Great Purchase June 18, 2008 This was a great purchase as Bibles go. I gave it as a gift to my father, who is a retired Air Force veteran. Here are some things I observed:
Great Things: - Has a Bible for each branch - Great resources in the back, like prayers of famous leaders like Patton - Attractive, small, and easy to read - The translation is great: it is both easy to read and accurate
Not-So-Great Things: - Not a lot of study guides and comments in the margins (it is compact) - Not a lot of space for writing notes
Overall, I recommend it, particularly as a gift for someone else. I would also recommend giving it to someone who is not a Christian if they are associated with the military.
Very Nice March 29, 2008 This is the nicest looking bible I have ever purchased. It includes Air Force specific passages in the back.
Airman's Bible October 18, 2007 3 out of 3 found this review helpful
This is a great present. I bought it for my brother in the Air Force and who is currently serving in the Middle East. It is compact enough to fit in the cargo pocket of his uniform and it's leather, so it durable.
I SINCERELY PRAY EVERY US BOMBER RECEIVES A COPY, CONVERTS, LAYS DOWN ALL ARMS AND KILLING AND FOLLOWS THE PRINCE OF PEACE October 16, 2007 0 out of 7 found this review helpful
I pray all involved in war read this book, especially the lines in red, to realize war brings only deep sin, death, immorality, lust, injustice, oppression, and eternal and infinite distance from our great God of Love and of Peace whom we find through the blessed word of Jesus Christ, here printed in red. Love one another as I have loved you. Love thy enemy.
I pray each soldier reads this book and weeps, and beats his arms into plowshares, to build peace and feed the children instead of slaughtering them and leaving them orphan, maimed. Saint James the greater writes that religion pure and simple is caring for widows and orphans in their distress, not creating widows and orphans and their distress.
I pray every soldier may read this Good Book and take it to heart and change their ways and study war no more.
Take and read, for this is His Body.
It is not a license to kill. Thou shalt not kill. Thou shalt not steal. Thou shalt not lie.
Love thy enemy. Turn the other cheek. To whomsoever asks your coat give your shirt as well. Do for others what you want them to do for you. Love one another. Repent and follow the divine word which leads unto life, not killing and imperialist warfare for oil.
Please read as well: Pacem in Terris Peace on Earth Encyclical Letter of Pope John XXIII, On the Development of Peoples, Populorum Progresio., Challenge of Peace: God's Promise and Our Response a Pastoral Letter on War and Peace (Publication / Office of Publishing and Promotion Services, U), Jesus the Rebel: Bearer of God's Peace and Justice, Disarming the Heart: Toward a Vow of Nonviolence, Gandhi and King: The Power of Nonviolent Resistance, etc. But best just read this book especially the lines in red and learn why we must study war no more, but to love our enemy, who is our neighbor, and to love our neighbor as ourselves.
This is a great Bible for service people. January 5, 2007 7 out of 9 found this review helpful
This is a great item to present to a person leaving for Basic Training. It is a very high quality Bible, yet small so it can be easily stowed. The slide-tab closure keeps the Bible shut, which is nice when being carried to on-base services or while traveling. The special sections are very encouraging to a service person. I have purchased three of these Bibles (for my son, my daughter, and my daughter-in-law who are in the USAF).
