  • CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.
  • We hope the site problems here are now solved, however, if you still have any issues, please start a ticket in Contact Us

I think ESV study bibles are all from the same folks, Crossway. That's who mine is by and out of the hundreds of styles I've seen, they're always Crossway.

Either way, it's an excellent resource. You can buy the hardback for maybe $35-45 on Amazon.

... OK so I took the liberty of finding it on Amazon.com and it's super cheap. $28.78.

True, they are Crossway. Each publisher has their own versions for copyright reasons. I do like the ESV.

I don't believe in study Bible, so I recommend not using one. Use a King James Bible. That's all you need, and the Holy Ghost will teach you all things.

No harm in what you do. There are some really bad study bibles. I wouldn't exactly call the ESV Study Bible a bad one.

I have a bunch of study stuff including a little theological libray in real life and on my bible study program ( I use e-sword) and I have been reading as of late a bunch of Dr Henry A. Ironside's work . I kind like how I'm doing it right now with my NKJV I sorta have made it my own study bible with my marks in it and all , but I would like to have like a commentary on hand so that why I'm looking for a study bible. What do you guys think of the Scofield study bible( particularly the one for NKJV aswell) ?
