Apostle, you're not quite correct on this one.There's nothing wrong in reading Bible from ur smart phones or gadgets.The recording of the Word of God started on tablets of stone to hand written scrolls then to print and now,electronic.Why not go back to 'stone Bible' since you want to reverence God? Searching the scriptures does not mean flipping leaves of the print Bible but diligent study to KNOW God. Reading from print Bible does not mean reverence to God.What God wants is to do His word, that is the reverence He accepts.The Word of God is Spirit not mere letters.

Nigerian pastors and their 'holier than thou' attitude.
My pastor uses Ipad to teach during sermon but doesn't want me to use my phone when reading bible.
My pastor will always delay closing time by 30 mins - 1hr and still criticise members for being conscious of time when in the house of God cheesy
The only reason I'm against use of phone in church is distraction from messaging apps. Otherwise, no difference between print and electronic bibles to me.


No disturbance when on flight mode while you use your offline bible

I said this is wrong over 5 years ago now but people argued and I asked them; if you have a spiritual attack at night, can you lift your phone or tab where u have your Bible installed to rebuke the attacker

I lift my smart phone on every issue and it works well for me.

How can I compare my offline multi version bible to analogue one?

Some of the twitter comments doesn´t make sense. First, he never said dont come to church with mobile devices for other purposes, secondly how can someone say there is no difference between a mobile bible and a hard copy? what is wrong with this generation? obviously those who dont read books will never understand where he is coming from.



Mobile Bible is the best to me.
Easy to open chapter, ability to increase your letters or move from one translation to another.

Is it lifting your bible that you use to attack your enemies, or your knowledge and faith in the word? The letter truly killeth. Can you show where the apostles carried a scroll (there were no bibles then as we have today) to point at a demoniac to cast out a demon?

Really? Is it the book with hard covers referred to as bible that rebukes the attacker or the knowledge of the Word you have in your heart? I think you watched too much Nollywood movies when you were younger smiley

It was technological advancement that saw the use of paper in keeping the bible. Same technological advancement sees to the use of electronic devices. Why accept one and reject the other?

You guys are so ignorant and read your scriptures backwardly without understanding, it could be the effects of Nollywood movies where demons are being cast out with Bible in pastor's hands.

Of all the time Jesus casted out demons in the scripture... was he holding the Bible [Scroll] ?

Even when Christ was tempted, he *Quoted* the scripture to rebuke Satan. He wasn't holding in it his hands.

You don't need to physically hold the Bible in your hands to cast out or rebuke demon.

You don't need to carry a hard copy of the Bible to rebuke the devil. You rebuke the devil with the Word inside you. The power of God is in the Word of God, which you believe and is working inside you, not in a hard copy. Don't let Nollywood deceive you.

I knw dat u just want 2 mock xtianity, but I'll still reply u. Sometimes, when god wants 2 reveal tinz to us, he tries to bring it down to our mental level, so we can understand. As at d time when apst John wrote his revelations, there was no automobile, so d only way Jesus could make him undastand his 2nd triumphant coming, was to make John see him coming in chariots. Let's even say Jesus' 2nd coming would truely b on chariots, do u think there would b any automobile dat would b half as fast, or strong as those horses?

I still maintain my stand, he's right, you can only use it if you are on a journey and you can't have access to Bible at that instance, or in the office.
