Greek language characters
Many of the articles listed here quote from the original Greek text of the New Testament.  No knowledge of Greek is required to understand the articles.   Nevertheless, I hope that the Greek characters display correctly on your computer.  For this reason, the articles have been saved in .pdf format.

If the words in Greek are not displayed in the correct Greek characters, it may help to download to your computer the TekniaGreek font.  This totally-free font was used for a lot of the Greek in these articles.  It can be downloaded from this website here.  (You are advised not to download versions from elsewhere, as some of them are different from the version used to create these documents, and may therefore not reproduce all characters correctly.)

Just download it and copy it to C:\WINDOWS\Fonts

On some other occasions, the font GREEK.TTF is used.  This appears to be a standard font that is included in Windows.



Upgrades
I am constantly seeking to improve this website, writing new studies and improving those that are already here.
You could therefore find it interesting to re-visit articles that you may have seen in the past, since there may be improvements such as new information, additional sections or improvements in the formatting.
