Let the youth, then, be taught to give close study to the word of God. Received into the soul, it will prove a mighty barricade against temptation. "Thy word," the psalmist declares, "have I hid in mine heart, that I might not sin against Thee." "By the word of Thy lips I have kept me from the paths of the destroyer." Psalms 119:11; 17:4.

Lad altså de unge lære at gruble over Guds ord. Når sjælen tager imod det, vil det vise sig at være et stærkt værn mod fristelser. Salmisten siger:»Jeg gemmer dit ord i mit hjerte for ikke at synde imod dig."»Ved dine læbers ord vogted jeg mig for voldsmænds veje.« Sl. 119,11; 17,4.
