Biblical Worldview ---

Center for the Advancement of Paleo-Orthodoxy - This site seeks an integration of knowledge and disciplines within a Biblical worldview. I was impressed with their stand on a literal six-day creation. The online journal, Premise, is top-notch stuff.

World On the Web - The online version of World magazine. Articles by a variety of authors examine our culture from every angle - but all within the Christian worldview. Very informative, and comments on up-to-date news items impacting society.

The Kuyper Foundation - This site is dedicated to the philosophy of Abraham Kuyper: that the ordinances of God would be the guiding principle in the home, the school, and the nation. There is some good online material here that falls under this goal.

The Christian Worldview Web Page - Just what it sounds like! A growing site that takes a multi-disciplinary approach within the context of Scripture. Great resources and links to similar sites!

Chalcedon - Dedicated to the application of Scripture to all of life. True thinker's material covering theology, law, medicine, government, economics, etc. Thoroughly commited to historic orthodoxy and the Reformation. Home of the excellent periodical, Chalcedon. By the way, you do not necessarily have to be a "postmillennial reconstructionist" to apply the Bible to all of life, regardless of what may be said by "dispensationalist" teachers! Although I currently hold amillennial views I eagerly devour every issue of Chalcedon that I can get my hands on. MUST SEE.

Contra Mundum - A Reformed website featuring three online journals - Contra Mundum: A Reformed Cultural Review; Progressive Calvinism; and Antithesis. Each journal offers good articles on various aspects of Calvinism & culture, and contents are online. In addition, the site offers book reviews, online essays, and a book store.

Theology & Culture ---

SCCCS - The late Greg Bahnsen's organization. The online newsletter, Penpoint, offers valuable articles from a Reformed point of view.

Mars Hill Fellowship - Actually, this is a local church website. However, online resources include a "social justice" section, an art section, and the church is dedicated to impacting culture across the board. Also promising is the up-and-coming "midrash" section. Also coming: Pastor Mark Driscoll's sermons in audio format.

Gospel & Culture/Deepsight Trust - Online articles concerning the Gospel & culture. Be sure to check out the New Zealand periodical, New Slant.

Areopagus - This site, "where God is made known," offers an excellent selection of thought-provoking articles. Truly "Christian thinker" material.

Law & Government ---

Christian Legal Society - Many helpful resouces dealing with law from a Christian perspective.

Music, Media & the Arts ---

Reformation of the Arts & Music - Great website with a truly worthy goal. "RAM's purpose is to publish materials that promote a general understanding of Art's meaning and methods, so that both artists and art enthusiasts may develop appreciation and discernment in all areas of the Arts, including music, literature, poetry, performance, architecture, sculpture, craftworks, and the graphic arts."

Chorus - A Christian perspective on humanities and the arts, offering great reviews of software, film, music and other contemporary media affecting us all.

Hollywood Jesus - Now this website is truly unique. Evangelical Covenant Pastor David Bruce examines "pop culture from a spiritual point of view." This is not just another site filled with "Christian" movie reviews, but a deep probing look at trends in popular media from a Christian standpoint. Be sure to check out the links page for more great resources concerning pop culture. Very well designed site. MUST SEE.

Image - A very comprehensive online art journal within the context of a Christian worldview.

Poetry, Prose, & Artistic Sites ---

The Krying Muse - Webmistress "kry" has taken her talent for writing moving poetry and prose and abandoned it to her Lord Jesus Christ. Her deep and probing lines, written with a contemporary "gen-x" flavor, will touch your spirit and make you think. Also visit Kry's other site, An Invitation to the River.

Nikolai Razouvaev's Site - Nikolai is a web-friend, and is a good Reformed brother of Russian descent, now living in Austrailia. He is a graphic designer, and you just have to visit his website to believe it - it is really a beautifully artistic testimony to Nikolai's faith in our Lord. MUST SEE.

Hidden Manna - Billed simply as "faith and story," this journal features great fiction and poetry from believers, as well as editorials and quotes. They accept submissions, and offer their journal online (HTML -or- PDF), by e-mail subscription (free), and/or by snail-mail ($). Good reading!

The Makoto Fujimura Site - Fujimura is a Japanese artist who exercises his creativity within a Christian and intellectual context. This site will tell you about him and his artwork, as well making available several articles by Fujimura concerning art and the Christian worldview. There is also an e-newsletter entitled I.A.M. available on request.

NOTE: The websites linked here are individual or ministry sites which cannot be otherwise categorized. However, in following with my linking policy, I consider all of these to be well-done sites well worth your time.

Babu Ranganathan's Christian Website - Babu is a former Hindu who has converted to Christ and is now a Reformed Baptist! He has some brief, but well-written papers on various topics posted on his site. Babu, like myself, has commited himself to conditional immortality in regards to Gehenna.

Edward Fudge Ministries - The author of The Fire That Consumes, a Biblical reconsideration of the final destiny of the lost. Edward's gracEmail newsletters are excellent bits of what I consider "devotionals for thinkers." Edward's attitude is a shining example of Christian charity and, even if you disagree with him, you will find it impossible to be angry. NOTE: This website was masterfully redesigned by Jeremy Fudge as of October, 1999. Many of Edward's books and articles are online, as well as all 800 gracEmails. In addition, you will also find some good Bible studies and worship resources. MUST SEE.

Ken Collins' Website - Ken is the pastor of the Garfield Memorial Christian Church (Disciples of Christ) in McLean, Virginia. His site contains many good and inspiring articles covering many topics of interest to believers - discipleship, worship, liturgy, and much more. Pastor Collins is not sectarian, but very ecumanical in outlook and ministry.

Dayspring Fellowship - A Reformed church in Austin, Texas pastored by Jackson Boyett. Some real-audio messages are online here, as well as a helpful chart pinpointing the theological positions held at Dayspring. This is one of the growing number of churches embracing the Reformed faith without rejecting the charismata (spiritual gifts).

Ralph Woodrow Evangelistic Association - An excellent ministry that offers excellent materials. You can learn about Woodrow's books here, and also get acquainted with what his ministry is all about. Some of Woodrow's articles are online in PDF format. A fairly new site that is still under construction.

TorchGrab Youth Ministries - Born out of the Littleton, Colorado killings, this ministry promotes revival among the youth of our nation.

Truth for Life - This is the teaching ministry of Alistair Begg, one of my favorite Bible teachers. Begg is the pastor of Parkside Church in suburban Cleveland, Ohio and is a Reformed Bible teacher with "modern flair" (in the tradition of MacArthur and Sproul). Here you can access Begg's messages in real-audio, and read posted articles he has written.

Sovereign Grace Fellowship - This is Pastor Kirkland's church in Indiana. Some online articles are available on their three "distinctives" - the doctrines of grace, amillennialism, and conditional immortality. Hey ... that's what I believe! : )

The Christian Resource Institute - This is the web ministry of the Warr Acres Church of the Nazarene in Oklahoma. Great articles and resources on everything from Biblical interpretation to worship. The material focuses in very specific issues and is well-researched and extremely helpful.

Theophilus' World - The creation of cartoonist Bob West. A regular online comic strip with lessons you won't find in your newspaper funnies! FROM THE SITE: "Travel with Theophilus as he begins to discover that following Jesus sometimes runs afoul of serving his church. Grow with Theophilus as he changes from a 'church member' to one who is truly devoted to Jesus and follows wherever he leads. The familiar situations you see portrayed in these cartoons will cause you to think, study, laugh, cry, hope, and pray."

The Roper Library - This is an online collection of writings ("musings," as the author calls them) by David Roper, who runs Idaho Mountain Ministries along with his wife Carolyn. David's writings, addressing Biblical and practical topics, are informative, and he has a pleasant writing style. He and his wife's ministry is obviously a labor of love in ministry to rural churches (information is available at the site).

The Trinity Foundation - Some good articles are contained in the online Trinity Review by authors like Gordon Clark, John Whitehead, and John Robbins. A firm stand is made for Reformation principles over Roman-Catholicism and ecumenism.

Community Evangelical Fellowship - The church home of both Canon Press and Credenda Agenda magazine. Reformed in theology, with an emphasis on applying the Scriptures to every area of life. Online material includes the sermons of Douglas Wilson (audio), sermon outlines, and material for pastors.

The Lyle File - Sometimes brief writing is chock full of profound wisdom. Lyle Ensminger gives us some "short articles on various topics intended to inform, encourage, and edify." I think that these writings do just that, and look forward to more from Lyle.

Steven Whatley's Home Page - I was just recently reunited with this friend that I grew up with here in Texas. He is exactly where I would have expected to find him: working with computers. Steven is also a commited believer. His personal site contains some links, gospel music and some entertaining material on (from?) his African Grey Parrot (named, appropriately, "Gospel").

The Christian Children's Page - A really good site for the kids. Oh, alright ... I had fun there too : )

Peggie's Place - A very well done website! Peggie has given it a very "homespun" appearance. Several good resources on a variety of topics - poetry, testimonies, articles, many web links, tutorials, devotions, and much more. Well worth a visit.

The Lighter Side - Some good Christian humor and fun, including the "Automatic Theological Construct Server" (just go see for yourself ...).

The Persecuted Church ---

Shatter the Silence - There are more Christians being persecuted and murdered today than there ever has been! Why do we so rarely hear about this? Why are many believers uninformed? This site educates us on this important issue. MUST SEE.

A Cry in the Lion's Den - Another good resource on the present-day martyrdom of Christians. Don't remain uneducated on this topic!

International Christian Concern - Yet another great site concerning the many Christians in our day and age suffering overseas.

Abortion & Euthanasia ---

The Ultimate Pro-Life Resource List - It is exactly what it claims! MUST SEE.

Controversy - The online journal of the International Population & Family Association, an organization which reports on a variety of topics, including abortion, euthanasia, and cloning. Still under heavy construction, but future resources look very promising (there are a few articles and some good links as of 10-15-99).

International Anti-Euthanasia Task Force - A full resource on this controversial topic, featuring articles and up-to-the-minute news relating to euthanasia.

UFL - The University Faculty for Life is described as "A multidisciplinary association of scholars speaking out for human life." The focus is both anti-abortion and anti-euthanasia (better put = pro-life). Includes online articles from their newsletter, Pro Vita, and also information on conference proceedings.

Sexual Issues ---

Christianity & Homosexuality - A large number of materials on various facets of this topic. A Biblical stance, yet balanced and compassionate as well.

Racial Issues ---

To Be Young, Saved and Black - This is the homepage of Ebony E. Thomas, an extremely bright African-American college student with a solid commitment to Christ. This young lady has the kind of mind and heart I pray my own daughter will have when her age. Ebony is also a talented writer of poetry and fiction. Also see Ebony's other site. It features some much-needed commentary concerning Islam.

Science & Ethics ---

The Federation of American Scientists - "FAS was founded ... to address the implications and dangers of the nuclear age ... throughout its history FAS publications and projects have addressed a wide range of science and society issues, including those of population, energy, agriculture, medical care, and ethnic conflict ... FAS combines the scholarly resources of its scientists with a knowledge of practical politics. As a non-profit organization licensed to lobby in the public interest, FAS is uniquely qualified to bring the scientific perspective to the legislative arena through direct lobbying, membership and grassroots work, and expert testimony at Congressional hearings." DISCLAIMER: This link is placed here for informative purposes, and contains many valuable resources. However, this is not a Christian site and would not reflect my opinions on every topic.

The Council for Responsible Genetics - Action alerts, briefing papers, the newsletter GeneWatch, and other resources. Sub-topics include environmental quality, genetic discrimination, food safety, and the possible patenting of actual life forms (scary stuff).

The Gene Letter - An online newsletter that offers all of the latest news in the field of genetics (from a secular scientific perspective). Very informative, and some of it is shocking. Includes a section on ethics in genetics.

War & Violence ---

Toward a Plutonium Free Future - I in no way share the humanistic idea that "we can make it all better." But I stand as a Christian against nuclear weapons. How could I not?

Gender Issues ---

The Council on Biblical Manhood & Womanhood - This site is a must-visit for anyone interested in the ongoing debate concerning the roles of men and women in the Church and in the home. Many resources are available here, including an online journal, articles, bookstore, discussion list, Q&A, and much more. DISCLAIMER: While I am in general agreement with the position represented on this site, I would tend to disagree concerning some of the details (e.g., the precise definition of "prophecy").

The Ecole Initiative - The best for thoroughness and sheer mass of material. Very well-organized and easy to navigate. Many articles, Christian art, a glossary, and time-line. MUST SEE.

EarlyChurch.com - A ministry of Scroll Publishing (David Bercot). FROM THE SITE: "Featuring early Christian documents, early Christian theology, early Christian life and much more... We are dedicated to being an invaluable resource for fellow Christians worldwide." A worthy goal, to be sure!

Nuntius Site for Philosophical & Theological History - Sections for both philosophy and theology, done by historical period, with such aids as pictures and timelines. Still under heavy construction, but looks very promising.

Christian History Online - The web presence of the magazine Christian History, published by Christianity Today. Significant portions of both current and past issues are online. Great articles that represent the most current research.

The Hall of Church History - Phil Johnson has made the major highlights of Church history available to anyone who can point a mouse and click on the many links he provides. The links are categorized (Reformers, Unorthodox, Cults, etc.). Phil also provides a short introduction for each section. The great thing about this brother is that he stays on top of his websites. It is a certainty that this site will only get better as time goes on. MUST SEE.

Museum of Pilgrims - The history of Reformed Christianity by period, in stunning pictures and text. A little rough around the edges, but still well worth the visit.

The Christian Catacombs of Rome - During the Roman persecution of Christians, believers eventually began worshipping Jesus in the underground catacombs where they buried their dead. The webmaster writes: "This site is intended for people who wish to deepen their knowledge of the Christian Catacombs of Rome and of the Church history in its origins. The site provides extensive material, in separate sections, dealing with this fascinating and largely unknown topic."

Historical Documents for Christian Research - A great list of web resources for historical research. Includes apocryphal literature, the Dead Sea Scrolls, the Koran, Gnostic literature, and other important resources. CAUTION: I do not endorse the rest of this site! The webmaster is a hardcore "Campbellite" who also appears to hold an Arian Christology. Furthermore, I do not endorse these documents per se, but simply offer them for research purposes.

Anabaptist Mennonites - The best site on the "radical" arm of the Reformation. Offers both historical and doctrinal material.

Decrees of the Ecumenical Councils - The Councils & Creeds of the early Church are subjects that no Christian should be ignorant about. Yes, this includes even we "evangelicals." This site has good information on this important topic.

NOTE: In addition to those listed below, Chalcedon offers Chalcedon Report on a donation basis by snail-mail and Edward Fudge offers "gracEmail" free of charge by e-mail. Both are excellent publications, and are linked in other sections.

The Master's Seminary Journal - Good online material from John MacArthur's school covering current theological, exegetical, and practical issues. The strength of this journal is its good mix of material. MUST SEE.

Focusing on God:His Character, Purposes, and Ways - Cameron Paine's quarterly ezine. Each study peeks into God's purposes, thoughts, and ways. Without knowing who God is who will fear his judgment on sin and rejoice over what Jesus' substitutionary death accomplished.

Integrity - FROM THE SITE: "Integrity is a quarterly journal dedicated to stimulating personal and public thought, prayer, and discussion about living the Christian life. Its roots are in Restoration Movement Christianity, encompassing Churches of Christ, Churches of Christ/Christian Churches, and the Disciples of Christ. Integrity strives for unity among all Christians." These brethren are grace-oriented, and the articles are very practical and relevant.

The Journal of Biblical Accuracy - Topical and exegetical articles with an emphasis on accurate interpretation of the text.

Christian Computing Magazine - I first heard Steve Hewitt on Hank Hanegraaff's Bible Answer Man broadcast, and was impressed with his careful reasoning concerning the Y2K hype. Upon visiting the website, I see that Hewitt is producing a top-notch publication in Christian Computing Magazine. In addition to the balanced Y2K resources, you will also find great articles to help believers get the most out their PCs and the Internet - from web surfers to webmasters.

Kerux - A journal of Biblical theology. Although a hard-copy subscription is available, back issues are archived online. The material is first-rate, often exegetical in nature, and Reformed in tradition.

Sackcloth & Ashes - Apologetics meets satire, and .... it works. Really. As Christian satire goes, this isn't Credenda Agenda - BUT it is certainly better than The Door! Seriously - this online zine is well-worth a read, and in very good taste compared to - ahem - certain "others."

All Scripture Advocate - A different kind of "read the Bible in a year" plan which offers a bit of commentary correlating both Old and New Testaments. Current and back issues are all online, and a free snail-mail subscription is available (even in quantities for ministry distribution).

The Wild Boar - "A Newsletter for Reformation in the Evangelical Church" published by Immanuel Baptist Church of Fayetteville, Arkansas. Unfortunately, it seems that this site has not been updated with more recent issues in some time. However, the three online are good.

Reformation Rumblings - This is the online e-newsletter of Buff Scott, Jr. urging ecclesiastical reform in the Church, and addressing various topics brought forth by his readers. An e-mail subscription is available, and previous writings are online at the site.

Issues, Etc. - Great practical and theological material in the Reformed tradition from Lutheran Don Matzat's journal. Back issues are archived (with articles by Matzat, John W. Montgomery, Os Guinness, and others), and a free snail-mail subscription is offered. MUST SEE.

Books & Culture - An excellent Christian magazine featuring book reviews and articles offering penetrating analysis of various aspects of Western culture from a Christian perspective. Published by the folks at Christianity Today. It is primarily a snail-mail publication, but significant portions of each issue are posted online for free viewing.

The Word - This is an online monthly Christian magazine for University and College students. Most of the material focuses on apologetics and Christian witness. Some past topics include Jesus & Buddha, the apocryphal gospels, the paranormal, 10 questions for atheists, and so forth. All back issues are archived online, and well worth the read. Several issues include a modern paraphrase of John Bunyan's The Pilgrim's Progress by installment.

CLC Journal of Theology - This is the online version of the theology journal put out by the Church of the Lutheran Confession, a conservative Lutheran denomination. The articles are excellent treatments of various facets of Lutheran theology.

One Nation Under God - A decent e-mail newsletter offering insights into America's heritage.

Bible Explorations - A good newsletter featuring topical Bible studies and articles. Most topics are covered in a series of articles extending over many months, thereby presenting quite a detailed study. I am overjoyed that this ministry is conditionalist (as I am). CAUTION: While the material is good, this ministry does represent what is commonly called ultradispensationalist theology (following the teachings of E.W. Bullinger).

The Free Grace Broadcaster (Mt. Zion Online) - This little Reformed anthology features a different "theme" each issue, reprinting a collection of classic material on that topic. Features material by puritans, Pink, Spurgeon, Luther, Wilkerson, and others. MUST SEE.

Credenda Agenda - Reformed articles reflecting the intense devotion to Scripture alone and also the intellectual tradition (read: mind applied to study) of the Protestant Reformation. Not only informative, but very entertaining as well - these guys employ wit like it's going out of style! Get a subscription and read each issue twice. MUST SEE.

Case Studies - A refreshing e-mail newsletter written by, believe it or not, "Dan Case." Brief practical essays on current events, from the recent news and his own life - all from a Christian perspective.

United Reformed News Service - A news resource covering many Reformed denominations. Previous editions are archived online, and a subscription is available.

The Biblical Examiner - This excellent newsletter is put out by Reformed Baptist Pastor Ovid Need, Jr. and features excellent articles. Although I sometimes disagree with Pastor Need's conclusions, no Christian thinker should be without this! MUST SEE.

Open Forum - This newsletter is exactly what it claims to be: an "open forum." The only constant is that all contributors treat Scripture as authoritative. This is where "orthodoxy," "heterodoxy," and all shades in-between meet and discuss their views. Actually, last I checked no new issues were coming out. BUT some are online and a "back issue packet" can be requested for cost. Interesting reading!

Acts of the Apostles - Biola University student Jason M. Cralley is producing a well-done interactive walk through the book of Acts. Includes a full outline, an interactive map, and promising plans for the future.

Institute of Practical Biblical Education - Includes a series of Bible studies entitled "the Scriptures Opened," and a study of Deuteronomy. Also features some online Christian classics, The Tanach (Masoretic Text), and other valuable resources.

Scripture Studies - An online journal dedicated to the exposition of the text of Scripture. Each issue features ongoing Bible studies from both the Old and New Testaments. The online Index offers verse-by-verse studies, topical studies, and classic studies (by the likes of the Puritans and Spurgeon).

Dean & Laura Van Druff's Homepage - Good stuff here! The "Acts 17:11 Bible Studies" are better than many such studies I've seen out on the web. Whatever you do, don't leave this site without visiting "Reflections & Snippets" - a small collection of ... well, reflections & snippets. All of them cover relevant topics, but the one that is most needed in our day is the plea for sanity in "Christians & Conspiracy Theories." Careful, Dean & Laura - the illuminati might hear you (lol). Also, don't skip the personal information pages. Dean & Laura's testimony, as well as their account of their non-denominational home Bible study, is very encouraging. MUST SEE.

Executable Outlines - Mark A. Copeland's massive resource (758 as of 10/10/99) of Bible study outlines, topical studies, and expository sermons. A search engine is provided for the site as well. NOTE: Copeland is of the Restoration tradition (CofC/Christian), but this does not destroy the immense value of his collection on studies. MUST SEE.

"Help for the Hurting Christian" - David Humpal is the pastor of First Christian Church in Merced, California. He offers several Bible studies here on practical topics - everything from "abiding in Christ" to "heartache" to "worshipping." Also several fine character studies on figures from Scripture, and many verse-by-verse expositions of various passages. Very simple to navigate due to good organization and a full index. This site is all about finding real-life answers in Scripture!

The Text This Week - Extensive liturgical resources (commentary, devotional, articles, worship) for the Church calender, centering around the the Revised Common Lectionary.

The Children's Chapel - A great site to help you teach the Scriptures to your children! Features the complete text of Ethel Barrett's It Didn't Just Happen online. 54 Bible stories, each one with a memory verse, modern application story, and drawings that can be printed out to color. Similar resources are also linked.

Biblenotes - Basic overview studies of every book of the Bible, including a wonderful "key points locater." Great material for those wanting the "big picture." MUST SEE.

Studies from the Scriptures - I disagree with some of this guy's conclusions, but much of it is very good. His Berean mentality is a good example and contagious.

The Online Bible - The top of the heap for Bible study downloads. Among its unique features are John Gill's commentary, and Archbishop Ussher's Annals of the World.

Biblical Hermeneutics - Webmaster Andrew S Kulikovsky has written and posted several good articles here, all relating directly or indirectly to the Scriptures. The main thrust of the site is to provide tools for the individual believer to study and interpret Scripture as an individual. This is accomplished through most of Kulikovsky's articles, as well as an impressive set of categorized links to various Bible study helps. MUST SEE.

Bible Translation - A mega-list of resources covering every conceivable aspect of the task of Bible translation: methodology, style, paraphrase, dynamic & functional equivalence, linguistic issues, and so forth. You can also subscribe to the discussion list. Especially helpful is the extensive glossary of translation terminology. MUST SEE.

TC: A Journal of Biblical Textual Criticism - A comprehensive online journal offering detailed articles on textual criticism from every conceivable angle. There is also a discussion list, a categorized bibliography in progress, and linked resources.

The Scriptures - A very thorough comparison of over 100 English translations, both popular and obscure. Each translation is given a full review, while another section offers comparative studies between these versions. A translation terminology glossary is also available. A great help for those wanting detailed information on the different English translations. MUST SEE.

The Millennia Monitor - A large list of online sources covering all millennial views and other facets of apocalyptic studies within Christendom. Links are found interspersed throughout the text, and are categorized.

Commentary on Revelation - FROM THE SITE: "If you want detailed charts of the end times, then this is not for you. If you want to know the future of the nation of Israel, this is not for you. If you think that the church will not go through the great tribulation ... this is not for you. If you want to know what God is saying to the Church in the last book of the bible, then this is for you." This is Ross A. Taylor's massive commentary on Revelation, and is a breath of fresh air from the dispensational speculations of so many in our time. "This is a 170,000 word, verse by verse commentary on the book of Revelation. This is a serious and conservative study and is suitable for bible students, teachers and pastors. It includes short reviews of most of the modern commentaries on Revelation. It assumes that any interpretation must come from the rest of the bible and that Revelation speaks to every generation of Christians." Also includes many articles that supplement the text of the commentary. MUST SEE.

Hebraic Roots of Christianity - Many helps to understanding the Jewish roots of Christianity - "Israel's geography, culture, language, family life styles, correct history, Jewish idioms (slang terms), poetry, or customs, politics and much more!"

HaY'Did (The Friend) Learning Center - Another website devoted to the Hebrew roots of Christianity. Many articles, links, and other resources to assist the student in studying the Scriptures "through Hebrew eyes."

Stones Cry Out Bible Resources - A very detailed and comprehensive set of links pages to categorized Bible study helps online.

The Septuagint - The Apostles generally quoted this Greek translation of the Old Testament in the NT. Here it is in its entirity online, written in transliterated Greek (Greek characters replaced by English letters) and in easily browsable form. Includes the Apocrypha.

The Study Hall - A collection of searchable resources for Bible study. Includes: Easton's Bible Dictionary, Hitchcock's Dictionary of Bible Names, Matthew Henry Commentary, Nave's Topical Bible, Radio Bible Class Resources (Searchable Archive), The Spurgeon Archive, Torrey's New Topical Textbook, WWW Study Bible, Bibliotheca Sacra (Searchable Archive), Darby's Synopsis of Bible Books, Hodges' Problem Passages in Paul, Innsbruck Database of Theological Literature, The Liddell-Scott Greek Lexicon, Vine's Expository Dictionary of Biblical Words, The Early Church Fathers, and The Christian Classics Ethereal Library.

A Four-Part Harmony of the Gospels - Webmaster David Wallis has produced an excellent online harmony of the Gospels. This makes studying the Gospels as a whole much easier by arranging them chronologically in one flowing, consistent narrative. MUST SEE.

Jesus Christ: The Historical Carpenter - This is a unique project that I find fascinating. The webmaster, Timothy D. Blackburn, has made the study of ancient carpentry an ongoing project, particularly with reference to New Testament times. Very artistic appearance, and informative research material. Continually under construction.

Tabernacle - "On this site you will find an historical, Biblically accurate, representation of the Tabernacle of the Lord among the tribes of Israel at the time of Moses. I used the Holy Scriptures for the basic design of each piece. I researched the meanings of the descriptive words and being an artist and a carpenter, applied those meanings to the results." This is a really cool interactive, multimedia presentation on the tabernacle in the wilderness. MUST SEE.

Bible History Online - A mega-resource site for archaeological, cultural, and historical information related to the Bible. Ancient documents, rabbinical literature, archaeological studies, history (Egypt, Israel, Greece, Rome, etc.), timelines, ancient art - if it has anything to do with Bible history, it's online here!

B-Greek Archives - Are you a Greek scholar? If so, great! For the other 99% of those reading this, join the club. These are the archives for a discussion list called B-Greek, and every Biblical Greek issue under the sun has been discussed, argued over, and batted around by people who know far more Greek than most of us. A really great feature here is the search engine provided.

The Biblical Studies Foundation - This site is one of my top picks! It has all kinds of online resources with high quality content. The best feature is that the hub of this site is a new online translation of the Bible - the New English Translation (NET for short). Most helpful are the highly detailed translator's notes that let you know exactly WHY he translated the passage the way he did. MUST SEE.

The Trinitarian Bible Society - While I am not of the divisive "KJV-only" camp, I nevertheless consider the manuscript tradition underlying the KJV to be more reliable than the modern eclectic translations. The TBS offers sane, intelligent information in defense of the KJV's underlying text, addressing many different translation and historical issues in detail.

David L. Washburn - David is a specialist in Biblical languages, especially Hebrew. There are some really helpful links here for those wanting to do in-depth research into the original languages chosen by God for the Scriptures. There is also one unique feature - David invites you to e-mail him any questions regarding the original languages! I've actually done this in the past, and he DOES answer. In fact, the help he provided me was very thorough.

Jesus of Nazareth in Early Christian Gospels - This site is linked here strictly for reference purposes, being "An annotated bibliography with links to the texts of all extant Gospels written before the end of the second century."

Notes on the Hebrew Bible - Includes detailed introductory material, outlines of every OT book, maps, charts, and bibliography. A great resource for detailed study of the OT. MUST SEE.

Philologos - I list this site here because it has two unique study resources at present - various books by Alfred Edersheim and Lightfoot's A Commentary on the New Testament from the Talmud and Hebraica. There is some other good stuff also, but be discerning - I noted that Hislop's Two Babylons is online here as well (a very unscholarly book - see THINKMAIL #20).

The New Testament Gateway - This is the website of Dr. Mark Goodacre. It is generally a fairly "neutral" site, linking both conservative and modernist materials. Material includes original language resources, textual criticism links, and various perspectives from the "historical Jesus" wars. Read the "higher critics" with caution.

The Bible Commentary Page - Now you can't beat this resource. Choose which book of the Bible you're interested in and get a list of links to commentaries on that book from all over the web!

Find Out For Yourself - One of the best resources on the web for any Christian. Gives basic instruction for those ready to get serious about their Bible study. DISCLAIMER: promotes "dispensationalism" in one section (see my article "Problems With Dispensationalism").

Biblical Languages - A good combination of links on different aspects of the original languages of the Scriptures.

Learning New Testament Greek - A number of helps designed to help you learn NT Greek.

The Blueletter Bible - Absolutely THE BEST on-line study Bible there is (trust me - I've seen them all!). Complete with awesome search features, many different versions, Strong's Concordance and Dictionaries, many commentaries, lexicons, etc. Continually being improved and expanded. MUST SEE.

Navigating the Bible - Study resources from a Hebrew perspective. This is a very fruitful path of research rarely followed by most Bible students.

The Noncanonical Homepage - Many writings did not make the grade when the canon of Scripture was recognized. Unfortunately, many believers today assume that this makes them "evil books" or renders them unimportant. To the contrary, the Fathers knew these writings and cherished many of them as second only to Scripture. The Reformers, while rejecting the Apocryphal books from the canon, nevertheless knew these books well. Here, at no charge, is our opportunity to read them too. NOTE: This server is down more often than most, in my experience. Just don't give up, as the link is a good one.

The Goshen Site - You just have to go there! No brief review can do justice to this site. Invaluable to serious study. Lexicons, concordances, commentaries, dictionaries, etc., etc. MUST SEE.

The Christian Classics Electronic Library - Nearly every on-line Christian "classic" is linked here. An immense resource of materials, including the writings of the Church Fathers. MUST SEE.

Philosophy Links on the Web - A very comprehensive set of links to both general and specific philosophy sites.

Michael Sudduth's Philosophy of Religion - Sudduth writes: "I am a Christian theistic philosopher in the analytical tradition. My primary philosophical interests are epistemology, metaphysics, medieval philosophy, and philosophy of religion - the focus of my website. My current areas of research and writing are natural theology and religious epistemology. I am also interested in philosophical theology and Christian apologetics in the Reformed theological tradition." Several papers by Sudduth are available here, including some dealing with John Calvin and Gordon Clark.

Stephen's Guide to the Logical Fallacies - We encounter them in books, conversation, media, classrooms - everywhere. Chances are, we use them as well! They're called "logical fallacies," and being able to recognize them is often half the battle in a dispute and will help us to think critically. This site is a dictionary of logical fallacies, complete with examples and definitions. MUST SEE.

Dictionary of Logical Fallacies - An alternative to Stephen's Guide (above). This one is more concise, and not near as detailed.

Philosophy News Service - Just what it sounds like - a massive resource giving all of the latest news in philosophy, as well as philosophical takes on current events and TONS of philosophy resources.

The Thomistic Philosophy Page - "Believing that reason can, in principle, lead the mind to God, Aquinas defended reason's legitimacy, especially in the works of Aristotle. The philosophy of Aquinas continues to offer insights into many lingering problems in Metaphysics, the Philosophy of Mind, Philosophy of Religion and Ethics." Includes essays, links, a detailed bibliography, and even some Thomistic humour!

The Internet Encyclopedia of Philosophy - Exactly what it claims to be! Includes a timeline, glossary of terms, and collection of philosophy texts. MUST SEE.

EpistemeLinks.com - A massive philosophy gateway listing "thousands of sorted links to philosophy resources on the internet." MUST SEE.

Society of Christian Philosophers - Much of this site consists of information on the Society (including most newsletter content). However, an archive of the SCP listserv is posted as well, containing tons of great philosophical discussion within a Christian framework.

Theological & Philosophical Glossary - Very good online resource, set up like an encyclopedia with links between related entries. MUST SEE.

NOTE: The websites linked here, though not all necessarily "Christian," are sites that I have found interesting and/or useful. Some of them reflect other interests that I have. Just remember to interpret everything within the context of a Christian worldview as revealed in Scripture.

Scrolls from the Dead Sea - A really nice online "exhibit" that gives a good basic overview of the Dead Sea scrolls and their importance. Lots of pics.

Whirlwind Bible Tour - FROM THE SITE: "A whimsically humorous and brief overview of the Bible." This overview is VERY brief, but often VERY humorous as well. It is in good taste (no sacrilege that I noticed), and - believe it or not - actually assists in gaining the "big picture" view of the entire Bible. This would be a great site for new believers (or lazy ones, but I don't want to encourage THAT!). A very clever presentation that is addicting (if it were a book, you wouldn't be able to put it down). MUST SEE.

Duncan Long's Home Page - This author and artist has some of the best web art I have ever had the pleasure of viewing - "eye candy" x100! Some of his stuff is a little weird (as he admits) for me, but be sure to check out his Christian art, free for use by Christian websites! Much of Duncan's art is very deep and provokes contemplation on the weightier matters of life ... and of death.

The Ultimate Collection of News Links - By far the most comprehensive news resource on the web. Allows you to access news according to geographic and/or topical specifics. Links to over 8,000 sources!

Strange Science - Subtitled "The Rocky Road to Modern Paleontology & Biology." I've included this site here because it demonstrates that "science" - far from infallible - can often be dead wrong. CAUTION: unfortunately, the webmaster is still a confirmed evolutionist.

Hamster Dance - One person's attempt to generate a profitable fad. But it DOES provide a moment of entertainment, and the kids will manage to watch it again and again - driving you nuts of course.

Solar System Simulator - A really cool & fun site! Pick any time & date and this site will generate the planet of your choice! You can even pick from what planet you are "viewing" it from. My daughter & I have fun with this.

Imponderables Home Page - Dave Feldman has written an entire series of books dealing with "imponderables" - that is, questions that drive us nuts. Questions like "when do fish sleep?" or "why do dogs have wet noses?"

Fiona's Shark Mania - Sharks are another side interest of mine - these animals fascinate me. Fiona's page features some great material & artwork, as well as a good set of links.

The Official Howard Finster Webpage - Howard is an 80 year old Christian folk artist from Alabama. He is known the world over, and I personally find his pieces very interesting.

The Art Bell Website - UFOs, Y2K, cryptozoology, crop circles, government conspiracies - you get the idea. Art Bell is a veteran radio talk show host delving into the "weird" stuff of life. Of course some of it is pure nonsense. But the rest? Who knows ....

Claremont Institute Home Page - A conservative politics website. Features the excellent online political journal Precepts. Not "campaign rhetoric," but serious, thought-provoking content.

Virtual Institute of Cryptozoology - For those who do not know what "cryptozoology" is - it is the study of unknown animals. These can be entirely unknown or previously thought extinct creatures. I have a side interest in cryptozoology, especially in the discovery of living creatures previously known only from the fossil record.

Humanities Resources on the Internet - Great source for quality links to sites on different cultures, philosophy, art & media, etc.

Internet History Sourcebooks Project - Massive research pages on every type of history imaginable - by geographical area and/or time period. Designed to assist college students, but great for anyone looking for organized, yet detailed historical information. MUST SEE.

International Listening Association - "ILA was formed in 1979 to promote the study, development, and teaching of effective listening in all settings. Although listening is at the root of communication, it remains an interdisciplinary topic. So, it's no surprise that our members have diverse backgrounds. Consult our directory and you'll find professionals working in education, business, government, medicine, human resources, training and development, the media and the arts."

Borderland Sciences - Talk about your "weird science" - this site features serious (?) research on everything from alchemy to crop circles to hydrogen power. Their journal is partially online, and provides ... um ... some interesting (and sometimes entertaining) reading. Remarkably, these guys ARE smart enough to know that the Y2K scare is way overrated - and trash the hype they do (this is the most informative part of their site).

CSICOP - It seems that every time you turn around popular media is reporting on the latest "haunting," "alien abduction," or "miracle." Of course the vast majority of these have nothing to do with Christianity. While not Christian, the Committee for the Scientific Investigation of Claims of the Paranormal provides an invaluable service to all by reporting on the ACTUAL evidence (if any) of such claims. MUST SEE.

NOTE: What I have attempted in this LINKS section of my website is to present the viewer with THE BEST in each category. Further, I have tried to include good sites that I rarely see linked anywhere.
