Bible Note: Dear Brother Lionheart, Thank you for the encouragement. I've got a lot of notes and electronic copies of stuff. I also tend to read a lot -- if the font is large enough! Plus, there's always the Internet. :-) We are blessed to live in a day and age where thousands upon thousands of volumes of books can be stored in under a square foot of space! Spurgeon's library at the time of his death consisted of 12,000 volumes. Imagine how much that cost him! Yet we live in a day when much more than that is available on inexpensive CDs. What an incredible blessing that a man can preach a sermon, increasing the understanding and stirring the heart of people centuries or even millenia later! We have a rich treasure trove, indeed. In Him, Doc |
