“The sword of the Spirit - the Bible - is the weapon God has provided for us to use in this battle between truth and deception. Make it a priority to wield that sword skillfully.”

Billy Graham

“The Bible in the memory is better than the Bible in the book case.”

Charles Spurgeon

“A pilot without his chart, a scholar without his book, and a soldier without his sword are alike ridiculous. But, above all these, it is absurd for one to think of being a Christian without knowledge of the Word of God and some skill to use this weapon.”

Willam Gurnall

“I know of no other single practice in the Christian life more rewarding, practically speaking, than memorizing Scripture. . . . No other single exercise pays greater spiritual dividends! Your prayer life will be strengthened. Your witnessing will be sharper and much more effective. Your attitudes and outlook will begin to change. Your mind will become alert and observant. Your confidence and assurance will be enhanced. Your faith will be solidified”
