John Bunyan:
“The Word of God is a precious treasure entrusted to us by our heavenly Father. It is through the Scriptures that we come to know God and His will for our lives. The Puritan must cherish 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 Pilgrim’s Progress”)
