HELP The word that many literally "cry out" when a problem, difficulty, or just a question arises. It's at that time or even that moment, that a Christian wants an answer. "I don't know where to look in the Bible...I need help now." When problems, difficulties, decisions or goals are before you, allow the Creative Force of God to work with you. I have released this book based on this theme. I realize that many Christians desire to know more about the Bible but have little time to study. The scriptures and studies included in this notebook were compiled over many years of ministry. NOTE that many of the Scriptures listed for a topic are NOT a research tool for "in context" interpretation. My desire in this work is to offer the attitude and character of God towards the specific topic. When it is difficult falling to sleep: ...for He gives His beloved sleep. ...Yes, you will lie down and your sleep will be sweet. Need real joy in your trials of life? "...the joy of the Lord is your strength." "You must not be dejected and sad " "...and rejoiced greatly, having believed in God." Over 85 topics to quickly locate Scriptures of life for encouragement ...when you need them

A single reference book that contains most of the names, locations, and Bible book data needed to assist in Old Testament study. It is a collection of materials gathered during the author's study of the Bible, over many years, which makes it unique. Included is a thorough work on the needed details such as pronunciation of persons. The section of Theology Terminology is vital for the Bible student's understanding of Scriptural doctrine. Chapter 1 includes a valuable overview and keys to each of the thirty-nine books in the Old Testament of the Bible. Many of the Keys may serve as a Bible study (e. g. The names of God in a particular Bible Book are a great way to learn about God and His fullness). Key persons, verses, theme, date of events and names of God are included for each of the thirty-nine Old Testament books. Other chapters in this work include separate collections/glossaries on ( Chapter 2) People, Names and Nations of the Bible; (Chapter 3) Places in the Bible or in Bible History; (Chapter 4) Bible Words and Phrases; (Chapter 5) Theology Terminology; (Chapter 6) Detail expositions on over 125 words and phrases (("Land of Ancient Israel"; "Mesopotamia"; "Patriarchs"; "Philistines"; "Plagues of Egypt"; "Satan").

This course is about a war. This war broke out following Adam and Eve's spiritual fall. They made the wrong choice. Disobedience came, and the light of God's glory went out The light of His Glory was legally snuffed out by the darkness of sin, which encircled Adam, Eve, and the whole garden where they had lived in peace. This war was not on an open battlefield. Literally, inside God's creation, the battles started and continue to this day, on an inside-the-head battlefield. So it started and continues; a spiritual battle that ALWAYS starts in the mind-doubt, questions, uncertainty...resulting in fear (which is Satan's counterfeit of God's force of faith). The goal during this course is to become grounded in what God's Word teaches about this war, and to walk in victory through every battle encountered. Be STRONG IN THE LORD he says to the believer. We are commanded to be strong because every believer is involved in intense spiritual warfare, every day, in every area of life. We are prepared to do battle against all enemies of the kingdom of God. Every piece of spiritual armor will be discussed and proven vital for the spiritual fight ahead. Chapters on The Combatants of the War, Where Is the War Fought, and each of seven pieces of God's armor comprise a twelve week study course for individual and group study. Two chapters will consider The Enemy's Weapons used by him to win in spiritual battle. Questions to lead in discussion are included for guidance. The course is appropriate for small group leaders and participants, teachers and pastors. I also would suggest the studies be utilized in colleges and universities as a reference to the topic being considered.

An extensive Old Testament study and reference source for both the scholar and student. The volume includes Key Words, Study Notes, Expanded Help Papers, Depth of Bible Words and Places, and Detailed Reference Tables. The author includes chapters on "The Making of the Old Testament," "Why Study the Bible," and "Structure of the Old Testament" along with the Key Locations, Key People, Key Events, and a brief outline of each of the books in the Hebrew and Protestant Bible. The author includes his chronology of each book's written date, period covered, and events in various locations around the world. He considers not only "accepted" understanding of Scripture, but also reviews controversial topics such as "The Gap" theory and the JEDP theory of authorship. However the author's chronological travel through the thirty-nine books is with a consistently conservative value. Divided into fourteen sections, including "The Beginning of History," "The Patriarchs", "Moses," "The Promised Land," "The Kingdom Begins," "Solomon," "Hebrew Poetry and Psalms," "Wisdom," "The Northern Kingdom, Israel," "The Southern Kingdom, Judah," "Golden Age of Prophecy," "Judah Falls," and "Captivity and Restoration." The work will serve as a small library of information in a single volume which you will turn to over and over.
