Study to show thyself approved unto God, a workman that needeth

  There is much significance in that word “study” and only the studious find the narrow way to the Divine approval and acceptance. Study to show thyself approved study the doctrine; study your course of conduct, to keep it in harmony with the doctrine. Study how to promote the peace and prosperity of Zion, and how to shield yourself and others from the missiles of error and from the poison of an evil, worldly spirit. Study to perform the duties of a faithful soldier of the cross the seemingly insignificant, as well as the bravest and noblest deeds.
