Mcmaye:

Really, are u kidding me? Dude u lack knowledge, you read your bible and check what it says. There is no difference in both, dey are both products of technology. And d best way to carry the word of God is to do so by heart.

the sarcasm flew over your head - if anything, you are the one with the lack of knowledge.

[size=14pt]my personal reason being that unlike the book you cant underline important places....what wld you do if the battery runs down in service, you ll have to look for somewhere to charge it, which i find distracting.then you cant leave it on your seat and go out as we do to tell someone else that the seat is already taken. though its easier and faster to find passages with it.[/size]

Do you spend 10hrs in your church?
If you can't keep your Ipad or phone in your church for fear of theft, you call that a church?

So coincidental, this topic was discussed in our discipleship service this morning (Baptist). But what could I say amidst the old skool congregation that out rightly negate the use of e bible.
One old woman even said e bible is for those that are ashamed of Christ.

There is no difference & there is difference,
1. No difference - The words are the same, more bible version.
2. The difference - come 2 tink of it, we get 2 read d bible more with the bible on a gadget, there are more dan just bible on d device so we get easily distracted wit likes of FB, mails e.t.c.

This is my take

Soreza: and to add to it,its a total distraction,imagine reading the bible 2ru ur tablet and a chat message pops up,surely u will divert ur attention to ur chat and be distract from the word,it is a strategy from hell

IF the bible apps have been downloaded to your tablet, there is no reason to use the internet while inside the church.. You can simply turn your internet off and use the apps bible only. The problem in nigeria is that we are not yet used to tablets and when someone use it, you will imagine people beside you will just got attention of it. unlike if you are in a well developed country, it would be more easier coz everybody has it and wont feel like its a wonder from heaven. i approve using tablet in the church while internet is switched off.
God bless

[size=28pt]No difference.
The first Holy Bible was written on Tablets of Stone before Scrolls.

The best copy of the Holy Bible is the one written on the tablets of your heart.[/size]

ajasa4link: no matter the version of Bible in ur iPad,u can never use it to cast out the devil

So your Bible book does it abi ? Nonsense ! I'll stick the original inscribed-by-God 10 commandments I have_makes more sense. Not to talk of how this doesn't account for how the likes of Elisha and Paul worked cast out demons and infirmities before the Bible came.

Soreza: no no no,even some churches if not all,its is written there that u switch ur phone off,so wots the point coming to church with a phone when it will be switch of totally,better at home
that was during the era of 3310.
I simply put my phone on offline mode and focus my attention on the word of God which is solely able to save my soul.

Both the physical and tablet types of bible contains the words of God and we can only cast demons by declaring the words in both.

The Bible say we should not stumble others. How many people can afford and ipad in ur church? It distract them, it might even make them wanna go to any length to make big money.

Apostle Paul said, "If eating will make you stumble your brother, its better you stop eating"
1 Corinthians 8:13

So what will it take u to carry your printed Bible to the church? It even bring u closer to the word of God. As u open the pages, u learn how to easily locate the bible books.

I no wan talk too much joooor.

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!!
In my own opinion, or let me say in addition to your view, using a Tablet in the Church makes you very susceptible to accessing some other irrelevant things while you are in the house of God, where your full concentration is needed before God.
You may wonder what kind of distractions, I meant text messages, E-mails, "possibly missed calls", and some other books. But truely, how disciplined you are is only put to test, otherwise, I see no problem with it.

The Devil is so cunning though.
