A Study Outline Of Revelation. Brother James Booth, a former elder at the Zion congregation, has just published a new workbook-commentary on Revelation. Brother Booth takes the "Historical Background" method of interpretation in this book, and I would highly recommend it to anyone who wants to study the book of Revelation. This workbook is rather large -- it contains 129 pages. If you do not have a laser printer, I would suggest you take the file to a place like FedEx Kinkos and have them print it out for you. Congregations are welcome to reprint this workbook for use in Bible classes and study groups (PDF file size: 2.8MB).

Photographs: Lilies of the Field. The "lilies of the field" in Matthew 6:28 were probably the poppies that are so abundant in Galilee and the rest of the Middle East. The poppies in these photos were found in Turkey.

Photographs: Akdamar Island, Turkey. The Church of the Holy Cross is a ruined Armenian cathedral on Akdamar Island in Lake Van in Eastern Turkey. At one time the cathedral was the seat of the Armenian Orthodox patriarch (1116 to 1895 A.D.). The building is famous for the fascinating bas-relief carvings and friezes of Biblical scenes.

The Genealogy Of Christ. When most people read the Bible, they skip the over sections that deal with the genealogies of Bible characters. However, the Bible places great emphasis upon the ancestry and genealogy of Jesus Christ (Rom. 1:3–4; Heb. 7:14). The genealogy of Christ is often neglected, and yet it was (and is) of vital importance to those concerned about salvation. The study shows how the genealogy of Christ proves the following points: 1) God fulfilled His promise to Abraham, 2) Christ's right to be King on David's throne, 3) Christ's throne is not on this earth, 4) The importance of women and Gentiles, and 5) The end of the Levitical priesthood (PDF file size: 372k).

Success At Bible Class Teaching. Many years ago Sam Blinkley, Jr. and Martin Broadwell wrote an excellent training manual for "Success At Bible Class Teaching." Though the manual is now out of print, brother Broadwell has graciously allowed me to placed a scanned copy of this book on our Web site. Since these pages were scanned as graphic images, the files are rather large. You can download your free copy by following the links below:

Bible Class BookThe Early Years Of Saul Of Tarsus. On the great day of Pentecost, Jews from throughout the Greco-Roman world traveled to Jerusalem to worship God (Acts 2:5-12). While Jews were found in every nation throughout the civilized world, anti-Semitism flourished. Among the nations of antiquity, no nation was ever hated as much as Israel. If Christianity were ever going conquer the world, then someone would have to bridge the gap between Jews and Gentiles. In the providence of God, Saul of Tarsus was selected (Acts 9:15; 26:12-18). This new book focuses on Saul's Jewish roots (Phil. 3:5), his birth in Tarsus of Cilicia (Acts 21:39), and his education "at the feet of Gamaliel" (Acts 22:3). This book contains numerous color photographs from Tarsus of Cilicia in Turkey (PDF file size: 1.3MB).
