WHAT THINK YE OF THE BIBLE?

BY


WILLIAM SCHOELER

This book, originally published in the 1920s (no date given in the hardcopy), is a great apologetical overview of the Bible. You can see from the subjects covered that while it might not be a big book (the hardcopy was 125 pages), it covers a lot of material.

William Schoeler (a Lutheran) wrote many books in his lifetime, though this may be his best one.

Notes:
This module was made by (sniff) destroying the book, scanning the brittle original, running OCR software on it, checking it for errors, reformatting the whole thing, and using ToolTipTool NT for conversion to e-Sword. All that to say, this isn't a copy/paste job, but hours of dedicated work to bring you a decent (and free) finished product.
