I have heard of it before and have thought that it would be nice to use it. However, I just can't afford that!

They can teach how to do some things, yes. But they can't teach you certain skills, like how to understand the grammar of the original text..ect.
If you cant see that there are certain features in Logos that require certain skills, I am not sure there is much else I can say.
This is a stupid conversation.

Perhaps..... but you'll pay twice as much to get all the modules to match BibleWorks. A shame.
I have WordSearch 9. I was able to transfer my Quickverse books to it since Wordsearch bought them out.
I first started out with Logos years ago, but gave up on it because in order to get the books you wanted, you had to buy their packaged versions with useless books & a high price tag.
You'd think the companies would charge less to get the Word out there..... but they're more business-minded than Kingdom-minded. Some are downright cutthroats, selling old books that no longer have copyrights for the same amount as those that do.
BTW, advertising a product on CC is against the rules.

Do you think that these latest software's have increased are time spent in the Lord or decreased. Has it helped or hindered our meditation.
Now I am not being judgemental here but what I've found in me using a lot of software is I search for what I'm Intrested in and possibly not what the Lord wants to show me.
Just saying that in some cases it is better to turn off the puter and search for that nugget on your own with the holy spirit of course.

Interesting ad. I think I pretty much have everything described in the ad in books I have from Seminary. Plus knowing how to read Hebrew and Greek probably helps me a lot more than trying to figure out another computer program.
I also looked at their commentaries and lexicons, and I have to say mine are better. I could see some use for this, but not at $2000. I have never paid that kind of money for software. I guess my age is showing - I would rather have a good, recognized book, and actual training than relying on a program like this.
I don't know anything about ESword, but I remember a lot of the students at one seminary I attended for transfer courses recommended it quite highly. And I believe it is cheap? Correct me if I am wrong.
I guess as long as people are learning, something like this is a good thing. But once again, doing a word search in Hebrew or Greek simply does not begin to cover the complexities of grammar, syntax and cultural and genre issues.

They definitely have changed the way they run the company. I get resources for a good price. They have more sales.Maybe one day you can try it again.
I may pay more, but I have better features than any other software has.
Not cut-down though. If something helps, use it for God's glory.
