That's great Robert! Did you see all the possibilities there? You can even put the Sabbath School quarterly in it, if that's what you want to do.
 
But the tool that I have found to be the most useful in my study, can be downloaded at the E-Sword website. It's called TSK. "Treasury of Scripture Knowledge". It is the greatest cross reference program I have ever seen. I don't know how I ever studied without it.
 
It's on this page right here. Third from the bottom:

Look to your right, under commentaries, and you'll see the TSK tab. When you click it and turn it on, then any text you click on in e-sword will pop up over there. It will show all the cross references for that text, and the words that it's cross referencing. Then you can click on any of those texts to see them in their context, or you can just hover over it to see only the text. You can also turn off the link button so that it doesn't keep showing new cross references every time you click on one of those texts. Are you confused yet?

You'll see. It's really very simple.

Christ Knows Just How To Help Us Overcome

Thou shalt fear the Lord thy God, and serve him. Deu_6:13.

We should not present our petitions to God to prove whether He will fulfill His word, but because He will fulfill it; not to prove that He loves us, but because He loves us.

"Again, the devil taketh him up into an exceeding high mountain . . . and saith unto him, All these things will I give thee, if thou wilt fall down and worship me."

This was Satan's crowning effort. Into this effort he threw all his beguiling power. It was the charm of the serpent. He exerted the power of his fascination upon Christ, striving to make Him yield His will to him. In His weakness Christ laid hold of God. Divinity flashed through humanity. Christ stood revealed as the Commander of heaven, and His words were the words of one who has all power. "Get thee behind me, Satan," He said, "for it is written, Thou shalt worship the Lord thy God, and him only shalt thou serve."

Satan had questioned whether Jesus was the Son of God. In his summary dismissal he had proof that he could not gainsay. He had no power to resist the command. Writhing with humiliation and rage, he was forced to withdraw from the presence of the world's Redeemer. Christ's victory was as complete as had been the failure of Adam.

Christ knew of the long years of conflict in the future between human beings and their subtle foe. He is the refuge of all who, beset by temptation, call upon Him. Temptation and trial will come to us all, but we need never be worsted by the enemy. Our Saviour has conquered in our behalf. Satan is not invincible. Day by day he meets those who are on trial, striving by his wiles to gain the mastery over them. His accusing power is great, and it is in this line that he wins more victories than in any other. Christ was tempted, that He might know how to help every soul that should afterward be tempted. Temptation is not sin; the sin lies in yielding. To the soul who trusts in Jesus, temptation means victory and greater strength.

Christ is ready to pardon all who come to Him confessing their sins. To the tried, struggling soul is spoken the word "Let him take hold of my strength, that he may make peace with me; and he shall make peace with me." Thank God, we have a high priest who is touched with the feelings of our infirmities, for He was in all points tempted as we are.-Manuscript 113, 1902.

Christ Triumphant- EGW

  Didn't know anything about this, either!  Thank you!  and another thing that is so nice about e-sword, you don't have to be online to use it......it works 100% of the time, not just when you have internet access...I really appreciate that.....
When the character of Christ shall be perfectly reproduced in His people, then He will come to claim them as His own. {COL 69}

Yes, that is another good reason to like it. Your own personal study software. Set up however you like. You can also keep your study notes in it under headings that you create yourself. That is found under "Study Topics". And under the "Study Notes" tab, there is a place to write notes beside each and every verse in the Bible, if that is what you want to do. 
 
For example: Under the "Study Topics" tab, I created a topic called "Destruction of the wicked". I created that topic back when I was arguing with sky, whether God destroys the wicked or not. And under that topic, I have all the EGW quotes that I used the most in that argument, and all the Bible texts that I used. So if I ever need them again, they're all in one spot at my finger tips, and I don't have to go and look them all up again. Neat huh?

There are some versions of the Bible that are not free, due to copyright laws. For example the "New King James Version" is not free. But I found that I like the "King James 2000" better. And it is free. I have about 10 versions in mine that I use, and all of them were free. Here is where you get all the different versions. There's lots of them:
