Good News Bible: Today's English Version

Rating:
Summary: Good translation
Review: I think this Bible version is better than the NIV (New International Version). It also seems to be fairly accurate even along with the King James Version. I disagree with some of the reviewers who gave this version only one star and criticism. The King James is far from perfect as well. I use both the Good News Bible and the King James in my Bible devotional time. Translation is a difficult task (I know, I've studied languages in college). So any work that is an attempt to help bring the Gospel to someone deserves at least some credit.

Summary: Easily understood version in a compact package.
Review: The Good News Bible, second edition, is an easily understood account of the life and times of Jesus and his followers. One cannot say more than that. This is a great gift for young and old. Maybe you are just looking for an alternate version to supplement your bible study - this is the bible for you. In addition, this paperback edition is compact and very portable.

Summary: Read the KJV please.
Review: This bible is not the true GOD'S Word. It has been changed too much. I believe that the KJV is the true Bible. God died for our sins. He shed his blood so that we might have everlasting life - but, ONLY if we belive. This bible is written to make you feel good about yourself. All we are sinners destined for hell and damnation. God was not brought into this world just to make us feel good about ourselves but to make us feel a need to repent from our sin. We cannot get to heaven in eternity unless we believe in the LORD JESUS CHRIST.
