Reference Work featuring Dozens of Books
by Charles H. Spurgeon
June 19, 1834 to January 31, 1892

Forty-Three Books by or about Spurgeon Are Now Included
in this Collection. Spurgeon's "Morning and Evening" Daily
Devotional for the Year (Book 43) is now complete. Users will be
able to easily Copy and Paste a particular Week or Month into
their Word Processor and Print out a weekly or monthly devotional.
There are dozens of books to be added to this collection.

Note: I am not a Calvinist but would like to make Spurgeon's
Works available in this format because some of his works
have a lot of good Educational Merit. Besides, Spurgeon
wrote some of the best Illustrations, Devotionals, and
Meditations that are of use in Sermon preparation, or for
Personal Study. I Hope you get as much benefit and
use from his writings as I have.

This .refi HD Reference Work for e-Sword is a new
Collection of Books by Charles Haddon Spurgeon. This
module requires e-Sword Version 11.0 or greater. In the
e-Sword Reference Library this module appears with the
title of "Works of Charles Spurgeon."

If this HD reference module doesn't show up on your PC
and you're running Version 11.0 or greater of e-Sword
on your PC (not iPad), make sure you download and/or
copy it to your e-sword root subdirectory, for example:
C:\Program Files\e-Sword, or C:\Program Files(x86)\e-Sword.
Make sure you put the file where the Reference Library in
e-Sword can find it.

The really good thing about this HD Module is that it doesn't
work just on the PC, provided you're running the latest
Version of e-Sword. It also runs on the iPad Version of e-Sword.
Far as I know it runs on the iPhone.

There are many Graphics/Pictures inserted throughout this work.

The Bible is filled with many things Christians are to do and
many things we are to avoid. Thus daily Christian living is
both positive as well as negative. Written in a simple style

The lessons are not designed to exhaust the topic
thoroughly, but rather provide a place to begin. May
these lessons be a source of help to Christians today,
and a source of glory to the Master Teacher until He
comes again.

THE PROOF OF REVELATION


From 1944 to 1980, James David Bales was a professor of Bible
and theology at Harding University (formerly Harding College)
in Searcy (White County). Both in public and in print, Bales
earned a national reputation as a fearsome debater of theological
issues and political ideologies, becoming especially well known
for his anti-communism stance.

J. D. Bales was born on November 5, 1915, in Tacoma, Washington,
the fifth of eight children. Soon after his birth, the family moved to
Albany, Georgia. Bales was eleven when a train struck and killed his
parents. Bales went to live with his paternal grandparents in Fitzgerald,
Georgia, until 1930 when he enrolled in the Georgia Military Academy
(now Woodward Academy) in College Park, Georgia, where he joined
the wrestling team. Then, in 1932, he went to Georgia Tech High School,
where he graduated in 1933. Bales next came to Arkansas to attend the
small Church of Christ–associated Harding College, where he established
a wrestling team and joined the debating team, winning the state
championship in 1936. He graduated with a BA in 1937 and received a
master’s degree at George Peabody College in Nashville, Tennessee, in
1938. While pursuing his master’s degree, Bales took a course under
Professor Michael John Demiashkevich, a White Russian refugee who
ignited Bales’s interest in communism. Bales then went west to work
on a doctorate in theological studies at the University of California at
Berkeley.

In July 1940, while working on his doctorate, Bales married Mary Smart;
they had six children. After finishing his PhD in 1944, he returned to
Harding to teach Bible classes, quickly developing a reputation for his
sharp wit and dry, self-effacing humor. When Harding’s president, George
S. Benson, created the National Education Program (NEP) to promote
American values such as religious freedom and the free enterprise system,
Bales became the NEP’s chief researcher and pamphleteer, writing
numerous articles warning the nation about the dangers of communism.
The most significant danger, in Bales’s view, was the communist aim of
destroying religious faith. Bales felt that communists, whom he viewed
as the world’s largest atheistic power, were at their insidious best in their
efforts to undermine belief in God. Constantly reading national periodicals,
reviews, books, and articles in order to absorb current political and
philosophical trends, he was ready to fire off daily letters and articles to
newspapers and magazines defending, answering, and challenging any
such attacks.

Bales wrote and published more than seventy books and many more
articles for religious periodicals, among them: Atheism’s Faith and
Fruits(1951), Communism, Its Faith and Fallacies, an Exposition and
Criticism(1962), Understanding Communism: A Study Manual (1962),
Two Worlds—Christianity and Communism (1965), Americanism Under
Fire (1965), and Evolution and the Scientific Method (1976). He also
wrote numerous books on theological issues, cults, and controversies
within the Churches of Christ. While Bales’s style was at times
unabashedly confrontational, bold, aggressive, and often tinged with
biting sarcasm when he felt he had the facts on his side, he was also
committed to fair play and giving his opponent an honest hearing.

Bales was thrifty and sharp with his money. In 1958, the government
of Taiwan invited him to speak, providing him with an open, first-class
plane ticket. Bales decided he could use this ticket to go almost
anywhere and scheduled some ninety speaking engagements in the
Philippines, Korea, Japan, India, and at the World’s Fair in Brussels,
Belgium. Unfortunately, during this world tour he contracted an
amoebic infection which affected his health for years.

Bales, who could not pass up a bargain, often told how not long after
his marriage, he happened into a Toronto, Canada, bookstore just to
browse and ended up buying out the store’s entire stock of 6,500
books when the owner offered them to him at five cents a copy.
Bales shipped the books to Searcy, where he sold some and kept
some. At one time, Bales owned more than 10,000 volumes.

Even though he was often criticized for doing so, Bales participated
in some forty public debates with leaders representing atheism,
communism, Buddhism, evolution, and numerous Christian
denominations and sects. His most famous debate was in Little Rock
(Pulaski County) in 1966 against eminent astronomer Carl Sagan with
Ernan McMullin, R. C. Lewontin, and Thomas K. Shotwell. Jack Wood
Sears, professor of biology and genetics at Harding, was Bales’s debate
partner.

Throughout his tenure at Harding, Bales was famous for his wit, humor,
and numerous stories about his adventures. He once admitted to giving
a list of six items for a listing answer in class and then asking for seven
answers on the test. When students were irate over the test, he said he
would not count that extra answer but had enjoyed reading the fascinating
responses students had offered under pressure to fill the extra space. On
another occasion, he gave a 100-question true/false test with every answer
being false. “Just wanted to test your resolve,” he told the groaning class
after he returned their tests.

After his retirement in the spring of 1981, Bales continued to write, lecture,
and preach. He was a member of the White County Civil War Roundtable,
to which he often brought antique guns and other relics. At the end of his life,
he said he felt as if he “had fought the good fight and had defended the faith.”
Bales died on August 16, 1995, and his ashes rest in the Oak Grove Cemetery
in Searcy, next to his wife, Mary.
