Review: Pastor Ray Comfort has hit the mark with the evidence bible. In it you'll find: a practical and biblicall way to present the gospel, answers to the most common objections to christianity, how to preach open air, prove God's existence, quotes from popular figures and from well known evangelists etc... This bible has given me a new zeal and how-to to preach the gospel. The great commission is every bible believing christian's duty and this bible helps you to carry out that call, every christian should get this bible!

Summary: In depth study
Review: The author does a good job of presenting study notes to explain ways of witnessing to various religous groups. He also goes into detail about topics that are often misunderstood by the average reader. For the serious Bible student, it is a good starting point to give direction for more in depth study, but for the most part it doesn't go much farther than a brief explanation of different topics. I have used it many times to get a simplified means to speaking to younger Christians who are seeking to grow in the word but are too young to grasp much of the deeper theology when reading the Bible. I would recommend this book as a topical guide to anyone with pre-teen children.

Summary: Great witnessing tool!!
Review: The Evidence Bible is the New Testament + Psalms & Proverbs in the KJV. Throughout the entire Bible there are quotes from every revivalist you can think of in addition to some from well known scientiest. This Bible has the answer to any question - Athieism, evolution, dinosaurs, etc.. Great for skeptics & so awesome for street witnessing.

Summary: Buy It Now!!
Review: The only thing that I have against this Bible is the translation used; the KJV. I would prefer it in the NKJV or NIV. But it is the easy-reading version of the KJV, that is an improvement. But the helps are incredible! I am a layman, but I teach Sunday School, Bible School and Prison Bible Study and this Bible gives you material that you can really use. It also jogs your own creative juices and motivates you to study further. Very practical applications that challenge your own life. Do you really love Jesus for what He did for you on the cross? If you do, you will share it with others. Here is the toolbox with all the tools!

Summary: NOT for thinking minds
Review: This book contains Ray Comfort's opinion on many matters. He bends the scriptures to suit his own beliefs. As an example, on page 170 (Matthew 5:44) he attempts to validate executing people and does not mention Jesus' very clear directions not to avenge e.g. Romans 12:14,12:17, 12:19
Unfortunately he is also inaccurate and makes untruthful statements about science and scientific research throughout the book, for example about geology and dating of fossils. And then despite supposedly discrediting carbon-dating in previous arguments he then uses carbon dating to validate the Dead Sea Scrolls.
This book is full of personal opinion pretending to be fact and is not for a thinking mind. It's Ray Comfort's distortion of Jesus' teachings.

Summary: Very reliable!
Review: This is a very good version of the New Testament, Psalms & Proverbs for a post-modern generation who needs insight into bible history. I must address the anonymous reviewer who is very misinformed! He said that Ray Comfort tries to justify executions! Here's the part Mr. Anonymity quotes in its entirety: (Quote) "5:38
'When the Bible says 'an eye for an eye,' it encourages
us to take the law in our own hands
by avenging wrongdoing.' This verse is so often misquoted by the world. Many believe it is giving
a license to take matters into our own hands and render evil for evil.
In reality, it is referring to civil law concerning restitution. If someone
steals your ox, he is to restore the ox. If someone steals and wrecks
your car, he is to buy you another one...a car for a car, an eye for an
eye, a tooth for a tooth.
The spirit of what Jesus is saying here is RADICALLY DIFFERENT [emphasis mine] from the "sue the shirt off the
back of your neighbor" society in which we live." (Unquote). Do you understand? He's not saying go kill somebody, but that civil law required the offender to make reparation to the offended; to apologize by replacing what has been damaged at his/her expense. How is this validating the execution of people?! I don't have the space to correct the other erroneous material; trust the Lord, and His people entrusted by Him, people who have spent their lives and time gathering the historical and scientific information substantiating the validity of the Word of God. Forget trying to tear this book apart. It has been tried for centuries, but to no avail. Jesus Rules!God Bless!
