According to J. C. Ryle, next to praying there is nothing so important in practical religion as Bible reading. God in his mercy has given us a book \u2018which is able to make us wise unto salvation through faith which is in Christ Jesus\u2019 (2 Tim. 3:15). By reading the Bible we may learn what to believe, what to be, and what to do; how to live with comfort, and how to die in peace.<\/p>\n
Can anything, therefore, be more important than being in possession of a Bible? However, to have a Bible is one thing, to read it is quite another. Happy is the one who not only has a Bible but who reads it, obeys it, and makes it the rule of one\u2019s faith and practice!<\/p>\n
In this little book Ryle clearly explains why we ought to value the Bible highly, to study it regularly, and to make ourselves thoroughly acquainted with its contents.<\/p>\n
This book consists of material extracted from Ryle\u2019s Practical Religion, which is also published by the Trust.<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Book Description According to J.
