“To overcome long-standing prejudices against Bible study we need to bear in mind that its goal is not to obtain new information and expand our ‘brain’ knowledge’ but to understand Christ spiritually. Without studying and understanding the Scriptures we cannot know Christ our Savior and Intercessor or exercise faith in Him, become disciples, and be saved. Consequently, the goal of pastoral ministry should be to help believers and non- believers to understand Christ through Bible study” (Fernando Canale, Secular Adventism, 115)
