John Owen:
“The Word of God is a divine revelation, a sacred deposit of truth given to us by the Holy Spirit. It is through the Scriptures that we come to know God and His will for our lives. The Puritan must treasure and study the Word of God diligently, for in it are found the keys to eternal life. Let us not neglect the study of Scripture, but let us meditate upon its precepts day and night, that we may grow in grace and knowledge. In the Word of God, we find light for our darkness, comfort for our sorrows, and strength for our weakness.” (From “The Works of John Owen”)
