 Inspiring Book January 7, 2009
"The Message" is a version of the Bible written in terms used today. It's much easier to understand than the original version and my family finds it inspiring!
Message Bible January 6, 2009
I was a little sceptical at first because the price was so great but the Bible truly is like new. The shipper mailed it right away and I had it within a few days of my purchase. I would definitely use Amazon.com again and highly recommmend it for anyone else wanting a fantastic deal.
The Message December 13, 2008
This is an excellent way to get a clearer understanding of scripture while still staying true to God's word. Good book to buy as a gift also.
 Great King James Backup December 1, 2008
As a reader of the King James I sometimes find it hard to really understand the scripture; by going to the Message Bible I can read the scriptures in todays language that gives me a clearer picture of what the scripture means. One of the many good backups to the King James. I among many wish the print was a little larger.
I Prefer the non numbered version, but still great!!!!! December 1, 2008

The Message: The Bible In Contemporary Language, Large Print Numbered Edition
I love "The Message Bible" I do prefer the original none numbered version, because it showed that it wasn't made as a study Bible.
The Message Bible Version is Great, enjoyably, and educational. but not Really made as a study bible. But instead is written in such a way that it draws great word pictures, it was made for explaining the bible in a more fun and leisurely way, like enjoying the word of God in say, a Park setting, or on the beach and the like. the translation though does not go "off" on the meaning of the Bible. Defiantly one of my favorite versions, but for a study or apologetic version I would recommend the "New King James", "NIV" or the "Authorized King James" Versions.... The message is absolutely wonderful....
Blessings to you all,
Mike Orton
