"Great reservoirs of spiritual water, called scriptures, have been provided
in this day and have been safeguarded that all might partake and be spiritually
fed, and that they thirst not. That these scriptures have been considered of
great importance, is indicated by the words of the Savior, 'Search the
scriptures; for in them ye think ye have eternal life: and they are they which
testify of me' (John 5:39); and the experience of the Nephites being sent back
to procure the brass plates which contained the scriptures so vital to the
welfare of the people. The use of those scriptures was suggested in the
statement of Nephi when he said, '...for I did liken all scriptures unto us,
that it might be for our profit and learning.' (1 Nephi 19:23)" —

"Nephi said, 'I did liken all scriptures unto us, that it might be for our
profit and learning.' (1 Nephi
19:23.) He was advising us to weave the fiber of scriptural wisdom into the
fabric of our own being." — Russell

"So important in the Father's plan of salvation are the scriptures that
incidents are recorded wherein God commanded the taking of life to obtain
possession of precious writings without which His children would stumble and be
blinded by the darkness of the world, but with which they could be likened to
the people of the scriptures for their profit and learning." — Harold B. Lee, "The Teachings of Harold
B. Lee," edited by Clyde J. Williams [Salt Lake City: Bookcraft, 1996], p.
