Hi Pepe--Great question about bibles and versions I'm a believer for 50 years and a teacher. So my 2cents advice:
Find a bible you can read, understand, and enjoy.....NIV, NLT, or New King James are easier to read -- as you grow familiar, you can add different versions. (My favorite is ESV). Ask God to help you understand and teach you each time you read. Dont be afraid to write or highlight in your bible.
Start with the Gospel of John, and perhaps read a Psalm or a Proverbs...
Bless you and Godspeed.
My school district also sent notices and procedures instructing how to handle ICE on campus...I deleted.
I read your post and thought of this. I totally agree with you, Noggin, it feels like this standoff will never end.....
Perfect response by JD.
An observation: This El Salvador prisoner seems to be the "drama du jour." Each week, the denizens of the left stir up a new drama to circle around—last week, it was Elon/Tesla. Wonder what is next??
Never negotiate with terrorists.....(or stupid drug addled opportunists)
Well done, Mr President.
praying right now for your brother: healing, and hope --for wisdom and guidance to good care -- for love and support from family--
mad as heck......worked hard all my life and still working at nearly 70
Praying for successful surgery, guide the surgeon's hands and complete healing --in the name of Jesus Christ.
Peace and comfort for your dad....
Amen and God's Blessings to you for all you contribute--
Ashlanddog--Thank you for posting !!! This is so encouraging -Amen!!!
We are in a global spiritual battle.
Hearing about the Spiritual REVIVAL spreading around our nation is so encouraging. The enemy will counter with confusion and chaos--but he won't win.
I also know of many who live in TJ and come here for school, work, etc. Need to put a stop to this....
Again, generalized statements can never accurately reflect the ideology of any group of people. I defend your right to think and speak for yourself. I hope you consider that your generalized thinking may need reconsideration.
This might be a great read for you (and many of us)...

I wish you good day--end of topic for me.
tThrice, Of course, you have the right to your opinion.
Everyone here would agree to that--
I am very sorry you feel that Christians are a "cancer in the country"-- how unfortunate for you.
But, you have the right to feel that way and say it.
Well, you are certainly entitled to your opinion; perhaps it's better to avoid blanket statements regarding groups of individuals.
There are many good and well-meaning Christian believers.
I know, I can't keep up! Incredible!
The corruption is shocking--I have a feeling we are in for a white-knuckle shock when the truth of all the corruption comes out...
Pompeo fooled me with his "evangelical Christian" persona. He appeared at a few churches in California and talked the talk.
I've learned the hard way not to judge someone by words--but by actions.
Lock him up, throw away the key, and do what needs to be done if found guilty of treason.
I know--it's terrible--did Q say 'biblical"?
Fire is contained and evacuations lifted....
Yay--Great news! Thank you San Diego Firefighters and Cal Fire Crew!
I love that quote! Yes, this is for the future and for our children...
I'm much later to this party but happy to have leaders like you in the front!
Amen and amen to this--thanks for being in the fight :)
This is ridiculous, even preposterous :). I don't understand why "they" are fussing over this piece of human wreckage/ MS13 guy.
Imagine if 1/10th of the effort was put into finding missing children that Byden's admin "lost"
