"GIVE ME THE BIBLE"

Times change, seasons come and go, the weather varies each day, but the Bible remains the same. The Bible is the only book that never needs to be updated, or revised. It is never obsolete or out-of-date. It speaks to every person, in every century, and in every culture. Like it's ultimate Author—Jesus Christ—the Bible "is the same yesterday, and to day, and for ever" (Hebrews 13:8; cf. John 1:1-2).

The Bible never changes, yet it is the only Book that can change our lives. "Many books can inform you, but only one Book can transform you" (Samuel Koranteng Pipim). "Why is it that some Christians, although they hear many sermons, make but slow advances in the divine life? Because they neglect their closets, and do not thoughtfully meditate on God's Word..., half our fears arise from neglect of the Bible" (Charles H. Spurgeon). "The Bible is God's voice speaking to us" (Ellen G. White).

"It is not only your body that gets hungry. Your mind gets hungry too, as does your spirit. Your body eats food. Your mind eats books while your spirit eats the Word of God. A balanced diet is not protein, carbs, and fruit and vegetables. It is food, books and Scripture" (R. Omokri). "Let us study the Bible, for if we do so, we shall find rest for our souls" (Samuel Koranteng Pipim). God loves you! (2 Timothy 2:15; cf. John 5:39; John 17:17).
