Online Free Books, Tracts, and Sermons - As a missionary and pastor, I write tracts and books in Spanish. I have written over 70 books and 80 tracts in Spanish. All are free, complete for reading online, printing in booklet form, and even for distribution as long as no charge is made for them. We are having 10,000 visits to my Spanish Book Page. See our Spanish Book Page, our Spanish Tract Page, or our English Tract page (which I am slowly translating everything into English).

Why don't you charge for your books and this library? - I started a church bookstore at one point in my ministry, and I had a lot of contact with bookstores. I found that most all literature ministries are motivated by riches and financial gain. They sell books with poor doctrine, or outright heresy for financial gain. This is not a valid ministry before the Lord then. Most Christian bookstores today should carry the name "Charismatic Bookstores" because the majority of their literature is heresy and useless for the Pentecostal Movement which has no discernment. I feel that it is incorrect to charge for the things that we provide in the ministry. "freely ye have received, freely give" (Mat 10:8) I see no room for profiteers in the ministry. Our literature (this website is considered part of that ministry) is fundamental and sound in doctrine, and is completely free. Everything I write is downloadable, and for those in our church or who can come to pick their literature, we print it at our cost and give it away. So your gifts to our ministry is how all of this operates. Please donate something! Even a few dollars help greatly if a lot of people do it.

Editor's Note: I, David Cox, have downloaded all of these dictionaries, and am in the process of converting them to regular text files (PDF,e-Sword TOP, PDB, LIT, etc). As I have time and as my expenses permit, I will convert these with the help of my secretary. Please keep checking back to see when they are done. Donating to our ministry would help speed up the process greatly! :)Arrowsmith, Arrow - A geographical dictionary of the Holy Scriptures : including also notices of the chief places and people mentioned in the Apocrypha (1855)

Who is David Cox? - People ask who are you? I was raised in a Christian family in Charleston, SC. My home church was Ferndale Baptist Church, which for most of the time I attended there, our pastor was Dr. Bob Besancon. We are independent Fundamental separated Baptists. I attended Bob Jones University in Greenville, SC, and I graduated in 1979 with a B.A. in Christian Missions, Greek Minor, and I have a M.A: in Bible and a M.S. in Educational Administration and Supervision, both from BJU. I was working towards a doctorate, but the Lord led me to go on to the mission field instead of completely that doctoral work. I have around 90 hours of Graduate classes under my belt though. Our current home church is Orlando Bible Church in Orlando FL.
