#19388 How do I stop Pocket e-Sword from always starting at John 3:16

You did very well  to find that information!!   Not too many people dig that deep to find out what Oblias really means.  In modern translation, it would be closer to "the steady one'"  or " the one with a solid base who watches over others",  near as I can find out.   I am retired from the Armed Forces, and for years I did my best to do what I could to 'watch over the citizens of our Nation' and to build my integrity and honor as much as God would give me the strength to.  Our Lord has saved my life so many times that I could not tell you the exact number, but I know in my heart that he has shielded me many times when I was 'in a jam' !!

 

So, I adopted the call sign 'Oblias' many years ago, but people rarely ask me what it means, even though it's quite a rare name.  

 

Just a tid-bit of information there...   LOL

 

You take care of yourself, and as we used to say, keep your boots on the ground, and watch your 6 .

#19327 How do I stop Pocket e-Sword from always starting at John 3:16

Hello all, first time poster.   I downloaded the PDF guide, but was unable to find an answer to my problem.   I am using e-Sword Mobile on a Dell Axim X50v Pocket PC.   The program is a real blessing, however it becomes a bother when it always starts up, and displays John 3:16, no matter where I was reading last.   Is there a setting or something I'm missing, in order to have this program open at the last place in the Bible where I stopped reading?

 

I've been having to make bookmarks when I stop reading, so that when I start the program again, and it goes to John 3:16, I then have to select my last bookmark, and that's how I get back to where I left off.

 

Might someone please tell me how to have this fantastic program open where I stopped at?

 

Thank you for your time, and a wonderful program that brings many blessings each day for me!!!
