Almost all the pulpit sagas in my church i worship operates in another level of christianity.sometimes they make me feel belittle and thinks that i dont worth coming to church with the little new testement paper bible im using..
now almost all the young members in my church owns it on thier phones and ipads and since im using touch nokia it also makes me feel somehow..

Abeg is it really good that we use this inside the church and forget about the ones that was written by inspired men of God.
Because i think the electronics ones are written by conspired men of God...

There is nothing wrong in it.

Sweetie! don't let that make u feel somehow or low ok. electronic or manual.. they are both good and ok as long as it is carrying what's in the bible ☺

electronic bible just makes it faster for you to open a chapter in the bible. no biggie.

which kind "inspire" dis one dey talk?

Without technology, u wouldn't have had a copy of the hardcopy bible........ Or u fink say Moses, Paul etc nai write d millions of copies wey peeps dey buy evri year?

I still wonder why some retards fink Technology is evil...........

nothing wrong as long as you don't have a porn on the same device.

In Jesus days of earthly ministry, the binded bible book you carry today was allien to them. What is important is the writings of the bible. There is nothing as cool as electronic bible. You can have 25 different translation in that small tablet of yours together with comentries and other study mateials like bible dictionary. Am sure if you try that with the paper type, one huge brief case won't contain them.

I disagree. I only heard of the book of life, and not the tablet of life.

It looks so disrespectful and seems dishonourable to come with electronic device before God. There are many distractions in it and worldly and competitive motive.

I don't need more than one bible translation in a sermon, but just to hear God message. I don't need any fast device when my bible talks about patience.
You may become modern, but the standard of the word never change. And beside, only book are recorgnosed in heaven, because technology are made for an imperfect creatures. As a child of God, you don't need any faster device to read the word of your father, when you are not in an hurry.

@HCpaul,

If the Bible were to remain in fragments and inscribed on stones, how could it be shared and carried with ease? How would you maintain all books of the Bible inscribed on thousands of stones? Where are you going to place all the stones in your home? How would you be carrying thousands of stones about? I think you are misguided. Moses, the prophets and the Apostles used stone tablets, papyrus and scrolls, why aren't you using any of these? Why are you using paperwork? The answer is simple. Improvement or changes in technology.

It is dishonourable before GOD? How exactly? There is nothing wrong in reading the Word in humble spirit, irrespective of the container, be it paper, stone, marble, screen, scroll, and so forth.

The Book you hear or read of in the Bible, are so because that was the prevailing technology at the time the Bible was compiled. If Paul were alive today, there is no reason to doubt that he wouldn't be on Twitter at @Saul-2-Paul, where brethren could follow him and get updates on the Word.

You also reveal your ignorance when you said only books are recognised in heaven, not technology. Does it mean I will have to explain to you what technology means? So you don't know papers, tablets, scrolls, screens are all technologies that may be used to share information?

Finally, in all things, our intention matters. If we genuinely study the Word from a tablet, it is OK. Some may be saying, "porn this, porn that." The question you should ask yourself is, "Should a Christian use porn in the first place?" "What is porn doing on the tablet of a person who calls themselves Christian?" Do you know some people carry paper Bible about in order to deceive? Our humility and intention matter!

I hope you know that when the Bible refers to books, it's referring to scrolls that were used then and not the binded book you're using today, which was invented thousands of years after the bible was written . As far as the Bible is concerned, the word "book" can mean scrolls, binded books or electronic books. And what makes you think the book of life won't be a very advanced technological device for storing the names of people.

I said earlier that technology are made for an imperfect creature like you. God really condemn the creativity of man and set a limitation to it, because

Because, what?

Let me point out that everything about life is technology, the way we plant food, the way we harvest, the method we use for travel, the way we build houses, things we produce and how we use them, everything. Technology is "The organization of knowledge for practical purposes" English 2.4.

If not for GOD-approved man's creativity, only very few people could own the Bible because it'd be extremely difficult to print enough and distribute.

The only thing GOD is against is, disobeying His Word. God is not against creativity, instead, He calls us onto dominion and authority.

Genesis 1:26 ESV
Then God said, “Let us make man in our image, after our likeness. And let them have dominion over the fish of the sea and over the birds of the heavens and over the livestock and over all the earth and over every creeping thing that creeps on the earth.”

Psalm 8:6 ESV
You have given him dominion over the works of your hands; you have put all things under his feet....

And that technology would include binded books. I'm sure you know it's called Book of Life, and not called Scroll of Life,even though it's actually scrolls they were using at that time.

My point is, book can mean anything from scrolls to binded books to any other means of storing information. Let's not get hung up on letters and forget the spirit of the Scriptures.

God is not against technology. We think he is but he's not. Otherwise he won't endow us with intelligence to built tools and technologies.

Whoever says GOD is against technology simply doesn't know what technology is! Technology is knowledge, how we do things and improve life.
