Customer Reviews

Wonderful!!!!

The Promise Bible is just wonderful, it is the contemporary version of the Bible and it lets younger students of the word understand it more clearly. It is truly a shame that it has gone out of print, because I need another hardcover for a gift.

EASY TO READ

I have never read a Bible that is so easy to read in English and the paper qualilty and fonts are just the right size. I believe it is the best Bible ever produced in modern English. Buy this Bible for yourself and then purchase one to give as a gift. I use this Bible for my writing research then cross-reference with a King James Version for the final draft in my books. I'm sure you will be well pleased with this Bible. That's my recommendation! - James Russell, Author of the Christian devotional book "Walking With The Lord."

FANTASIC

The Promise Bible, is the easiest Bible to understand I got a lot of Bibles but this is the easiest for me to understand. I would recomend it to friends or anybody who is new to the Bible this is the one to get I have read the entire Bible just couldn't put it down it's that good!

Awesome!

Well, I just pick up my copy of The Promise last week at the local bookstore. I'm an handicapp person been looking for an easier Bible to read and I finally found it. Ever since last Wednesday, I haven't been able to put it down I started from scratch cuz I don't want to miss those good descriptions.. Both of my Pastors recommend this Bible. It's even easier then the regular Good News Bible English Version that we use at our church.what I don't like in the other versions when they fancy words like Domestic or Relations at times I forget what they mean. I want to thank the Arthur for coming up with a whole new easier Bible I would recommend this Bible to all my handicapp friends as well. Thank you for coming out with the Promise!

Excellent Translation

This Bible is so easy to read and understand and written with great "intent" so you really get the underlying message God wants you to understand. I have recommended this book in my forthcoming book, God of Miracles (Publishing date: 3/99). I have purchased many of these books and given to friends and unbelievers so they can read the Bible, and they certainly do so with "The Promise." I strongly recommend this book for all those who really wish to "understand" the Word of God and have fun doing so! James Russell/author
