It is a quotes from JC RYLE about the importance of the Word in our lives and our daily use of it!
Here are some highlights and the full thing can be read here:
You live in a world where your soul is in constant danger. Enemies are
round you on every side. Your own heart is deceitful. Bad examples are
numerous. Satan is always laboring to lead you astray. Above all false
doctrine and false teachers of every kind abound. This is your great
danger.
To be safe you must be well armed. You must provide
yourself with the weapons which God has given you for your help. You
must store your mind with Holy Scripture. This is to be well armed.
Arm
yourself with a thorough knowledge of the written word of God. Read
your Bible regularly. Become familiar with your Bible. . . . Neglect
your Bible and nothing that I know of can prevent you from error if a
plausible advocate of false teaching shall happen to meet you. Make it
a rule to believe nothing except it can be proved from Scripture. The
Bible alone is infallible. . . . Do you really use your Bible as much
as you ought?
There are many today, who believe the Bible, yet
read it very little. Does your conscience tell you that you are one of
these persons?
very good and challenging post Jim.
