Overview:
One of our greatest privileges as modern Christians, especially in the West, is the level of access we have to the Holy Scriptures. This was not always the case, and it still isn't in many parts of the world. As our sole means of knowing our great God, it should be our foremost delight to study His Word. Sadly, many people, professing Christians included, do not realize the gold mine we have in the Bible and don't take the time to excavate its treasures.
