A Lifetime Pursuit . . .
"President Ezra Taft Benson emphasized the importance of spiritual knowledge, saying:
'We should make daily study of the scriptures a lifetime pursuit. … The most important [thing] you can do … is to immerse yourselves in the scriptures. Search them diligently. … Learn the doctrine. Master the principles. …
'You must … see that … searching the scriptures is not a burden laid upon [us] by the Lord, but a marvelous blessing and opportunity' (Ezra Taft Benson, “Godly Characteristics of the Master,” Ensign, Nov 1986, 45).
President Spencer W. Kimball commented:
'Spiritual learning takes precedence. The secular without the foundation of the spiritual is … like the foam upon the milk, the fleeting shadow. … One need not choose between the two … for there is opportunity to get both simultaneously' (The Teachings of Spencer W. Kimball, ed. Edward L. Kimball, Salt Lake City: Bookcraft, 1982, p. 390)."
