There is nothing Christian about the Bible. It was ordained by a holy God for His holy people. It benefits only those who are sanctified by the holy Ghost, or who are sincerely seeking to be sanctified. To every ungodly soul that studies it, it can be deadly, for "the letter killeth", but to every soul to whom God blesses its pages, "the Spirit gives life".
When you approach the Bible, approach it with fear and trembling, for it speaks of holy things, hidden from the proud since the foundation of the world but revealed by the Spirit to the humble.
