The Lesson Learned

“We may be certain that whatever God has made prominent in His Word, He intended to be conspicuous in our lives.” Charles Spurgeon

“If you wish to know God, you must know his Word. If you wish to perceive His power,
you must see how He works by his Word. If you wish to know His purpose before it comes to pass, you can only discover it by His Word.” C.H. Spurgeon

“Beware of reasoning about God's Word - obey It.” Oswald Chambers

“To read His message in moments, I’ll need to read His passion on the page; wear the lens of the Word, to read His writing in the world.” Ann Voskamp

“Our claim is that God has revealed Himself by speaking; that this divine (or God-breathed) speech has been written down and preserved in Scripture; and that Scripture is, in fact, God’s Word written, which therefore is true and reliable and has divine authority over men.” John Stott

“Jesus claimed that the Word of God is inspired, accurate, authoritative, infallible, unerring, and trustworthy down to its smallest elements. Every single Word of the Bible is precious.” Robert J. Morgan

“Meditation is holding the Word of God in the mind until it has affected every area of one’s life and character.” Andrew Murray

“The bottom line is that when the church has moved away from the Bible as the complete and clear Word of God, it has moved away from Christ.” David Robertson

“We Christians too often substitute prayer for playing the game. Prayer is good; but when used as a substitute for obedience, it is nothing but a blatant hypocrisy, a despicable Pharisaism...To your knees, man! And to your Bible! Decide at once! Don't hedge! Time flies! Cease your insults to God, quit consulting flesh and blood. Stop your lame, lying, and cowardly excuses. Enlist!” C. T. Studd
