WTF ar u sayin

WTF ar u sayin

What he is trying to say is that hard copy is more RE than the soft copies, one can say soft copies are MI. . .now I'm not sure if both can be called DO, but I know for sure sure that in some circles, hard copies are seen as FA, these people thumb their noses at soft copies because they consider it SO. Of course there is another set who think both Soft and Hard copies are just LA and TI and that we call need to step up to DO. . .now this is where the good stuff is at.

I believe the Holy Bible is a powerful book and shouldn't be replaced by anything. You can heal somebody by placing the Holy Bible on their body, can you do that with your phone

The word of God is Life! The Holy Bible is the key

The things that are sin to God are clearly stated in the bible o! using the bible in your phone in church is not not a sin. all na still bible. like many have said here, its the word in the bible and not the physical book that has the power.

Can someone tell me where i can download an audio bible most especially on my mobile phone.

Not sin except you start pinging nd facebooking inside church...

Hahahaha. We go soon see "what are you singing?"

senben: Using Ur fone bible during de service may not be a sin but it could be a source of distraction because calls,text or chats could make U lose focus in de process of the service...

u can always switch to Offline mode!

lilkech: We go 2 church 2 worship and praise God.

The only gadgets allowed are supposed to be musical based

lets not allow the western world lead us into blind sin

I dont even know wat to say. Now Its right to use musical instruments but not E-bible?(Hypocritical). So d musical instruments were sent to us from heaven by God right? Not 4rm d western world right? Hmm, do u knw there was a time dat using musical instruments in d church were perceived as sin too??

lol! You no dey read the comments at all?

i was readn dz post and i slept off and had a dream....u rememba those dayz when we open our picture biblez and c the angels on horses carrying huge blazing swords....now in my dream mehn they were with armored tanks, jet fighters and carrying gunz to fight demons.....is dz 4 real

Really funny thing happened to me just now: I took a passing glance at this topic and could've sworn it said "Is using your phone to self-service on sunday a sin?" lol!

actually i cant remember the last time i took bible to church. But i know we are gradually going from hard copy to softcopy. the reason you still take your hard copy is because you dont have an E-bible.

Is not a sin

All I can say is the Atheist now have point.
We all have proved with this post that religion is evolving.

Who knows what we are going to argue about in 30yrs years time.
The more people become exposed to better education and technology the more logical reasoning will put to rest some of the religous myths.

Do we even know what sin is? How can anyone thing using phone as Bible is a sin.SMH

So on what basis do you now believe on the meaning of hardcopy and softcopy? That you saw something on the internet does not mean its true.

1. Really? Lazy? So what will portray you as serious and hardworking? A tattered, survived-the-first-world-war bible?
_
2. So we want to get acquainted with the pages and not the message? Wow! I never knew.
_
3. Would you stop that already! You christians've been shouting of this end time for 2k+ years now. Believe me, it gets old. And where in revelations does it say, after the dancing dragons and the fires and the horses and the tattoos, that an ebible is among the signs of the beast?

4. YES! Absolutely! My professor demands it. He says, and I quote "No archaic textbooks in my class. My classroom shall be paper-free."

I am going to answer with the word of God.....(unless you are an unbeliever)

1 Cor. 10:23 - Everything is permissible— but not everything is beneficial. Everything is permissible— but not everything is constructive. (NIV)

1 Cor. 10:23 - All things are lawful for me, but not all things are helpful; all things are lawful for me, but not all things edify. (KJV)

My guy you are free to use whatever bible you like but ask yourself are you going to show them that you have the latest IPAD or mobile device? Christianity is being turned to a something else.....we are getting too familiar with God. Have you ever seen an Imam using a mobile quaran in the mosque? Besides I have more 4 good bibles and non of them looks war-torn, they are new looking, if any is not looking presentable I simply buy another!

Very soon we'll start bringing GUNS into the church. Not all things are helpful... QUOTE ME PLEASE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

God help us.

But don't quote me wrong....USING YOUR PHONE BIBLE IN THE CHURCH IS NOT SIN! Only it is not advisable from my standpoint....see my comments in page one https://www.nairaland.com/899893/using-phone-as-bible-sunday/1#10464766[url][/url].

Cheers.

I find it truly amusing that the same church members who throw themselves to the floor praising God for their churches acquiring private jets, airlines and building the biggest auditoriums because it shows how financially blessed their church is, are the same people claiming the moral ground on this phone usage.

You know I could easily rephrase the part of your post your in bold in response to people who are defending the Churches and their private jet acquiring mission.


My guy you are free to defend your pastors for owning airlines but ask yourself are they doing it to to show others that they have money to buy Jets? Christianity is being turned to a something else.....we are getting too familiar with God. Have you ever seen an Imam owning Jets, Limousines, Hummers? What happened to the good old fashion Toyota Camrys, Honda Civic and flying commercial??

Lmao!!!

Okay, jokes aside. . .You people forget that it is not everyone who sees these gadgets as status symbols. For some of us they are just that....Gadgets. Gadgets that make things easier and convenient. . .I'm in church in Timbuktu, I take notes and highlight Bible verses on my phone and immediately send it to somebody in Kotangora, who can send it to someone else. . .before you know it, someone in the far flung city of Melbourne has gotten the same message. . .all while I am still in Church, if that doesn't epitomize spreading the gospel, I don't know what does (Now, Now, no need for ovation, I'm just doing my part to spread the Lord's work )

I say, instead of debating on whether or not using phone as bible is a sin, I think the real topic should be why we are so materialistic. Why do we look to stupid things like phones, ipad etc as the measure of a person's status. . .now THAT, my friend is the real issue here.

The problem is not with those things. . .they are after all mere objects, the problem is with us because we have allowed these mere objects to warp the way we see life.

It is not advisable from your standpoint for YOU because you probably know your motives for using them is for karimi sake. . .you forgot to add the last part.

Live and Let's Live.

If tech nd development is a sin den lets go back 2 scroll

Sisi Eko you have spoken your mind.....but the issue is how would you be distracted during service sending bible quote to someone? Tell me. You can only be in one place at a time. Time to unplug your gadget and let God speak to you, I use my gizmos in my private time and I enjoy it then but not in church! My pastor doesn't own a private jet and does not flaunt his possessions......and thanks for finishing my thoughts some use these gadget in church to show off! I don't even enjoy reading e-books...I always print them out. So leave matter for Mathias!

It's KILL oh. . .KILL. I don't joke with my KILLS abeg!!

Dude, it takes me but two seconds to send what I wanna send and it is usally because something compels me to do so in that moment. I don't wanna get all spiritually rahrahrah on you but I feel there is a reason why I needed to send that particular message to that particular someone at that particular time.

Again, not everyone is easily distracted, not everyone sees these gadgets as status symbols, not everyone is moved by outward appearances, that you carry 4 freshly minted Bibles and scores of papers for bible study does not mean you are more spiritual than anyone else. People find their own ways to do things because it is convenient for them, as long as they are not hurting anyone in the process. . .let them be, I say!!!!

Live and Let's Live...Dude, Live and Let's Live!!!!


Gosh there are soooo many other, more interesting things we could be debating than this. For instance, did you read the report on a study that said Born Agains are more likely to suffer Hippocampal Atrophy? Now that is a topic I would love to sink my teeth into. There's gotta be some truth to it, yes? I mean you can clearly see the evidence on this thread.

What say you and I get that topic going?

Go ahead SISI EKO (Taunting you)

Anyway I was just expressing how I feel, I'm not impossing anything on anybody....I think I am entitle to my opinion.

Sisi....waiting for you new topic. Post away!

For someone to say using a soft copy of bible in a phone is a sin, is a sure sign that,that kind of a person is yet to embrace the world of ict, and he or she is still living in 19th century. What is the difference between hard copy and soft copy? Is just the weight and that is inmaterial.

I do not think it is a sin to use an e-bible in church, however in our present society where over 80% of the church would be with their hard copy bibles flipping through a phone or a tablet in church can be a tad distracting to others. I think that's where it becomes wrong distracting others is a sin! so you choose!

Seriously? common guys! in the days of the old, we had scrolls where bible passages were handed down to us from. i bet ppl probably asked same questions when paper bibles start cominig into use. Look, God don't give a care from what quality of bible you use as long as there are His own word. I tell you what, I love to compare the different bibles to see how sentences are been handled or paraphrased. This is in search of meanings I find hard to draw from other bibles. if ma ipad or phone is gonna have over 12 bibles in it for this purpose then why not? Ma opinion? Not a SIN.

I'm confused: WHICH IS MORE SINFUL? USING BLACKBERRY'S E-BIBLE, USING THE IPHONE'S E-BIBLE, USING THE GALAXY S2'S E-BIBLE, USING THE PLAYBOOK'S E-BIBLE, USING THE IPAD'S E-BIBLE, OR USING THE GALAXY TAB'S E-BIBLE?

^^Using 'trium' should be more sinful and vile, an unacceptable abominable action in very deed.

^ hahahahahahahahalooooool!
