The Bible is unlike any other book--it contains loving instruction from God. (1 Thessalonians 2:13) If you apply what the Bible teaches, you will benefit greatly. You will increase your love for God and will draw close to him, the Giver of "every good gift and every perfect present." (James 1:17) You will come to know how to approach him in prayer. During times of trouble, you can experience God's help. If you harmonize your life with the standards set out in the Bible, God will give you everlasting life.--Romans 6:2
The Bible contains truths that give enlightenment. Those who gain Bible knowledge are liberated from the misconceptions that dominate the lives of millions. For example, knowing the truth about what happens after we die frees us from fear that the dead can harm us or that our dead relatives and friends are suffering. (Ezekiel 18:4) The Bible's teaching of the resurrection gives comfort to those who have lost loved ones in death. (John 11:25) Knowing the truth about wicked angels alerts us to the dangers of Spiritism and helps us to understand why there is so much trouble on earth.
The godly principles in the Bible show us how to live in a way that brings physical benefits. For example, being "moderate in habits" contributes to good health. (1 Timothy 3:2) By 'cleansing ourselves of every defilement of flesh and spirit,' we avoid damaging our health. (2 Corinthians 7:1) Applying God's counsel found in the Bible also promotes happiness in marriage and self-respect.--1 Corinthians 6:18.
