These see the works of the LORD, and his wonders in the deep. For he commandeth, and raiseth the stormy wind, which lifteth up the waves thereof. They mount up to the heaven, they go down again to the depths: their soul is melted because of trouble. They reel to and fro, and stagger like a drunken man, and are at their wits' end. Then they cry unto the LORD in their trouble, and he bringeth them out of their distresses. He maketh the storm a calm, so that the waves thereof are still. Then are they glad because they be quiet; so he bringeth them unto their desired haven. Oh that men would praise the LORD for his goodness and for his wonderful works to the children of men!" A lady came to me afterwards and said I made it up to suit the occasion. HELPFUL QUESTIONS. I have seen questions that will help one to get good out of every verse and passage of Scripture, They may be used in family worship, or in studying the Sabbath School lesson, or for prayer meeting, or in private reading. It would be a good thing if questions like these were pasted in the front of every Bible: 1. What persons have I read about, and what have I learned about them? 2. What places have I read about, and what have I read about them? If the place is not mentioned, can I find out where it is? Do I know its position on the map? 3. Does the passage refer to any particular time in the history of the children of Israel, or of some leading character? 4. Can I tell from memory what I have just been reading? 5. Are there any parallel passages or texts that throw light on this passage? 6. Have I read anything about God the Father? or about Jesus Christ? or about the Holy Spirit? 7. What have I read about myself? about man's sinful nature? about the spiritual new nature? 8. Is there any duty for me to observe? any example to follow? any promise to lay hold of? any exhortation for my guidance? any prayer that may echo? 9. How is this Scripture profitable for doctrine? for reproof? for correction? for instruction in righteousness? 10. Does it contain the gospel in type or in evidence? 11. What is the key verse of the chapter or passage? Can I repeat it from memory? CHAPTER VIII. How to Study the Bible--Feeding one's self--The Best Law--Three Books Every Christian Should Possess--The Bible in the Sabbath School. SOMEONE has said that there are four things necessary in studying the Bible: Admit, submit, commit and transmit. First, admit its truth; second, submit to its teachings; third, commit it to memory; and fourth, transmit it. If the Christian life is a good thing for you, pass it on to some one else. Now I want to tell you how I study the Bible. Every man cannot fight in Saul's armor; and perhaps you cannot follow my methods. Still I may be able to throw out some suggestions that will help you. Spurgeon used to prepare his sermon for Sunday morning on Saturday night. If I tried that, I would fail. FEED YOURSELF.
