Bible

​

     The King James Bible [KJV] was first published 400 years ago and is the greatest literary work in the English language; however, you will find a newer translation such as the New King James Version [NKJV], the New International Version [NIV] or the Holman Bible written in language easier to read. Any of these study Bibles would be an excellent choice.

 

              1)  The Apologetics Study Bible by Holman gives a very educational

 introduction to each book of the Bible; over 100 articles written by well 

 qualified educators on questions we all want accurate answers to, as well as a

 considerable list of  twisted scriptures with explanations.  There are several

 excellent charts - “Comparison of World Religions” and “Comparisons of

 New Religious Movements” are two of them.

 

      2) The New International Study Bible [NIV] has commentary helpful on all the scriptures.

 

          3)  The Thompson Chain-Reference Bible [NIV] - A complete numerical system of chain references, analyses of books, outline studies of characters and unique charts, with pictorial maps and archaeological discoveries.

 

          4)  The New Defender’s Study Bible by Dr. Henry M. Morris [KJV] - our generation’s foremost spokesman for biblical creationism in matters related to geology, earth history, astronomy, biology, and other sciences.  This is a new edition of the only study bible stressing the defense of the biblical Christian faith from the perspective of literal creationism and absolute biblical authority. It has been enlarged from 1,620 pages to 2,202 pages. With larger, easier-to-read type and 50% more commentary, one of the most helpful study bibles available.
