They should include a mouse mat.

Low cost versions are free given, particularly through The Gideon Society. Personal Bibles, on the other hand can cost as dearly as the purchaser desires...someone who spends a wealth of time in The Word wants to make sure the quality of the construction is there as well as the authenticiy of The Word.

Many times, Bibles are given free to both believers and non-believers. We don't push our religion on those who ask us for a bible. We simply offer hope and truth. If anyone needed a Bible more than others, it would be a non-believer, or those who have never been exposed to the good news.

There is a cost in making them. I think $60.00 for a good study Bible is a fair price to pay. There are more cheaper made Bibles for someone wanting to hand them out. But no matter which book or Bible there is, there is a cost in preparing and making it.

yes and there are organizations like the Gideons that do give them away for free. But as for buying a Bible you were looking at a good leather bound study Bible with lots of references and maps. You can get much cheaper copies at stores like Wal Mart.

As a non-believer, I DO NOT think that someone should offer me a free bible, unless I ask for it and someone is willing to give it. The bible is a book just like any other book.
I've been offered bibles on the street at my college (!) as part of a Campus Crusade for Christ campus-wide program. One of the reasons I am not a Christian is because I am morally opposed to evangelism. It's offensive to me to try to sell one's faith like it's something that you can *convince* someone to take.

Many of us have, and do. prayer changes things -and people. Christians experience this truth personally and read of hundreds more. If an unbeliever has hardened his heart beyond the scope of humility, and repentance, beyond the ability to search, for spiritual realities, and God, he may have gone a step too far, where there is no turning back. This is scriptural, not my idea. There is group of people that St Paul advised not to pray for, I believe that this is the group to which he refered:- people who have long postponed coming to God often cannot find him when they choose to, or they die younger than expected. "Consciences have been seared as with a hot iron." 1 Tim. 1 :4 :2 The unforgivable sin is stubborn human self-satisfaction & arrogance that prevents repentance. - 1 John 5 : 16-17 Hebrews 10 :26 31 warns of fearful judgment to those who persist in sinning .(those who refuse to come to God for reconciliation) The wonderful Promise that MUST be heeded -- Hebrews 5 :9 "...he (Jesus)became the source of eternal salvation for all who obey him. "Today is the Day of salvation."

First things first. There is no such thing as a "non-believer." Just because I do not believe in god, does not mean I do not believe in other things. Second most people who do not believe in god either have a bible or have read it. Third, there are places that give away free bibles, and they do not focus on those who do not believe in god, they are given to anyone who wants one. Fourth, what is YOUR point? Fifth, No.

There are plenty of free bibles available.
There is a newstand near me that contains bibles, and in big letters on the outside of the stand it says "Free Bibles"
I have seen bibles being given away at Christian events.
Bibles are available for reading in public libraries.
Bibles are available for reading in hotel rooms.
Sometimes the Gideons get pushy and try and give the bibles away in public schools, but thankfully that is being stopped in many places.

The KJV is in the public domain, so it can be -- and often is -- given away for free (with whatever group is distributing it picking up the tab for printing). Most other translations still have copyrights held by their publishers. It's the copyright that one is paying for. Still, there are very inexpensive paperback editions of most translations available.

There are people who do give the bible to non-Christians. I am sure if someone wanted one and couldn't afford it, someone would buy them one. You can buy them for a lot less than $50.
