Know the Word Study Bible (NKJV)

NKJV Know the Word Study Bible

This concise study Bible is a welcome addition to the ever growing
number of study Bibles on the market. What makes this Bible unique is
the free flowing ease of reading that comes with the format of the
text. Further, the study notes aid in bringing out the original
meaning of the Hebrew and Greek text while also giving the reader
important historical markers for further study. Overall, the compact
nature of the Bible, the excellent study notes and the larger font
size of the actual biblical text make this Bible a great book for any
student of God’s Word.

One of the key features of this text is the red insight portions
inserted below the text as a way of gaining more wisdom about
particular themes in the text. In Jeremiah 23:1-8, the editors
provide A Glimpse of the Messiah that outlines how the prophet viewed
the coming Messiah. One notes states, “Jeremiah, along with Isaiah
and Zechariah, use the word branch to describe the Messiah (Is. 4:2;
Zech. 6:12). The reference here to the Savior as a “branch of
righteousness” recalls God’s promise to David that his “throne shall
be established forever (2 Sam. 7:16) (1059).” The introductions to
each biblical book also provide more wisdom for the situation that
each writer faced and the recipients for whom the book was written.

I am really impressed with this study Bible and know you will too.

Thanks to BookLookBloggers for the copy of this book in exchange for

Journible The 17:18 Series: Acts

Journible The 17:18 Series: Acts The 17:18 Series: The Book of Acts by Joel R. Beeke and Rob Wynalda In Deuteronomy 17:18 Moses foretells of a future king coming to reign over Israel and copying the law himself rather than just acquiring a copy of the law. The role of writing down or scripting the Word of God is of paramount importance for the growth of the believer. With this truth in mind, Joel Beeke and Rob Wynalda have created Journibles. This Journible on the Book of Acts is both a resource to copy the Scriptures yourself and engage in some questions about the text. On the right hand side of the Journible is blank lines with verse indicators for you to copy down the whole Book of Acts. On the left side of the Journible are questions regarding context, theology, and details of the text for you to answer. In other words, this Journible on Acts incorporates a place for you to write your own copy of Acts while engaging with the details of the text in a question and ans

God's Grace for All of Life

The Romance of Grace by Jim McNeely III To be honest, when I received this book in the mail I had visions of what it might be like with a title like, ‘The Romance of Grace.’ The emotional rollercoaster and one-sided perspective on how our emotions fuel our faith was my presumption about the book, but this was the furthest thing from the truth as I started reading. The Romance of Grace by Pastor Jim McNeely III is a careful look at the movements of grace in the way God pursues us with his love and his desire to get us to love him back. McNeely writes, “We are entering a cosmic romance with a passionate lover, and He is interested in our heart’s truest desire. His deepest objective isn’t to make us more moral; it is to get us to love Him back. Virtue is the fruit, not the root” (18). Why is this helpful? For one thing, beginning with God’s initiating grace frees us from starting out on the wrong foot in the way we tell the story and live in God’s world. McNeely hin

Bound Together

Bound Together: How We Are Tied to Others in Good and Bad Choices by Chris Brauns Pastor Chris Brauns takes on a timely and significant subject in his new book entitled Bound Together . He goes on to explain by writing, “Our future and our place in this world aren’t simply the sum of our own individual choices. On varying levels, we are roped together with others. When someone we are roped to is lifted up, we are lifted up with them” (25). Whether it’s the elementary class getting no recess for the actions of one person or a family bearing the consequences of having one of its members lose their driver’s license, we are all bound together and thus our decisions radically affect those around us. Brauns goes on to explain how this principle works itself out in the Biblical story as well, by citing the examples of the flood in Noah’s day and the destruction that ensued at Sodom and Gomorrah. Brauns explains the principle of the rope, that we are bound together by writ
