“Progressive sanctification is a process of growth and change that every person enters after God converts them. This process is a progression from the moment of salvation to the moment of death. There is no time in which you do not need assistance in your walk with God. God’s Word is our first reading resource to help us grow. I hope you will grow in your affection for God’s Words and that He grants you an insatiable desire for His truth daily. The Lord has given us other means of grace in our pursuit of God-glorifying holiness. For example, He has gifted many of His children with the ability to write in clear and theologically precise ways. Since my conversion to Christ, I have benefited from this gift to His church. On this page are a few book recommendations that I trust will serve you in your pursuit of the Lord.” – Rick. Thomas

Concordances
A concordance is a vital component to any library. Find one for whatever version of the Bible you are using, for example: Goodrick, Edward W., John R. Kohlenberger. The NIV Complete Concordance. Grand Rapids, MI: Zondervan, 1981.
Most good Bible programs have this capacity. If you want to use Greek, and you prefer using a book, the best concordance is: Bachmann, H. and W.A. Slaby. Concordance to the Novum Testamentum Graece. New York: Walter De Grutyer, 1987.
If your Greek skills are limited, there are two good tools that reference Greek and Hebrew but provide the actual words from the verse in English:
-
-
- Wigram, George. The Englishman’s Greek Concordance of the New Testament. Peabody, MA: Hendrickson, 1996.
