Whether you are a Christian who has many years in the faith, a new Christian or even a non-believer, the Word of God (The Bible) is an item that should be of great use to all. My personal preference is The King James Version. Traditionally, most people own a hard copy of The Bible, but with the technology of today and most people having access to a computer many have found it to be an advantage having it downloaded onto their computer. There are built-in features within these programs that save time, energy and make it possible to download to portable devices. His Word is truth and the Bible is the most valuable earthly procession we will ever have access to.

Christians new and mature know that in order to walk and live the Christian life The Bible is a must. As believers study His Word they grow in knowledge and learn to understand how to live the Christian life. As we grow close to God, He opens our eyes to new understanding throughout the scriptures. As we need food for our body to gain strength, our mind needs His Word to strengthen our mind and spirit.

Unbelievers too can gain knowledge and understanding from reading The Bible. Without reading His Word how is one to know they do not believe in the Bible? Once read some have been touched by God and have found that they actually do believe. Many have gone on to be great men and women of God. The unbelievers who still deny His Word at least now have read and know why they do not believe.

The King James Version is what I grew up with in church. Through the years I have been taught that this Bible was written directly from the original transcripts and that King James of England ordered that any translator be put to death who deviated from the original content. Although many versions have been written (none of which I have an opinion of) the King James Bible is my preference. I believe God opens our eyes to help us when he wants us to understand a particular scripture.

With access to computers and downloadable programs it has never been easier to get into Gods’ word. We can now download an entire Bible, Old and New Testament from one program onto our computer. We also have the capabilities to download the Bible from our computers to portable devices such as iPhones and eReader’s to have with us as we go about our day.

I believe God’s word to be the true and final word. I cannot imagine my faith or growth in the Lord without access to my Bible. Many countries are not allowed Bibles, so I see this as a great privilege in America that we can freely read His Word.
