From their beginning, Anglicans have believed that the living Word of God alone contains all things necessary for salvation. This was the view of the Archbishop of Canterbury, Thomas Cranmer, martyred for his faith in 1556 who once said, “let us night and day muse, meditate and contemplate the Scriptures. Let us ruminate, and (as it were) chew the cud, that we may have the sweet juice, spiritual effect, honey, kernel, taste, comfort, and consolation of them.”
How wonderful to think of the Bible in such terms: sweet juice, honey, taste, and comfort. When we see God's word, the Bible, in these terms, our love for the Bible and our desire to read it increases and the Scriptures become a treasure for us. - Rt. Rev. Julian Dobbs.
