All Scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness, that the man of God may be complete, thoroughly equipped for every good work.” (2nd Timothy 3:16-17)

In Umberto Eco’s essay entitled, Role of the Reader, he believes that the text of a book remains unfinished and “open” until it is read; it is the reader, not the writer, who completes the text. The writer’s work is never finished until it meets a voracious, engaged reader.

This means that we can never truly become who we are meant to be until we read and follow what Scripture teaches.
