We are so blessed in the Western World, to still be able to have, own, keep, Love, read, and speak the Bible.
Many countries don't have this privalidge!
If you don't have one and would like one, no matter where you are, go to my profile and message me please!
If you don't have one you and still don't want one, you are at the moment very blind and of a foolish heart!

Yes I have several....and we are truly blessed....
May His words touch those who ask for one...
Lord, make sure the people who need to know do ask for one. And as they read give them wisdom and understanding. In the precious name of Jesus, Amen.

Praise the Lord! May the Lord bless your kindness! Yes, I am privileged to own several in different versions! Some are worn down and well read and I also have extra on hand to give out in case a person needs one or I need a gift to give.I cannot go very long without one. I do have a favorite New International Version, but I also use the KJV and a few other versions. I sometimes like to compare the scriptures in different versions. Keep up your wonderful work for the Lord!

Dear Ladyeagle7,
Yes I do. In fact I own about 50 that I use and I have a number of Bibles that I give away to people.
We most definitely are truly blessed in the western world to have the opportunity and the privilege and yet we take such opportunities for granted.
I first read the Bible from cover-to-cover in 1992 and I found it to be the best thing I've ever done.
May our heavenly Father bless your ministry for His glory!

No, I own one and no, I don't want one. And one of the great freedoms of being in the Western World is the "choice" not to be able to have, own, keep, Love, read and speak the Bible by ones own choice. I do believe in a higher power and I do have "faith". But Christianity is not the only faith out there and there are many others that people are able practice.
BTW I was raised Catholic...

Yes I have the original New Testament before King Constantine Changed so many things in it. You see at that time only the Hierarchy in the Church had copies and the Government officials. SO it was very easy to burn them and make their evil alterations. He took out everything to do with reincarnation, Karma, Vegetarianism,and hell being a temporary place to go. for the real bible google gospelofthenazirenes.co when one points the finger at someone there are three pointing back at them. Be careful who you call foolish and blind.

I have quite a few bibles, and I am so thankful that God has given us His Word to read and understand and to know His will for us. we are blessed indeed.
my favorite is the New Living Translation... no matter what version i am reading, i cross reference it with NLT so i can get the 'meaning' better.
God's word is so available... and waiting for each person to pick up and make their own.... but only God can open their hearts... just keep praying they start to truly seek Him.

Lady: Your offer of providing a copy of the Holy Bible or Holy Book to those, who desire one is noble. BUT; your noble cause becomes tainted by the implication of your statement, as you address those not wanting one as being, "very blind and of a foolish heart". God does the "calling" - not humans (John 6th chapter, verse 44), and to label the "uncalled" as of a "foolish heart", is not a valid claim. God judges those outside the faith ( see: I Corinthians chapter 5, verses 12 & 13).

Yes I own a Holy Bible.

Yes, also a copy of the Qu'ran, the Manichaean heresies, the Popul Vuh, the Bhagavad Gita, the Mahabharata, the Dhammapada, the Tao te Ching, and the Four Noble Truths.
Each book has brought enlightenment -- a wise man said that though there is only one truth, there are many mouths to speak it. May you be blessed with the wisdom to read widely and the humility to learn.
Peace
