NIV Waterproof Bible: Pink Brown Floral


Waterproof • Durable • Coming October-1st-2009

The NIV Waterproof Bible is 100% Waterproof versatile in any environment. This Bible is designed to be tough and durable. The text below was taken from the NIV Waterproof Bible.

A Message From The Creators of The Waterproof Bible:

"The waterproof Bible originates from our desire to take God's Word into all of His creation, regardless of the weather or circumstances. That is why the WATERPROOF BIBLE is completely waterproof and durable, dries quickly, is much stronger than paper, and adapts well to all extremes or reading environment (on a rainy camp out, in a coffee shop, even in a hot tub!). Just as a frog lives on land and in water, the WATERPROOF BIBLE thrives in any situation or climate. In fact, it's the most durable Bible on earth. It features the complete text of the New International Version (NIV)- today's most read, most trusted modern English translation. Wherever life takes you carry the WATERPROOF BIBLE and Be Inspired. Any Where."

~Your Friends- Michael, Bobby and Anna

How to care for your Bible:
This Bible is adversely affected by temperatures above 150* F. If you live in a hot climate do NOT leave this Bible in the car. If this Bible freezes while wet thaw before opening. Water will cause the pages to stick to one another, but once dry they will return to their original condition. The DuraBook format can be dried with a towel or by standing on the spine with the pages up. Petroleum products can cause the ink to smear so keep it way from all such products.

Endorsements:
"It's refreshing to see the Scripture available in such a durable format. The Waterproof Bible ensures that even on you wildest adventures, God's Word is with you."
~ Margaret Feinberg, Speaker & Author of Scouting the Divine: My Search for God in Wine, Wool, & Wild Honey

My Personal Opinion
The durability of this Bible is very impressive, its amazing that this edition is totally water proof. I love that this Bible can be washed off with out damage. I have always said that someone should publish a waterproof Bible. I am thankful that Bardin & Marsee Publishing has finally made this a reality. This would be a good edition for someone with severe allergies, because the allergens can be rinsed off. I recommend this Bible to anyone looking for a durable Bible.

The ink is 100% waterproof, but some of the ink did smear when I touched it after using hand lotion (Waterproof not lotion proof). Personally I don't see this as a problem, but I thought it would be a good idea to point this out that way people would know to wash their hands before touching the ink. I would like to note that the text is still very readable.

100% Waterproof New Testament! The Outdoor Bible - Sportsman's Edition: Published by Bardin & Marsee Publishing



At first glance this New Testament looks like an ordinary Sportsman's Edition, but in reality it's any thing but ordinary. THE OUTDOOR BIBLE® Sportsman's Edition is 100% waterproof, and weatherproof inside & out. It can be rained on, snowed on or dropped in a lake without being damaged. When I first read this on the publisher's website I was more then a little sceptically. I have tested this New Testament for myself, and have found that this it is not only 100% waterproof but also the most durable Bible I have ever seen.

How to care for your OUTDOOR BIBLE®
THE OUTDOOR BIBLE is adversely affected by temperatures above 150* F. If you live in a hot climate do NOT leave this Bible in the car. (remember what happens when you leave a VHS tape in the car.) If the THE OUTDOOR BIBLE® freezes while wet thaw before opening. Water will cause the pages to stick to one another, but once dry they will return to their original condition. The DuraBook format can be dried with a towel or by standing on the spine with the pages up. Petroleum product can cause the ink to smear so keep it way from all such products. The ink is 100% waterproof, but some of the ink did smear when I touched it after using hand lotion. Waterproof not lotionproof. Personally I don't see this as a problem, but I thought it would be a good idea to point this out that way people would know to wash their hands before touching the ink. Though I can't see sportsmen using hand lotion, but you never know maybe their wives or girl friends do. I would like to note that the text is still very readable.

About this Translation
The King James Version (also known as the Authorized Version) is viewed by many as the most beautiful & purist translation of the Holy Bible. The King James Version is also very poetic, especially the psalms. 2011 will mark the 400th anniversary of the King James Version, which was published in 1611. There is certainly a lot of history behind this translation, the history alone would require several posts. To find out more about about the history of the King James Version please go to http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/KJV

My Personal Opinion
I've always said that someone should publish a waterproof Bible. I'm glad that Bardin & Marsee Publishing has finally made this a reality. A waterproof Bible is not only a good idea for outdoor use, but is perfect for someone with severe allergies. If you have sever allergies, and asthma you know that just a small amount of allergens can cause an asthma attack. (which isn't fun) I've had many books that I wish I could rinse off. Especially my old Bibles, which I cant use any more because of allergens. I love that if this Bible gets allergens on it, I can just rinse them off. I absolutely love the God's Country® Late Season cover, which matches very well with my woodland camouflage purse too cute. The size & weight of this Bible makes it easy to travel with. Even though I'm not a Sportsmen, I have really enjoyed the features of this Sportsman's edition. (especially the hymns) One day I would like to see the Revised Standard Version- Catholic edition or the New King James Verison in this type of format.
