It is essential for old and young, not only to read God's word, but to study it with wholehearted earnestness, praying and searching for truth as for hidden treasure. Those who do this will be rewarded, for Christ will quicken the understanding. Our salvation depends on knowing the truth contained in the Scriptures. It is God's will that we should possess this.
Search, O search the precious Bible with hungry hearts. Explore God's word as the miner explores the earth to find veins of gold. Never give up the search until you have ascertained your relation to God and His will in regard to you.
We are living in the most important period of earth’s history, when we can almost see the glories on the other shore. By maintaining our allegiance to God, we may bear the noblest testimony for Christ and the truth.
“The entrance of thy words giveth light;
it giveth understanding unto the simple.”
Psalm 119:130
