Reference Library
By David Cox

I am a pastor, and as I am ALWAYS studying the Bible, I know the advantage of a good reference library. So as a Pastor, I am also always trying to find good books to add to my collections. I stumbled across firstlovepublications.org.

Summary of Works offered in the Reference Library

Let me just list them. (These books appear to be in pdf, epub, and kindle formats.)

Downing – A Catechism on Bible Doctrine

Jones – Gleaning in Proverbs

Murrell – Seven Deadly Sins

Hellar – The NT Missionary: A Biblical Study of Missions

Ryle – Simplicity in Preaching

Debruyn – Why I am not a purpose-Driven Pastor

Nelson – Presuppositionalism: Biblical Approach to Apologetics

Dalcour – A definite look at One Theology in the lightr of biblical Trinitarianism

Again all of these can be downloaded via firstlovepublications.org

I know Murrell is of a Reformed position, and a good teacher. Some of these books look really good, and I would like to read through them. I am against Rick Warren, and the one by Debruyn, “Why I am not a purpose driven pastor” looks especially good. I think Warren’s take on “church” as a whole is satanic. Since when do we shunt the authority of God in Scripture and take man’s opinion on what church should be? Sick. I hope this work fulfills what I hope it is.

Buy me a Cup of Coffee! To make an old Christian work into a PDF, a module for theWord, MySword, or eSword takes time. These works are scans from old books, and as such, I have to go through the text some dozen times looking for places where the OCR is incorrect, blurred, or just skipped something.

Text Editing.Then there are the old Bible references like John iii. 16. Many young Christians and even preachers do not know the Latin system for books of the Bible. I convert Roman numerals in these books to Arabic (iii. to 3).

I have had to invest days and days in writing macros to read a long text, and make substitutions (for the above, search for "iii" and replace with "3:"). Unfortunately, with Psalms you have to start with 150 in Roman numerals (CL) and work your way backwards. But using macros, it is almost instantaneous the next time I need this. Work smarter, not harder. All this takes time and patience, (and being smart enough to do it in a macro language) (as well as a lot of coffee) and then making the text into theWord or eSword, mySword or a PDF.

Please donate something to me once every 6 months or even once a year, even if it is only $5, so that I can pay my bills for hosting, and also keep things moving along. It costs me about $10 per month to keep a website on the Internet. My websites also contains ads which have links to my sermons, tracts, books, that I have written. These keep my works before visitors, even if they are not visiting the specific website where I have them stored. It is my own "web" internally of my own sites with links to good Christian literature. May God bless for your prayers and donations.

Take a look at a few of our tracts:
salv76 suffering should seek his Savior - explains how we should react to problems and sufferings, we should seek the Savior.
pc15 How to fight against depression - we treat the problem of depression. Depression is not a physical disease, it is an emotional and spiritual disease that "bleeds over" and causes aggravation and physical consequences if not attended to at the spiritual-social-emotional level.
ch15 Congregating because we Love - a tract about why we attend church. Our relationship with our brethren in Christ is highly integrated with our salvation and our sanctification.
SSTeen1-01 Existence of God - Does God really exist? This is not a tract but a teen Sunday School Class that I wrote answering this important question.
fam48 Men are God's Agents - Men are God’s Agents to accomplish His Will, looks at man as God wants him to be. Manhood and the husband-wife relationship.
