american bible society good news bible: The Bible Cause John Fea, 2016-03-03 Endorsed in its time by Francis Scott Key, John Jay, and Theodore Roosevelt, the American Bible Society (ABS) is a seminal institution for American Protestants. The group was founded in 1816 with the goal of distributing free copies of the Bible in local languages throughout the world. Today, the ABS is a Christian ministry based in Philadelphia with a $300 million endowment and a mission to engage 100 million Americans with the Bible by 2025. In The Bible Cause, noted historian of American religion John Fea demonstrates how the ABS's primary mission - to place the Bible in the hands of as many people as possible - has caused the history of the organization to intersect at nearly every point with the history of the United States. For the last two hundred years, the ABS has steadily increased its influence both at home and abroad, working with all Christian denominations in the US and internationally, aligning itself whenever possible with the gatekeepers of American religious culture. Over the years ABS Bibles could be found in hotel rooms, bookstores, and airports; on steam boats, college and university campuses; the Internet; and even behind the Iron Curtain. Its agents, Bibles in hand, could be found on the front lines of every American military conflict from the Mexican-American War to the Iraq War. However and wherever the United States developed, the ABS was there. Throughout the last two centuries ABS has never wavered in its mission, and its commitment to be the guardian of a Christian civilization has been proven many times over. |

american bible society good news bible: The New Testament - Simply the Bible The Tree, 2017-12-18 Enjoy an easy to read New Testament for struggling readers, beginner readers and people with dyslexia. This is a large Bible, the size is 8.5 by 11. The font used is Dyslexie. It has a soft cover with a matt finish. There are several styles of covers to choose from. Beginner's Bible, Student Bible, Large Print Bible, Dyslexic Bible and Children's Bible Editor's note: For this Simply the Bible New Testament, we have used the World English Bible (WEB) as our main source, because it is in Public Domain andis a good easy-to-read translation. There were a few areas where we referred back to the more poetic, traditional wording, diverting from some of the terms found in the WEB. One example would be the use of the army of the sky in Acts 7:42; we preferred to use the more traditional the host of heaven. Also, when there was an implied meaning for the use of a word within the context of a passage we took the liberty of stating what the word meant using a few words rather than just a direct single word translation of the Greek, making the text more readable. In all such cases the original languages were carefully checked to make sure that our uses of the terms were in harmony with the reputable Greek lexicons and grammar resources in both printed and digital formats. We also comparedother translations, and considered the wording of other Public Domain translations, such as the King James Version. Therefore Simply the Bible is not a new translation of the Scriptures. We just wanted to produce a readable New Testament, using an enhanced dyslexic font that may take some of the struggle out of reading the Scriptures, for those with dyslexia. To remove distractions, we have also removed the footnotes referencing alternate readings found in Greek New Testaments from which some other Bibles have been translated. For answers to frequently asked questions about the World English Bible,please visit WorldEnglishBible.org. The font used is Dyslexie. Learn more and download at dyslexiefont.com Dr. Dennis H.
