Bible Question:
This so crazy! I thought I was asking a question that most would find unimportant...I have enjoyed so very much reading all these post on you guys' study habits. I must admit, as I said before, I do write notes in my Bible and I underline key words to a verse(sometimes highlight). I don't want my Bible to look like a coloring book though. If that is what works for some, who am I to judge? I would like to take the question a bit further and ask... What is the most valuable tool you use when you study NOT THAT THE BIBLE IS NOT THE MOST TREASURED AND VALUABLE...I am referring to concordances, dictionaries, commentarries, lexicons, etc. For example, I have an e-sword computer program I use daily it seems. It has ... a ton of resources! And there are some other favorites too, I am just curious what resouces you guys use. Cuddle |

Rom 8:13 For if you live according to the flesh you will die; but if by the Spirit you put to death the deeds of the body, you will live. Rom 8:14 For as many as are led by the Spirit of God, these are sons of God. Rom 8:15 For you did not receive the spirit of bondage again to fear, but you received the Spirit of adoption by whom we cry out, "Abba, Father." Rom 8:16 The Spirit Himself bears |
