I know its aimed for Pentecostals | It's a Pentecostal Study Bible. I wouldn't bother. If you're looking for a Study Bible, why not get one that comes from a Reformed perspective?

To be honest I try to avoid most study bibles altogether. While some are good, the commentary style notes do sometimes tend to promote a lack of critical thinking in the reader. Besides that I have enough commentaries so I don't need them right in the text.

The assemblies of God pushes the FB. They even translate it into all kinds of different languages so they can corrupt the church with bad theology.
I had it given to me. It is thoroughly Wesleyan and actually says in one place that God truly desires to save everyone but cannot.

Stay very far away from the Fire Bible if you are looking for something that has any merit in its notes. Well, it does have some merit. It will allow you to see what eisegesis and bad systematic theology look like.

Regarding that Gay, Lesbian, Bi 'bible' above this editorial review say it all: Not sure if its the more sick or sad or disgusting!!
Editorial Reviews
Product Description
The World's first Study Bible for the Gay and Lesbian community. Deep in the shuddering guts of that religion known as Christianity is a rich and troubling history of persecution. Bullying. The singling out of those the church professes to be anti-God, such as gay, lesbian, bi and transgendered people. All built up from the foundation that is God's Word, the Bible. Only it isn't. There is no Scriptural foundation for this persecution, no anti-gay passages in the Bible that the Church professes there are. There have been mistranslations. Check. Persecutions. Check. Bullying. Check. But none of this is set down in the original languages and context of the Bible as God's Way. -----Added 6/25/2009 at 10:23:37 EST----- Quote:

Crossway has articles, especially in the NT by Tom Schreiner, reformed baptist.
Reformation Study Bible is by R.C. Sproul.

What are the differences between the Crossway ESV Study Bible and the Reformation ESV Study Bible? | Hello,
The Reformation Study Bible/Sproul is more doctrine intensive than the ESV Study Bible. Using both as a supplement to Scripture along with Strongs and Greek/Hebrew Interlinears has been helpful in my walk.

I know its aimed for Pentecostals | Get the 1599 Geneva Bible published by Tolle Lege instead. It is IMHO the finest Study Bible ever printed. The notes are to the point, Christ-centred and the notes do not ramble on, diverting you from the Scripture Text.
