Love for the Scriptures

"If there is anything in my style or thought to be commended, the credit is due to my kind parents in instilling into my mind an early love for the Scriptures" -- Webster.

Love for the Scriptures is an essential attribute for God's people to possess. Without a love for the Scriptures, one could never know what God expects of him. "So then faith cometh by hearing, and hearing by the word of God....But without faith it is impossible to please him: for he that cometh to God must believe that he is, and that he is a rewarder of them that diligently seek him" (Romans 10:17; Hebrews 11:6). Faith is not just what you "feel is right," but what you learn is right through the inspired Word.

Love for the Scriputres leads to blessings. Remember that God "is a rewarder of them that diligently seek him" (Hebrews 11:6). The Psalmist said, "Blessed is the man that walketh not in the counsel of the ungodly, nor standeth in the way of sinners, nor sitteth in the seat of the scornful. But his delight is in the law of the Lord; and in his law doth he meditate day and night" (Psalm 1:1-2).
