ما هو هذا الموقع كل شيء؟

It’s about time and quality. We are busier than ever (=less time), but we expect more engaging visuals (=better quality). How can we design أكثر إثارة للاهتمام العروض عندما يكون لدينا وقت أقل? We need to work hard on fewer presentations and then share them with others. This way, we will all grow in our study, teaching, and preaching of the Bible. Of the 48 courses on this site, 31 are designed by me (Dr. Rick Griffith). However, I also collaborate with others to share good courses that will benefit others outside of my specialty in biblical studies. The site is the culmination of my teaching God’s Word for 52 years. Freely download 7136 files in 261 courses, 49,000 pages of course notes and sermon manuscripts in Word and PDF formats, more than 3134 files in English, and hundreds of translations by my students and other translators totaling 54 languages. English has 210,000 slides; the most translated languages include 56,000 Chinese and 141,000 Arabic slides. Every biblical book in the OT Survey and the NT Survey courses now has at least 150 slides with an average of 487 slides per book of the Bible, plus thousands more in many sermons. The site may appear plain, but inside each presentation, you’ll find numerous colorful pictures, diagrams, and charts presented in an attractive format. The Bible courses now total over 103,000 English slides.

Experts say we learn in different ways. Some individuals learn primarily by listening (auditory learners), others through hands-on experience (experiential learners), and still others by seeing (visual learners). As a visual learner, I am in the last group, having grown up in the TV generation that believes “a picture is worth a thousand words.” There are thousands of websites where you can learn the Bible in written articles, but whatever you learn from these, you must paste it into your visual presentation for your benefit and to teach others. So, this site helps fill in the gap. To the best of my knowledge, there is no other website offering thousands of free, ready-made PPT presentations to learn and teach the Bible in multiple languages. If you find others, don’t hesitate to contact me at DrRickGriffith@gmail.com. I want to share resources with these authors and link them to this site. In any case, people learn best by combining hearing, doing, and seeing. Hence, the PPT presentations include text for the teacher to share in the notes section (hearing), small group projects (doing), and attractive pictures on nearly every slide (seeing). You may also download PDFs, as they often show their fonts better.

كيف يمكنني استخدام هذا الموقع؟

In addition to 154,000 PPT slides in English, I have also uploaded over 55,000 pages of Microsoft Word files and PDFs that cover 48 courses. You can study or teach any book of the Bible visually, teach an entire course using PowerPoint and notes, or select a presentation for personal study, teaching, or preaching. Some pastors use the sermon PPT and manuscripts to teach a series. Others teach various courses on apologetics & evangelism, Bible backgrounds, how to study the Bible, Bible geography, leadership, missions, or courses in theology. One key feature of the site is The Bible…Basically, a seminar of nearly 1000 slides. It guides learners through the entire Bible in ten hours, covering it six times. The Bible Exposition link features approximately 100 slides per Bible book, presented in a single message, along with the manuscript, additional handouts, audio, and video. Also, use the search feature to see which presentation may address the topic you need.

Honestly, there is no “catch.” Free downloads might sound too good to be true when others charge a lot of money for presentations, but I assure you, it’s true. God has blessed me as a fully supported missionary professor, so I don’t need to make my living from this site. Please do NOT even write to me to ask permission to use them, as this fills both my inbox and my time. However, you can say “thanks” via email (DrRickGriffith@gmail.com) or give a هدية.

من صمم هذه الملفات؟

I have taught the Bible for 52 years, so this site is the culmination of my life’s ministry. However, over 800 others (mostly grad students) have designed and translated tens of thousands of slides on this site. I am indebted to them and other Bible professors and pastors who allow me to upload their courses. This is a community effort.

Where can I find audio and video?

انظر معرض الكتاب المقدس link and videos on بعد ذلك و NT النصوص. الوصول إلى الخطبة الصوتية على كنيسة مفترق الطرق الدولية و كنيسة عمان العالمية. Some courses (e.g., OT Survey, OT Backgrounds, NT Survey, NT Backgrounds, Preaching) also include audio and/or video content alongside the PPT and presentation notes.

ما هو المنظور اللاهوتي الذي تمثله هذه الملفات؟

I am an evangelical Christian with a high view of Scripture. My Th.M. in Pastoral Ministries and Ph.D. in Bible Exposition were from Dallas Theological Seminary. I agree with the DTS doctrinal statement هنا. The 210,000 English PPT slides and 56,000 pages of notes and sermons on this site reflect over 52 years of Bible teaching, which I trust implicitly as the Word of God written without error. If you are theologically astute, then you will understand what I mean when I describe myself this way: Trinitarian inerrantist, biblical (Young Earth) creationist, upholding biblical authorship (Moses on Pentateuch, Solomon on Ecclesiastes, Daniel and Isaiah as stated, Pauline authorship of 13 letters, etc.), revised dispensationalist (but leaning towards progressive), pretribulational, premillennial, 3- or 4-point Calvinist (total depravity, unconditional election, irresistible grace, perseverance of God to maintain our salvation), 1- or 2-point Arminian (unlimited atonement, recognition that believers do not all sustain their faith until death), free grace (not Lordship) salvation where one must trust Jesus as truly Lord (meaning he is God) but salvation comes by grace through simple trust in Christ as Savior, partial cessationist (non-charismatic), denominationally Baptistic with the pastor as first among equal elders but with the congregation having final authority, immersion, representative Lord’s Supper, divorce and remarriage allowed for adultery & desertion by an unbeliever, autonomy of the local church, complementarian, biblical marriage, blended worship, and expository preacher. Besides these, I can’t think of any other labels at the moment.

هل يمكنني تعديل الملفات التي قمت بتحميلها؟

People have warned me about offering editable PowerPoint and Word files. They say, “You’d better only give people a PDF that can’t be edited. Otherwise, they will change it and misquote you.” I appreciate the warning—I do. However, offering only non-editable files will prevent translators from quickly translating them into their native language. I’d rather risk being misquoted than hinder the Word of God from going forth in other languages. But P.S.: Please don’t misquote me.

كيف يجب أن أستشهد بالملفات التي أقوم بتنزيلها؟

Good scholarship shows integrity, so please be honest about your sources. Each PPT file indicates on the first slide that it comes from this BibleStudyDownloads.org site. Please do not delete these slides so that others can access the source. If you cite this site, use the following format. If you edit a slide, precede the citation with “Adapted from…”

What if the downloaded files do not open?

Older versions of Office software cannot open files created in newer versions. Look at the end of the file name. If it says “.ppt,” I saved the file in PowerPoint 2006 and before (PC)/2007 format. These should be compatible with all versions of PowerPoint. However, a few files have “.pptx” extensions. This means that I saved the file into PowerPoint 2007-present (PC) or 2008-present format for Mac. Only these updated versions of the PowerPoint software can open .pptx files.

However, try this trick if you only have a pre-2006 version of Office. With the file closed and while viewing the file name only on your hard drive, manually delete the “x” from the “.pptx” appended to the end of the file name, then click outside this file name to complete the change. Then try opening it. Your computer will recognize it as an older version of PowerPoint. The same applies to older versions of Word and Excel—simply eliminate the “x” in the file name. This is a more cost-effective and faster alternative to purchasing additional software. However, it also means that you will miss some of the nicer functions of the newer software and will have to clean up the files to make the fonts and animations work.

Some files won’t open because they have become corrupted. Please email me at DrRickGriffith@gmail.com and provide the file name so I can repair it and upload a clean version.

كيف يمكنني الانتقال من اللغة الإنجليزية إلى المواد المترجمة والعودة؟

When viewing a page with downloadable files, click on the language links at the bottom to access the English and other available translations for that course.

ما هي الحروف والأرقام المضحكة في أسماء الملفات؟

The website gives a unique name to every file. Note that we use dashes instead of periods, as the period can confuse some computers. One exception is the period preceding the kind of file. For example, PowerPoint is preceded by the period as “.ppt” (2006 or older) or “.pptx” (2007 or newer). As a sample file name, 02-Exodus-529_eng_os_4998_v31.pptx identifies presentation 02, called Exodus, with 529 slides in English for the Old Testament Survey course, in presentation 4998, version 31, in updated (post-2007) PowerPoint format. All versions four and higher have been reduced in size for easier download. Finally, to avoid confusion, no language abbreviation is the same as any course abbreviation. Each language is abbreviated with the three-letter ISO 693-3 format, while each course has a two-letter format unique to this website.

How do I correlate the course notes with the PowerPoint?

Just look at the number in the upper right-hand corner of each slide. The PPT presentation name is generally the same as the course notes. I say “generally” because the notes for all of the Old Testament books are in the OT Survey notes, and likewise, the NT book notes are within the NT Survey notes. If no number appears on the slide, it supplements the notes, and I haven’t made a handout for it yet.

ماذا لو لم تظهر بعض الصور على الشريحة؟

I have tried to use only JPEG pictures in the presentations, as these are the most common ones that computers can read. However, if you encounter an unreadable TIFF, PNG, or other file format on a PC, you will need to purchase and install software that supports these file formats. Please email me at drrickgriffith@gmail.com to let me know which presentation and slide need editing.

How can I design my own PowerPoint presentations?

Developing PPT presentations is part science and part art. It is a skill, but one that anyone can learn, although those with an artistic flair will likely pick it up more naturally. For a 4-page summary of how to design and use PowerPoint, click PPT_Tips_6th_ed.
