(Bibles that are NOT acceptable: Today’s New International Version, New World Translation (Jehovah’s Witness Version), New American Bible, New Revised Standard Version)

BIBLE SOFTWARE:

Ages (Ultimate Christian Library) - DVD, CD Rom: This is an excellent, broad based software that holds a very complete library of the sermons, books and commentaries from Jonathan Edwards, Charles Spurgeon, A.W. Pink, John Wesley, John Bunyan, Martin Luther, John Owen, Augustine and many more.

Logos Library (preferably Scholars Library Series 10): This software is more diverse in the types of resources it has. So even though it doesn’t have as many of Spurgeon and Edward’s and Luther’s sermons and writings, etc., it does have all types and kinds of other writings and reference materials, including concordances and Greek/Hebrew Lexicons, and topical studies and so on.

AMG Complete Word Studies: This is one of the best software available for Word Studies in the original language.
