We need to read and study the hymns. The table of contents in our hymnal is a very good chart with all the items of the proper theology. By studying the hymns and learning to speak them, we will gain more knowledge of the word. Through the singing, reading, and speaking of the hymns, we will also gain the experience of the word. Many verses of the Bible may be hard to understand without the hymns.
Many hymns are expositions of certain chapters or verses of the Bible.
If we get into one of these hymns, we will be able to understand the portion of the Word concerning which it was written. We have to use the hymns. We have many publications in life among us, especially the Life-study of the New Testament. The Life-studies are a storehouse of the riches of the Word.
