The Bible allows us to gradually become cleansed of our sin, because of indwelling grace and because it is the only book that gives God’s view of things. Day be day, if we allow the word to speak to us, we allow the bible to help us see ourselves as God sees us , not as our false selves see us. It is a hard book to read because it is the only honest book i know of. Great saints have always been great readers of the Word of God.
