There are many Bible verses that extol the value of a serious study of God's Word. For instance, the Psalmist wrote, "Your word I have hidden in my heart, that I might not sin against You." (Psalm 119:11). The apostle Paul exhorted, "Be diligent to present yourself approved to God, a worker who does not need to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth." (II Timothy 2:15). Since it is by God's Word that we shall be judged (John 12:48), it is imperative to our eternal welfare that we carefully examine it and apply it to our lives.
