  • Searching The Scriptures by Talbot Fanning - This Bible study aid is rather dated since it was first printed in 1854. This short book is by Talbot Fanning, a true educator in his own right, and President of Franklin College in Tennessee. One of the buildings at David Lipscomb College (now Univ.) where I attended Bible College is named after Fanning. This book came to me in a really, really "rough" .PDF format. Please excuse any errors I overlooked. Believe I caught the critical errors and that 95% of the book is in tact and just as the author intended.
