All scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for
doctrine,
for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness:
- 2 Timothy 3:16

Bill Gates, founder of computer-software giant Microsoft, extols
the virtues of the written word: "People cannot become truly
knowledgeable without being excellent readers. While multimedia
systems can use video and sound to deliver information in compelling
ways, text is still one of the best ways to convey details.
I try to make time for reading each night. In addition to the
usual news-
papers and magazines, I make it a priority to read at least one
newsweekly from cover to cover. If I were to read only what intrigues
me - say the science and business sections - then I would finish the
magazine the same person I was when I started. So I read it all."
"Personal Glimpses," Reader's Digest, April 17,1996
Likewise, with the Bible if we read only what intrigues us then we would
finish the Book the same person we were when we started. The
only way to change is to read the whole Word of God, cover to cover, and
then will our lives be changed.

But we all, with open face beholding as in a glass the glory of the
Lord,
are changed into the same image from glory to glory, even as by the
Spirit of the Lord. - 2 Corinthians 3:18
