| Kids ages 10-14 really like this Bible Mar 3, 2008 |
The kids in my Sunday School Class (Grades 4-6) (Age 10-12) really like this Bible. This is the one they pick (over KidsQuest) to look up bible verses. It is written in very understandable and readable english and it looks really "cool" on the outside. A real winner for this age group!! |

| Words may be different but Meaning is the same Sep 14, 2005 |
I am a children's pastor and have done studies verse by verse which compare this version to the NIV, and NKJ (which I had originally compared with King James). It is easier for young people and new Christians of any age to understand the Extreme Bible, without loosing the True interpretation of what the Bible is saying. It does vary "some" in the wording from NIV and NKJ. BUT NOT from the original meaning-which is the important point. This is NOT a paraphrase type version. Some people feel anything other then King James is not acceptable--BUT remember the KJ itself is also a translation from yet another language which had also been translated! I believe Gods Spoken and Written Word has still made it across most of the translations! In short I would highly recommend the Extreme Bible for Home reading and studies for any age alone or with your NIV, NKJ or standard KJ. |

| Not God's real word Jun 9, 2004 |
Just a note to say that this Bible is not the true Word of GOD. It is showing a Love towards God that is not true but that is just written so that people can feel better about themselves. Sorry for a real believer, this is not good. I suggest reading the KJV - the true version. It is not hard to understand, well it is if you think about it, but these new bibles really are not any easier, just put in a more complicated way. |

This is such a cool bible. You can actually understand what it's talking about better. |
