The Bible, that most ancient and infallible source of wisdom is the only proper basis for an education. Its historical authenticity, grammatical influence, mathematical precision, scientific validity and literary forms all prove the truth of the above statement from merely an earth-life view. Much more important however, are the spiritual lessons of this great Text.
No man can consider himself educated who hasn’t diligently and systematically combed its pages. Conversely the man who has studied its morals, learned its maxims, and endeavored to follow its pattern of truth has (to the degree in which he devoted himself) received a sound preparation for life, both mortal and immortal. – Edgar A. Bryan, Publishing Bible Reading Charts since 1986
