Rewarding in what way? How do you personally benefit from reading the Bible, than someone who doesn't?

Yes it is unfair to blame the Bible for everything, and I don't think anyone has. Saying that though, you have to admit that a lot of bad things have happened in the name of Jesus Christ and Christianity.
What good stuff? I'm not trying to be an arse about this, I'm just wanting a better understanding of what good can possibly come from reading The Bible. How does reading and believing it, make you or any Christian a better person than someone who doesn't but has strong moral and ethical code?
