Why do I use the Common English Bible

My bible of choice is the Common English Bible in my daily reading and time alone with God. On reason is that my goal as follower of Christ is  to make disciples of Christ of all people. Paul explain it this way in 1 Corinthians 9:20-22

^"20 I act like a Jew to the Jews, so I can recruit Jews. I act like I’m under the Law to those under the Law, so I can recruit those who are under the Law (though I myself am not under the Law). ²¹ I act like I’m outside the Law to those who are outside the Law, so I can recruit those outside the Law (though I’m not outside the law of God but rather under the law of Christ). ²² I act weak to the weak, so I can recruit the weak. I have become all things to all people, so I could save some by all possible means". Because of my Cerebral Palsy  want  to win people over for Christ who have different disabilities including intellectual and learning disabilities. In picking a bible I want them to understand the Gospel and God's plan with ease but makes us  think. Another reason is that I want a Bible that can be used by children and adult. This would people want to understand the gospel and the cross. This is important because the gospel is the only thing on Earth to change our hearts and mind. Not only that but also to get to know about Christ and what he did on the cross.

Why we need to read the Bible

Francis Chan explain why we need time alone with God. H e says that it the oly time to be honest with God and learn the truths of the Bible.

How to Choose the Right Bible?

An important choice that a Christian has to make is to pick out a bible. Most people want a bible thats both accurate but yet understandable. This is a big issue because it noted that more accurate a bible is the less understandable its going to be to the reader. There are three different types of bibles in the way that the translation style is used. One of them is a word-for-word translation. This type of translation is used when the translators translate the bible in Greek and Hebrew into English word for word. Examples of this type of translation include KJV, NKJV, ESV, and NASB. Another type of bible is a phrase-for-phrase. Its when they tranlate the bible by traslating each sentance and used grammer. Examples of a phrase-for phrase bible is NIV,CEV,CEB, and GNT. Another type is a paraphase. Its when thay translate by writting what the main point of the passage is. Examples of a paraphse bible is The Living Bible, NLT and the Message. Another thing to think about is the format is which the bibile is presented. Examples of this include print, braile, audiobook, mobile app, and e-book. In my exprince I used the CEB on a Bible App called YOUVERSION to read the bibleThis is important because the Bible is God's Word and used to learn how to be and live like Jesus Christ.

What is the point of this Blog?

The point of this blog is to bring people with all different types of disabilities to know and be in relationship with our Lord Jesus Christ. This in important to me because of my own journey and struggles with Cerebral Palsy and epilepsy. You see in the bible Jesus was healing people who had disabilities over and over again. This blog would also deal with different issues like "How to pick a good bible for me?" to "How to find a church with the right accommodations for me?". This blog would also deal with my own relationship with Jesus Christ and do in that relationship. Also I am doing a FAQ by the end of this year.
