The one thing that cults, cult leaders, and cultic doctrine will always do is lessen and twist the Person of Jesus Christ, His Deity, His work, His mission, and His Personage. Even the groups and leaders that place the Bible first, or don't use other books, they too somehow seem to manage to get things wrong. If one takes the Bible as a whole, interpreting Scripture in context and using the basic skills of proper interpretation, one will clearly find the clear teachings of Scripture. Not doing so always ends in mischief.
The following article, originally published in 1824, speaks volumes to the Christian and non-Christian alike. More than ever in our nation today, and for that matter in all of Christendom, we need to take to heart the importance of the Bible, first to read, then to love it and worship the God who inspired it and gave it to mankind.
