Start! The Bible For New Believers, NKJV, Greg Laurie, Editor




I received a book from Booksneeze.com to review, called Start The Bible For New Believers. It is a NKJV Bible that is laid out for someone just coming to know Christ, or may be curious about Christianity. In this Bible, there are pages of writing before you reach the scriptures, written by Greg Laurie, all seeming to be full of biblical truth.

It starts with one of the most important things one should know about Christianity, the Plan of Salvation. Included in that writing is the "Sinner's Prayer". The following pages explain the "Secrets to Spiritual Success". It explains now that you are saved, what you need to do, such as read your bible, have a healthy prayer life, become actively involved in church, giving, and telling others about Christ.

At the beginning of every book in the Bible, there is an introduction. The introduction tells about who wrote that book and a summary of what happens. There are also small sections throughout the Bible entitled Grow, Know, Live, and Learn. In these little sections, there are short summaries and stories, from the Bible, that give you a small lesson, and then tell you to turn to another page if you want to know more.

I would highly recommend this Bible to a new believer, however, I wouldn't say it was solely for a new believer. I would also recommend it for those who want to know how to teach a new believer, kind of like a guide to help you help others. The only thing I did not like about it, was the cover. I felt that for a Bible, it should be a little more sturdy, so I do recommend buying something other than the paperback.
