Thanks so much for your response, Alicia!

Which Bible version/translation one prefers and why.

5

Oh, interesting! I will take this into consideration! Thank you.

You are welcome. Our preacher (Church of Christ) uses the ESV, many brothers and sisters in attendance use other translations such as the NIV, NASB, etc. I myself use the NKJV. Some bring their study bible to the Bible study held prior to the service celebrating the Lords Supper, and that is the only bible they use. Others have a basic non-study vision for both the study and the worship. So I was curious as to what people think. I am of the opinion one should have a Bible they are comfortable with as long as it is faithful.

Faithful, indeed. Accuracy is important.

I thank you again for suggesting the idea. This is actually pretty interesting and something many people probably don’t think too much about. I certainly haven’t until now.

I picked up 2 new Bibles recently, both NKJV. From Apologetics Press, I bought the Defending the Faith Study Bible. All commentary or notes help in countering all the arguments against the Bible being the Word of God. Very nice. The other Bible (just released in April this year) is the Nelson Evangelical Study Bible; red letter and thumb indexed. I am extremely happy with this Bible. Both bibles are well worth looking into.

I would like to take specific verses, like Mark 6:5… A point in Jesus’ ministry when He could not perform miracles. Was the unbelief so great that He just threw up His hands?

I find it useful to use a parallel Bible. The multiple translations aid in my understanding of the text. I especially appreciate a Study Bible that defines the original text. I think it is important to pray for the gift of discernment so that the Holy Spirit can guide your understanding.

I have found an app, e-Sword, to be most useful in my studies.

I would like to see some articles on Church Leadership; ie Pastor, Elders, Deacons, and the qualifications and responsibilities of each office.

Thanks for the ability to submit such suggestions
