I don't see any hipocrisy anywhere. Electronic gadgets have the complete bible just like the paper bible, thus almost making it The same thing . The only primary issue here is the distraction that comes from reading through electronic gadgets. Bulletin on the other hand does not in any ramifications equate to the bible. It's nothing other than a pamphlet containing few scriptural references and order of service guidelines. My issue with bulletins from day one is dat it seriously restricts the manifestation of the holy spirit in church services. Because of the bulletin, Everything is just done religiously and ceremoniously during service.....thus restricting the flow of the holy spirit to enable worshippers declare word of knowledge, prophecy, and other diverse gifts during service.
Rubbish Nonsense Gibberish.

Stop defending nonsense.

Holy Spirit this, Holy Spirit that.

In this context there is no difference between reading from the bulletin and reading from your phone or big asss flat screen TV cus according to you guys reading from the bulletin did not carry the grace which came from reading directly from the Holy Bible.

So same way, there is no grace reading from your phone and flat screen as well.

Na the grace wey una say e nor de for bulletin na im be my point.

Stop insisting on your hypocrisy. You've been rounded up.

And Who are you to ask me that question? Are you buying data for me?

How does that relate to the thread topic

Brought a question straight out ya assss and asking me rubbish..

I choose what to respond to and what not to respond to.

Even your father can't look me in the face and ask me questions!


That's the problem with useless Christians thinking it's denomination that will give them salvation.

Go and download the Youversion bible that has the bible in all the languages in the world. You can listen to the bible in SO MANY languages. Moreover you get to do everything you can do with a physical bible with added benefits. Your mobile phone is almost always with you and that means you carry your bible with you everywhere. You have your details backed up in the cloud so that bible and all the markings stay with you forever. It doesn't suffer wear and tear like a physical bible. Don't resist tech advancements. Learn to understand that these things are for the advancement of the Gospel. Shalom

Christ never read the paper bible. He read the scrolls

So if you really want to imitate Christ, you have to go get the scroll and read from there.

Book bible was invented in the 14th or so century, over a thousand years after the death of Christ.

Phone bible and book bible are all the same

It's high time you Nigerian christians learn that just as you have the right to spread your word I have the right to call you on your bullshit

If you continually attack people who dont attack you, it shows your tolerance level is low and it shows your level of maturity

Hard or Soft, The Word Is Spirit and Life

I think what you're doing is a vacuous response to those who like to perpetuate the desire that hard copies are the best forms of reading the word of God.

What matters is the word, which is life and spirit.

If anything, phones or tabs have enabled me to study the Word more. Time was when I had about 30 versions of the Bible on my tab.

As far as discipline goes, it's up to the Christian to discipline themselves with technology, not becoming reckless with it.

This one is one of the many that subconsciously resists technically advancement.

So if I need like 5 different translations, I should carry the 5 heavy paper Bibles, whereas a simple app has more than 10 of them?

So now that I want to sleep small and wake up in 2 hrs to read my Bible, I hope I can use the paper Bible as alarm to wake me up?

Can I chat with people reading the same page as me to clearify any misunderstanding?

Op is not against mobile phone nor tech advancement. He just highlighted the pros and cons on the situation and logically gave us convincing reasons to prefer paper to mobile driven

I don't think anything could be dumber!

So students that read their notes/textbooks from their phones on the bus, on the toilet, whilst eating are not 'intentional'

You see how religion has screwed your brain?

I couldn’t believe someone thought this was a brilliant post so they put it on the FP. Like WTAF?! Are people actually this dumb?

Another CON of Bible Apps is that verses or words can be changed or removed to change the original meaning of the text.
Re: Why Your Paper Bible Is Better Than Phone Bible by FBIBOT(m): 12:37pm On Nov 12, 2023
Actually electronic version made bible reading more interesting with persistent and commitment... My bible app has alarm for morning 6am and night reading 9pm (based on setting) with full on screen notification... Even if am on social media the app occurs the whole screen immediately... If I cancel.. It's open again after like 5mins till I read that chapter and press read.... It all boils down to determination and your heart... Once am entering the church my phones goes into do not disturb.... No notification what so ever pops up except for alarm

The bible didn't say punch the Scripture, it says, "search the Scripture".

The write-up is apt but e-bibles are also good. I have both the paper and electronic Bibles .
My electronic Bibles makes studying easy for me. I can easily navigate translations, including interlinear Bible which translates from the original language with concordance.

Back when they used to bash we Catholics for reading from the bulletin.
They said Bible is Bible, nothing can replace the Bible.

But today you have them reading from phones and church flat screens.

Hypocrisy!

I don't have issue using Bible app. If anyone is against it and you want me to drop the idea.

The solution is we all return to reading from the scroll.
