Book Reviews of Life Application Study Bible NLT (Bible Nlt)
Book Review: A Bible anyone can understand & study
Summary: 5 Stars
This is an excellent Bible - especially for those who didn't grow up in a church background and those who want to really understand what the Bible is saying. The New Living Translation is written using words that are easily understood and the translation is also considered by biblical scholars to be accurate. The study guide materials are a helpful addition, making it easier to dig a little deeper to understand and apply what is in the Bible.Book Review: Want to Open the Secrets of the Bible?
Summary: 5 Stars
Although some will notice changes to favorite passages (the Christmas story by Luke, the 23rd Psalm), by using everyday American English this translation truly reveals how God wants everyone to live their lives.
Its best feature may be the explanatory notes at the bottom of each page that our sons compare to Cliff Notes.

Book Review: Recommended -- Detailed footnotes for nearly every verse
Summary: 5 Stars
I really like this bible. There are definitions at the bottom of each pg. for the hard to understand or rarely used words. Also footnotes for nearly every verse to help understand the meaning. I prefer the KJV over the NIV (although the KJV is written in an older style text) because the NIV takes out certain parts of verses or changes words altogether which change the message. If you want to know what I mean check out Romans 8:1 for one example.
"There is therefore now no condemnation to them which are in Christ Jesus, who walk not after the flesh, but after the Spirit." Rom 8:1
The NIV leaves out the last part which says, "who walk not after the flesh, but after the Spirit." Which is a very important part of the message. As cross-references would agree. We are definitely saved by grace through faith as written in Ephesians 2:8,9.
"For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God: Not of works, lest any man should boast." Eph 2:8,9
However putting this altogether as briefly as I can works do not save us but is the outward representation of our faith. James 2:17 says:
"Even so faith, if it hath not works, is dead, being alone." James 2:17
If you have a bible continue reading that in context from James 2:17-26. Sorry for making this long, I hope this review has helped. If you are looking to purchase a bible I definitely recommend the Life Application Study Bible (KJV). The footnotes will help you understand the message in context if you have a hard time with the meaning.
God Bless!
