Every Christian should have an in-built desire to read the word of God. After all, it is the food of the believer’s new life: just as we have to eat physically to maintain our bodies so we must set aside time regularly to take in the spiritual nourishment of the word of God. Peter's instruction is clear enough: "As newborn babes, desire the sincere milk of the word, that ye may grow thereby" (1 Peter 2.2). In this book, the author sets out the basic essentials. The twelve letters contained in Getting to Grips with God’s Word were originally printed in the Believer's Magazine. They are now made available in the present format in the hope that they will encourage young Christians to invest their time in the rewarding investigation of God's inspired word.
