Your study tools, in one app
REFORMAMINI reads the e-Sword modules natively: commentaries, dictionaries and lexicons, devotionals, maps and books. Those study features work with your modules, and only with the ones that are not encrypted (REFORMAMINI warns you if a module cannot be read). It also ships with two public-domain Bibles and twenty historic texts from the Reformed tradition to get you started.
So you may know the will of God
This app is here so you can study the Word. So that study may renew your mind and, by that renewal, transform you. The why is in the same verse: to know the good, pleasing and perfect will of God.
REFORMAMINI is not a slogan. It comes from the Latin translation of the Bible, the Vulgate, in Romans 12:2: sed reformamini in novitate sensus vestri. In English that word is be transformed. If you are a pastor, a missionary, or you simply want to study, this is for you.
«And do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind, so that you may approve what the will of God is, that which is good and pleasing and perfect.»

17For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world, but that the world through him might be saved.

The love of God is the source of salvation, not man's response.
Faith is the means, never the merit.

The Windows warning when you download
Windows may show «Windows protected your PC» because the installer is not code-signed: the project does not yet have enough funds to pay for certification. The warning does not mean your computer is in danger: it means the file came from the internet and has no reputation yet.
To continue: click «More info» and then «Run anyway». Do not turn off any protection.
You can check it yourself: the SHA-256 fingerprint of each file is published next to the download.
