It should also be said that it doesn't do any good for someone to read the Bible and not practice or believe what it's in it.

@Desire Of All Nations Paul in Romans indeed speaks of 'the obedience of faith' (16.26) and 'obedience to the faith' (1.5)...

John Bunyan's Shepherd Boy in the Plain of Obedience comes to mind: :)

"He that is down need fear no fall,
He that is low no pride;
He that is humble ever shall
Have God to be his Guide."

(The Pilgrim's Progress.)
