The first bible was written on a TABLET and the Ipad is just another TABLET. I can't imagine how the Israelite s felt when Moses stood on the pulpit and preached from the TABLET in those early day. Bros nothing has actually changed its just called DYNAMICS - oyibo.

Make una dey there. The next bible will be reading itself just, touch the verse and the voice will read the verses out for the church. Who said technology no good make e go back to stone age.

The chapters and verses were so numerous that no stone/scroll could consist it. They were all wrapped up into The Holy Bible.
In the same vein the translations of the holy bible are so numerourous that no one paper bible could contain them all. They can all be wraped up into a computer gadget.

I didnt say they were paper neither did i say they weren't hand written, all i meant was that printing it into paper forms or a book (meaning of Bible) was the best and simplest option for reading.

So why are you folks making it sound like if because it is on an electronic device it is no longer The Holy Bible?

It would sound better and better understood if the iPad was made specifically to read The Bible. In church today, the Pastor used an iPad and i noticed the two members beside me were using tablets as well (which i believe were motivated by the pastor), but one of them had a chick showing her booty as his wallpaper, imagine that?

Not surprising for you to respond to this, seeing as it furthers your need for this unnecessary controversy.

Good point but it only calls to question the state of that particular member's heart or are you to tell me it that is ok to carry the paper Bible in your hand and lust inside your heart?

Using an electronic device to read the Bible whether inside the church or in private is not different or are you saying The LORD is
not with you at any time? We know that in this dispensation The LORD no longer dwells in a temple made with hands but in the hearts of men. If it is ok to read it in private then surely there is no crime in reading with in the midst of the brethren.

Acidosis: Some Pastors now want to rely on all the new technological gizmos. Personally, I'll be offended..don't like the idea of Pastors preaching after downloading series of ebooks, and bible pages from the net.

Its nothing but a distraction Satan is using to cause many not to listen to the voice of God. Texting, playing games, surfing the internet, etc., but if you have the Bible open, you cannot just push a button or touchscreen and surf, etc.

Imaging praying and casting out demons with ipad..?

&

Can the members also drop their Bible? atleast they have Bible apps on their phones

The last I checked, CRITICISM was NOT one of the GIFTS of The Holy Spirit.
