DAILY READINGS: Gen. 30; Job 40-41; Matt . 16:13 to 17:13
These were more noble than those in Thessalonica, in that they received the word with all readiness of mind, and searched the scriptures daily, whether those things were so. Acts 17:11
Like the Bereans, Daniel Webster (1782-1852), U.S. senator and noted orator, said of the Scriptures: “They have been my daily study and vigilant contemplation.” Is this true of us? It was Martin Luther who said, “You cannot read the Scriptures too much; and what you read, you cannot read too well; and what you read well, you cannot too well understand; and what you can understand well, you cannot too well teach; and what you teach well, you cannot too well live.”—W.

Holy Bible, book divine, precious treasure, thou art mine;
Mine to chide me when I rove; mine to show a Saviour’s love. —J. Burton
