    Brothers & Sisters, my name is David Lee, and I'm an evangelist from Dover, NC. I am currently organizing a large scale tent revival to reach the city of Kinston, NC with the Gospel of Jesus Christ. One of our goals for this revival is that everyone present has the Word of God in hand. We are seeking as many KJV Bibles as we can get our hands on. Many of us have multiple Bibles lying around which we have retired from use. I am asking that anyone who is able to do so please donate any extra KJV Bibles they may have to help us reach Kinston for Christ. If you 2ould like to help us with this goal, or if you would like more i-formation about this ministry, please contact me at [email protected]. I also ask for your prayers over the coming months as we prepare to undertake this task. Thank you, and God bless you all!

    Are you willing to accept and pass out other good versions?

    If there really is an effort to reach the lost,many of whom are from unchurched backgrounds -- the heart of people who want to reach them would know that an accurate modern version --speaking in their own idiom is the best way to go.

    The poster had a simple request - this is not the place to question a simple request.

    Salty, I appreciate your willingness to help. However, I am only seeking KJV Bibles. That being said, I am not interested in starting a debate about Bible versions. Let each man use what he feels led by the Holy Spirit to use. I personally use the KJV,.That is the version I will be preaching from, so that is the version I am seking. If some disagree with this choice, that is fine. We don't all have to agree about which version to use, but please save the debate for the proper place. God bless you all!

    Keep us posted on your progress. I don't have any Bibles to donate- all of my KJV's are well-used.

    I will be praying for your efforts, my friend. My KJV Bibles are in use, but
    I do know that there are sites which either offer them for free or at
    a minimal cost per 100.

    Frankly, I can think of better pamphlets and booklets that would be more effective than a Bible at an evangelistic meeting.

    Cheers,

    Why do people always have to knock the ways some people do outreach. I could see if it was unbiblical but this man asked for bibles not suggestions on what would be best. Good grief people. If you think of a better way start your own meeting and do it. Otherwise pray for this mans desire to get God's word into people hands.

    Just thoughts, not criticism. Sorry you took it so upside down.

    Cheers,

    The Bible Sender, I apologize for the slow reply. I have been busy studying and prepare sermons. I would need them by mid October. Jim, I am not looking to argue about it, nor am I willing to, but for the r3cord, there is NOTHING more effective at reaching the lost or reviving the church than the Word of God. For that matter, nothing else is even 'capable!
