“For God so loved the world, that He gave His only begotten Son,
that whoever believes in Him shall not perish, but have eternal life.” – John 3:16

7.13 Helpful Resources

We are very blessed to have available to us today the good works and writings of many wonderful men of God who have come before us, true saints of the faith, many of whom also gave their lives for Christ as martyrs. Today, at more than at any time in history, we have a wealth of information available to read and learn from, along with the freedom to read and have access to these materials.

I’ve found the resources/books listed below to be helpful and predominantly free of false teachings. However, please note that I do not completely agree with or endorse all content in these resources. Great discernment must be used when reading, recommending, and using any non-inspired resources written by man. While many other wonderful resources are available, I’ve only included those I can vouch for personally as ones that will not lead you astray.

As mentioned in the Choosing a Bible chapter, be especially wary of all commentaries, notes contained in study bibles, and even the headings in your Bible which have been added by man (the ones inserted in between chapters/sections of the Bible by the publishers) – these are all simply the words of man and not inspired, and they offer a great opportunity for the authors/editors/publishers to inject their own particular bias, doctrines, and false teachings. This warning applies especially to any notes, commentary, and headlines dealing with Bible prophecy and eschatology (end-times matters) that have been published after the late 1800s, for they are infected and corrupted badly with the Dispensational Premillennialism false teaching (with very few exceptions).

Some of the books are out of print and may therefore be difficult to find. However, I recommend that you try to find and read editions that were printed as close to the original author’s first date of publication as possible, as newer revisions offer an opportunity once again for editors and publishers to twist, distort, or even rewrite the original author’s content and introduce their own false doctrines and teachings.

And lastly, before purchasing any book, look to see what other books that same author (and publisher) have produced, as doing so will help you understand if their books can be trusted to be in agreement with the Divine “message of truth” (not the false doctrines of man).

BOOKS BY HOLY SPIRIT PRINTS:

BOOKS:

  • Exposition of the Old and New Testaments, by Matthew Henry, 1706-1710/1721 [Note: this work was completed in 1721 after his death by others who tried to complete his work. There are also many revisions titled Matthew Henry’s Bible Commentary, either complete or concise/abridged. The later versions are marked as “carefully revised and corrected” or “new modern edition,” however, I strongly recommend you find and use his original exposition version (up to the date 1721). What I’ve learned is that when someone says “revised” or “corrected,” it often means that they have altered it to fit their own theology!]

ABOUT EACHDAY.ORG

EachDay.org was created to share the pure gospel message of Jesus Christ, which is the hope of eternal life realized in Christ through His death on the cross and subsequent resurrection to life, as it was “handed down once for all time” in Scripture, as “a voice of one crying in the wilderness” of modern, liberal, corrupt, apostate, lukewarm, dead, pretend “Christianity”: “make straight” the gospel of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ!

THE PROMISE OF HOPE

I have fought the good fight, I have finished the course, I have kept the faith; in the future there is laid up for me the crown of righteousness, which the Lord, the righteous Judge, will award to me on that day; and not only to me, but also to all who have loved His appearing. – 2 Tim. 4:7-8
