The simple truth is that the word of God, is the word of God. Be it in paper or electronic form. But the BIGGER truth is that the paper Bible has no distraction while our electronics devides/tablets(like the one am using to post now) has unlimited distractions.

You might argue that you'll resist the urge to view those notifications or other things, but why give temptation that opportunity in the first place?

I am not claiming to be a Saint, but I believe the word of God that resides in the paper bible is more efficacious than the one residing alongside, immoral pics, videos, txt, games, web links etc. Just like the word of God in our heads is more efficacious than the paper one.

So good ppl, memorize the bible, and if you can't, carry a paper bible. For me, electronic bible is a matter of convenience...if I want to study, its paper bible all the way.

Why would anyone opposite the use of bible applications instead of the paper bad version? It is 2013 ladies and gentleman. Perhaps we all need to start using Bible Scrolls like they did in the days of moses.

There is a big difference in going to church with a physical bible to a tablet. And the difference is that there are possibilities of distracting others around you if you go to church with a tablet which God would not approve of.

Sunglow: .Hmmm...it is only a fool dat says there is no God.

According to ur bible Matthew 5:22.
Whosoever shall say, Thou fool, shall be in danger of hell fire.

You need to understand that your bible is two faced and any quote you make is not credible. I still stand on the fact that there is no God.

Yungwizzzy: Bro, are you talking of the same tablet that has over 200 bluefilms??

Well, the devil is not scared of your phone or table or laptop but the physical Bible is fire to his eyes.

Though, no matter where you read your Bible from if you don't work according to it's instructions its useless!!

MY PEOPLE, WHY IT IS VERY IMPORTANT TO EMPHASIZE THAT ALMIGHTY GOD SEES THE HEART OF MEN AND KNOWS ITS CONTENT, IT IS ALSO PREFERABLE TO TAKE THE BIBLE TO CHURCH INSTEAD OF A TABLET FOR SO MANY REASONS WHICH THOUGH MAY NOT BE SIN BUT HINDRANCES TO THE FAITH OF OTHERS SINCE EVERY ONE IN THE CHURCH IS AT DIFFERENT LEVEL OF MATURITY WHEN IT COMES TO SPIRITUAL MATTERS. THERE IS MORE THAT MEETS THE EYES ON THIS ISSUE. THE REVELATION AT YOUR DISPOSAL ALSO HAVE A ROLE TO PLAY IN ALL THESE. THANKS!

Just as your name proves, you are the bad egg in reading the bible... The bible says whosoever shall say... that is in the future... and the other one... a fool says in his heart... that one has been concluded... the fool so to say just have to walk into it...

Osahon7: too much nollywood i guess!! Hav a witch attacked u b4 dat u use a ''physical bible'' to block it?? Consider a person dat have a BIG ''physical'' bible dat dont read it and his/her heart is filled wit unrighteousness and somebodi dat has a ''tablet bible'' who reads and mediates on the word, who do u tink is the christian??

The word of God in your head that resides with all the other rubbish you absorb right?

Stop being over religious.

It depends on the kind of church you attend, if you attend the "if you are not there yet say wait for me" kind, it is advisable you used the paper bible for sake of the other man who may fall, if you attend the kind the pastors quote the bible off hand then you need the electronic type otherwise you might be lost. But I personal prefer the electronic type because it is easy and fast, you can have all versions of the bible and it encourages bible study with it's variety of features.

That is the crap we christian spew these days to justify God-knows-what. This is utter bull really. Why do we have to drammatize everything about us. Just like the other obvious lies people call testimonies to make God look good, which usually backfires and makes him look bad instead. John milton in his poem, ''on his blindness'' stated that whether we believe him or not, whether we worship him or not, God is God. God himself says that if we do not worship him, he'll raise the stones etc to do so......''for whether we worship him or not, God is God''.

Abeg tell them! Giving God's glory to an inanimate object.

How dare anybody say God's power only resides in pages of paper?! Have you become so religious you have turned godless? You are going in the error of Eli's sons, thinking the Ark is a talisman/magic charm. The bible is not a talisman o!

Serious?? Your God didn't give humans the brain for tech advancement? it was the devil that produced the printing press used for mass printing of the paper Bible, right? Cos those days it was a marvellous invention. You're lucky we're not debating this face-to-face. I'd have whitewashed you so bad, you'll change your antediluvian mindset.

the Tablet is not Holy like the Bible and moreover cannot cast out demons from your presence..
