The Bible

The word Bible comes from the Greek word for book - "Biblion" and has come to be used to refer to the complete collection of documents acknowledged by Christians to be inspired by God.

King James Version of the Bible

The King James Version (KJV) is an English translation of the Holy Bible, commissioned for the benefit of the Church of England at the behest of King James I of England. First published in 1611, it has had a profound impact on not only most English translations that have followed it, but also on English literature as a whole. The works of famous authors such as John Bunyan, John Milton, Herman Melville, [[John Dryden] are William Wordsworth are replete with inspiration apparently derived from the King James Version. See also the Quick Bible reference section and Other Bible Translations.

Featured Article

A Biography of Saint Peter... Peter the Apostle has been looked to throughout church history as a model. The Roman Catholic church has claimed St. Peter as the first Bishop of Rome, thereby lending legitimacy to the modern day papacy. Peter is widely considered to have been among the "inner circle" of Jesus' disciples (ex. Mark 5.12).
