sacred instruction of GOD's word. They do not by earnest effort direct the mind to that which would inspire pure, holy thought and divert it from that which is impure and untrue.
The truth of the Bible, received will uplift mind and soul. If the word of GOD were appreciated as it should be, both young and old would possess an inward rectitude, a strength of principle, that would enable them to resist temptation. Let men teach and write the precious things of the Holy Scriptures. Let the thought, the aptitude, the keen exercise of brain power, be given to the study of the thoughts of GOD. Study not the philosophy of man's conjectures, but study the philosophy of HIM who is truth. NO other literature can compare with this in value.
The mind that is earthly finds no pleasure in contemplating the word of GOD; but for the mind renewed by the Holy Spirit, divine beauty and celestial light shine from the sacred page. That which to the earthly mind was a desolate wilderness, to the spiritual mind becomes a land of living streams...
