Dedicated To The Memory Of Reverdy Lewin Orrell, Jr. (1920 - 2006) |
The other day I received an advertisement from Leadership Ministries Worldwide, the creators of the Preachers Outline and Sermon Bible.
They are currently offering the POSB on CD for $407.94.
Included is:
King James Version
God's Word Bible
The complete New Testament POSB: Matthew - Revelation Commentary & Outlines
The Old Testament POSB Pentateuch: Genesis - Deuteronomy Commentry & Outlines
The Old Testament POSB History: Joshua - Esther Commentary & Outlines
Practical Word Studies in the New Testament
What the Bible Says to the Minister: The Minister's Personal Handbook
Talking Strong's Greek & Hebrew Dictionary
Plus 11 additional reference tools
Keep in mind this is the CD version and not the printed books in 3 ring loose leaf binders. Currently in KRJ format, 3 ring binder version, I own: The complete NT (Matthew-Revalation) and the Pentateuch (Genesis - Deuteronomy).
I do not own either version of their OT history books (Joshua, Judges, Ruth, 1 Samuel, 2 Samuel, 1 Kings, 2 Kings, 1 Chronicles, 2 Chronicles, Ezra, Nehemiah, Esther)
If I picked up the CD I would gain the last dozen books mentioned. What would it cost to purchase the 3 ring loose leaf versions of these books? Through Scripture Truth the cost would be $260.55. Basically it is $28.95 x 9 volumes. Judges & Ruth are in one book and Ezra, Nehemiah, & Esther are in one book. For about $140 more, I can get everything on CD. Of course, from there I'd have to print out the dozen new books and would have to purchase 3 ring binders for them. However, in doing so, I would have the complete NT, plus Genesis - Esther in both 3 ring printed version and on CD. I should note that is cheaper to buy the printed versions from Scripture Truth rather than from the published. Scripture Truth does sell the CD version(s), but I haven't quite figured out the cost structure.
Having everything on the computer is a huge help. I would then continue to only buy the CD version of the book, then print out and bind a copy into a 3 ring loose leaf binder version.
I also see that POSB has Isaiah (2 vols), Jeremiah & Lamentations (2 vols), and Ezekiah (1 vol) finished in the printed form for $43 each. Therefore the cost would be 5 x $43 for the printed versions of these bible books. The cost for the CD version of Isiah is $58. The cost for the Jeremiah & Lamentation is $58. The cost for Ezekial is $29.
I should point out that the offer I just received doesn't include Isaiah, Jeremiah, Lamentations, or Ezekiah. Therefore I would have to purchase the CD version of these books separately which would probably add $145 to the cost.
I'm going to contact POSB and see if they will design a special price for me to get everything. It would be wonderful to have everything in a 3 ring binder version and on CD.
