Hi everyone, I am embarrassed to ask this but I am having problems understanding Genesis 1. Would someone please clarify it for me? On the first day, God created light. However, on the fourth day, God created the sun, the moon, and the stars. Would light not be the sun? I am really...

Just wondering which NIV study Bible you guys like the most, or would recommend to others.

Ecclesiastes is one of my favorite books of the Old Testament. It's all about vanity and how trying to live without God will cause you to be miserable. I have several Bible translations, and almost every single one translates to the word vanity (ESV, RSV, and NRSV for sure). However, for...

Hello!! I am about to purchase a new Bible and they have both the NLT and NIV in the kind I want. I own one NIV but I have never had an NLT. I can't decide if I like the way the NLT reads so I am having a hard time deciding. I also am about to buy a study Bible that is NIV and I feel like having...

I'm not 100% sure that this is the best forum for this question, so my apologies if it's wrong. A bit of background: I grew up on the NIV (1984). When I came back to faith I read through the Bible in the TNIV, but switched to the NLT. Last year I felt I should move back to the NIV (I am now...

The NIV Exposed by Dr. Ken Matto Many churches and Christians are now using the New International Version (NIV) and many believe it will replace the King James Version. We are seeing this come to pass at an alarming rate but the purpose of this study is to let the NIV be its own spokesman in...

Try Answering These From Your NIV By Rex L. Cobb INSTRUCTIONS: Using the New International Version Bible, answer the following questions to this NIV quiz. Do not rely on your memory. As the Bible is the final authority, you must take the answer from the Bible verse (not from footnotes but...

So my bible is falling apart and I don't know how to fix it (the pages are separating from the spine and the front cover from the spine of the cover) so I thought it would be good to get a new bible. Specifically I saw this bible at a Christian store a while back that was, as far as I remember...
