Cycling through Topically Indexed Books

Some people fear that technology may make us lazier when it comes to studying the Bible. I've always said though that Libronix can make us better students of the Word. Here's a shortcut to back me up. Open the book The Great Doctrines of the Bible. Take it to the article for justification. Read all you want from this book. You don't have to be through with your study though because your library has a lot more to say about justification. To get to other articles on this subject just press the keystroke Ctrl + Page Up or Page Down to scroll alphabetically through the rest of your resources for information about justification! (By the way, the left and right arrows on the keyboard will do the same thing.)
