Strong’s Concordance

November 19th, 2007   by Paula

Strong’s Concordance is an exhaustive reference book that is a must for your personal bible study. I have the King James version with the Greek and Hebrew dictionaries and it is just fabulous! I believe that it may also be available for other versions of the bible as well.

Basically, what Mr. Strong did was to identify every single occurrence of a particular word - say “brother” for example - in the Bible, list every chapter and verse with the phrase containing that word and then give the exact hebrew or greek word that was used in the original manuscript. You can then go look up the original hebrew or greek word in the appropriate dictionary to find the original meaning(s). Then it’s up to you to decide whether or not you think the Bible translators got it right, or if there is another possible meaning that you think they should have used. Another nice feature is the phonetic information that’s included throughout - so you can finally figure out how to pronounce Mephibosheth.

In my opinion, the Strong’s Concordance should be the first Bible study tool in your library - after your Bible of course.

God bless!
Paula.

Piercing The Darkness by Frank Peretti

November 17th, 2007   by Paula

Piercing The Darkness, by Frank Peretti, was one of the first fictional christian books that I ever read, and it’s still at the top of my favorites list today.

Whether or not you agree with Mr. Peretti’s version of the goings-on in the spiritual realm - battles between angels and demons, etc. - you’ll love this captivating, action-adventure told from the Christian perspective. The characters are very well-developed, and all too human at times. But of course that’s what makes them so easy to relate to and identify with.

If you’re looking for an awesome adventure tale that doesn’t have any parts that might give your conscience pause, then run out to the library or book store and grab your own copy of Piercing the Darkness. Or check out some more Christian Books by Frank Peretti.
