Holy Bible: New Testament: New Life Version

Rate this book

Looking for a Bible you can really understand? Try the New Life™ Bible, specially designed to clarify difficult words and passages. The New Life Version—used around the world in mission work—is now available as an ebook edition. Containing the complete New Testament text, helpful descriptive subheads throughout, and topical study outlines to further explain the scriptures, this NLV Bible is for everyone. Its limited vocabulary makes it perfect for younger readers, in English-as-a-second-language use, or even for longer-term Christians who just want a fresh perspective on the scriptures.

This unique scripture version, originally designed to reach people who did not speak English as their native language, uses a limited vocabulary of 850 words to simply and clearly share God's truth. For example, the term "justified" is rendered "made right with God," and "blaspheme" is rendered "speak against God."  Ideal for seekers, new believers, or even mature Christians who want a new perspective on the Bible.

Unlike my other brothers and sisters in Christ, I started to read the holy bible from the Old Testament as I didn’t know at the time that it’s better for every Christian to start to read the holy Bible from the holy gospels. It took me a whole year to finish the Old Testament and four months to finish the Mew Testament as I read the verses with their interpretations. I should confess that the whole New Testament are far better than the books of the Old Testament as our Heavenly Father revealed his holy plan for us in the New Testament by sending his only begotten son in this world to go up on the true cross for our sins. Most of the New Testament books are the epistles of the disciples of our Almighty Lord Jesus Christ. My favorite books are gospels without any order and then the book of revelation as it’s as important as the holy gospels. The epistles at the other hand are full of religious commandments and orders that help us to be a good Christian. It’s because of those epistles that I call Christianity a religion and myself as a religious person. I believe that we should act and speak good as we think good, so Christianity is a religion and it’s the only divine and true religion as others are false, even if they seem nice. Thank God for Jesus Christ and Thank Jesus Christ for his disciples and thank the disciples for the Christianity. I love every member of the holy body of Jesus Christ. May we get United until our Almighty Lord Comes Back. Amen

I couldn't finish this. Although I know its just the version of the New Testament I picked, every story was shortened so much I felt like I wasn't getting anything out of it. It was like reading the cliffnotes version. Just not for me.

Interesting version designed to be simple and easy to understand. Only uses 850 English words. Not my favorite, but I appreciate reading new versions for perspective. Read the NT for 2024.

It’s really good. Spoiler alert - Jesus is God. You must be saved. Romans 6:23 pretty much sums it up.
This entire review has been hidden because of spoilers.

Anonymous? Really?? Can anyone rate the bible less than 5 stars? I'm sure not going to be the first to even try that. I believe so I'm not tempting God by rating His word less than 5 stars! Good luch with that one!
