Job of old stated that his "...words were now written!Oh,that they were printed in a book" Job 19:23. Prophet Isaiah said "Seek ye out of the book of the LORD, and read; no one of these shall fail, none shall want of her mate; for my moutn, it hath commanded, and his Spirit, it hath gathered them." (Isaiah 34:16). I Know God hath blessed us with the majestic book from 1611 up to now, the book we own and the book that is worth fighting for. Is this book of the LORD that we ought to read, that not one of these shall fail, will now be replaced by online or internet based books?Are Christian no longer hunger and read for the old book? Does God really hates online bible? or ?

I can't figure out what it is you're asking. Do you think that publishing a book in electronic form, like the Bible, makes it "not a book?"

[Cody1611]

I really doubt God hates His word being put on computer for people to read online. I have led people to the Lord via internet, showing the scriptures to them online, so unless it's changing the text, I don't see anything wrong with online King James Bibles.

When the Scripture contained the word "publish", that included the yet unknown realm of electronic digital communication.

Ps*68:11 The Lord gave the word: great was the company of those that published it.

Isa*52:7 How beautiful upon the mountains are the feet of him that bringeth good tidings, that publisheth peace; that bringeth good tidings of good, that publisheth salvation; that saith unto Zion, Thy God reigneth!

A book does not require paper and binding to be a book. Many books are available now online, including the Bible, which are books indeed. In short, a "volume" does not have to be restricted to a physical form.

Also, the word "book" describes various forms, because when the Bible talks about a book, sometimes a roll or scroll is being used, not paper or parchment bound leafs. Also, the Bible uses the word "book" to mean a set of information, which means the contents, as in, "the book of the generations of Adam", etc.

We have the book of books today in many copies, in our KJB, which is exactly the same as what was first written in inspiration, though it is now in English.

I concede movable type did replace manual writing of everything. Radio was supposed to have replaced the book, TV was supposed to have replaced the book and radio, and computers with the internet is supposed to replace everything. The computer is a filing cabinet and nothing more, the internet is a form of communication. A book don't require electricity other than the artificial lighting to read it in darkness. The most efficient cutting tool there is is the laser, and it will never replace the knife. The book will always be here.

Grace and peace

Well, I have to be honest, I'd like all your comment. Sure I do, like Cody1611, God can use internet to led one for the Saviour and so long it will be an online KJV is ok. Thanks, and thanks but one thing is lacking: I don't have a free bible software that is reliable to help me in my study of God Word....hehehe

Get the trial Brother for 30 days, you never know how the Lord will bless you after the 30 days

Using software can make Bible study quite fast indeed. If you use it for nothing but searches it will pay off.

Grace and peace,

E-Sword has been an awesome blessing to me.

Mat 7:29 For he taught them as one having authority, and not as the scribes.

[BornAgainBibleBeliever514]

Hi folks,

The only thing I could see God not appreciating about the online Bibles is the very shortcoming they have caused in my study life:
I use word and phrase searches, which is great, but it makes me lazy, and I remember less than had I been searching for it myself amid the Book's pages.
Granted, it greatly accelerates study, and helps with comparissons but still reduces the amount of time I spend pouring over the pages.
There is something more convicting about reading the words off a page than a screen, they seem to stick better.

Anyways, I use eSword and whenever on the go or at work, I use the Blue letter Bible (with KJV selected, of course).

I think I tried Sword Searcher back when I first joined this forum, but wasn't immediately hooked on it, perhaps I should have another look at it.

There is this other thing I've always wanted to buy, for those times when your nowhere near a computer, and your memory fails you to locate a specific verse you are thinking of:

http://www.thekjvstore.com/product_d...mcid=1&pgid=64

Its pretty sweet, you can put in your own SD card, and use this thing to listen to the Bible being read, either with earphones, or out loud via a speaker. Yoou can load up your owwn ebooks, audio files or even video.
If I wasn't so tightly budgeted, I'd have one by now.

But ultimately, all is vanity, there is no excuse for me to not spend more and more time in the old Book.
