1/9/22

BibleGateway is a very very good site and I think it is the best site to read the Holy Bible while at church. You only need to type the books, chapter's number and verse's number(eg Matthew 11:24 or Matthew 11 24), the Google would take you to a page where you see BibleGateway is one of on the top. Unlike other Bible sites which immediately show multiple version, full chapter and verses which sometimes confusing and take times and you can't continue to read to the next chapters unless you type it again and that's a bit of hassle, while BibleGateway take you directly and specifically to the chapter or verse your lookin for, of course you will only see New International Version without any version like King James, NRSV, etc. taking up all over the space and also u can expand to the next chapters and verses if you want to. Also the other sites look like a regular non-Biblical sites with verses arranged vertically while BibleGateway looks exactly like conventional Bible but is much more practical and easy to use. Using conventional Bible is no different with use a non-BibleGateway sites, Conventional Bible is even more easy to use than other sites. So BibleGateway is a very good Biblical sites for those who want more practical and easy use but still feel like conventional Bible. I have recommended BibleGateway to my friends and they love it too. I myself started use BibleGateway 2 years ago. I've been familiar with e-Bibles and Bible sites for a long time but I preferred a conventional Bible rather than an e-Bible or Bible site or that didn't match the Bible I had. There are many Bible sites but in a very different style from the conventional Bible. But when I started using the BibleGateway, I like it so much. BibleGateway has some versions and so many languages from around the world. But if you are an American New International Version will always show up first. Maybe due to Google's algorithm. I also recommended BibleGateway if you are an English speaker. BibleGateway also has Bible app on App store and Play store, but I prefer the web's version cuz I'm used to use Google as my Bible and read and download Bible's pages. So I no longer carried the conventional Bible, only my phone. Some elder sometimes ask me why I don't use conventional Bible, I told em that the Bible on my phone is no different with their Bible. There was an oldman(I'm 23yo btw) he is much older than mr but actually he is my church friend. He told me that my Bible on my phone is not the real Bible and that it also can distract my focus. I said to him That "I just take the advantage of technology like you do, the Bible original forms is papyrus scrolls written and copied by hand and that was before the paper and printing technology we use today was invened." He replied "Okay... You got me young man"... LoL... Sorry for the very very long review. Hope someone would read this, if none then it is okay... God Bless You and God Bless the USA

Tip for consumers:
If you are used to read conventional Bible New International Version and want more practical and easy use, lemme tell you that BibleGateway is very fit with you.

Love the app, hate the pop up ads that are now on there. I would rather you charge me $5 a month...
