Message
John Quincy Adams, the sixth President of the United States once said: “So great is my veneration for the Bible that …the earlier my children begin to read it, the more confident will be my hopes that they will prove useful citizens of their country and respectable members of society. I have for many years made it a practice to read through the Bible once every year.”
The Scriptures refer to the whole books of the Bible from Genesis to Revelation. We are commanded to “search the scriptures.” The Bereans were said to have been nobler than those of Thessalonica because they received the Word with all readiness of mind and searched the Scriptures daily. Timothy from a child knew and continued in the Scriptures. The youthful age is a period of learning many things that would make one successful in life. Do not forget that the spiritual knowledge harvested from the Scripture will determine where you will spend eternity. Carefully read the Word. Personally search for the abundant treasures in His Scriptures to be strong in the faith.
