Nobody ever outgrows Scripture; the book widens and deepens with our years.
The Bible is not an antiquated text. The scriptures are the text that will lead us into the future.
Do not try to make the Bible relevant. Its relevance is axiomatic.
If there was no Bible, it would be no matter whether you could read or not. Reading other books would do you no good.
All of Scripture is for us but not all of Scripture is to us.
Scripture is the most up-to-date and relevant reading that ever comes my way.
The scriptures were one of the ways God spoke to me - even when I was a child - about my needs, my situation, and my life. They still are. Since our needs change over a lifetime, God has different things to tell us at different times.
Newspapers have become more important to the average man than the scriptures.
I think a new world will arise out of the religious mists when we approach our Bible with the idea that it is not only a book which was once spoken, but a book which is now speaking.
All Scripture is equally inspired, but not all Scripture is equally applicable or relevant to every stage of life.
