Make them holy by your truth; teach them your word, which is truth. (John 17:17 NLT)
If the "truth" makes you "holy" and God's "word" is the "truth" then you can't neglect God's "word" and be "holy." Bible reading must become one of the cornerstones of your daily habits so that God can sanctify you through its cleansing effect. Sin will keep you from God's Word or God's Word will keep you from sin! You make the choice by the priority you give Holy Scripture in your life.
