WE STUDY THE BIBLE TO LISTEN TO HIS VOICE

"We study the Bible to listen to His voice that comes from outside our experience, not to listen to our own voice that is crying from within.

"His Word is not one of many. It is the only Word that has been there from all eternity because it comes from the eternal God.

"God, then, is not there for our use when we need him; we are here on earth for his use. He is not there for our benefit as if He were a product; we are here for His service and glory."

[Dr. David F. Wells, a distinguished senior research professor at Gordon-Conwell Theological Seminary.]
