An ODE to the Electronic Bible

The noise is heard in churches.

Who is this usurper?

Who is this enemy?

How dare he try and replace me!!

Please all sign this petition banishing him into oblivion.

I was the cause of the reformation

Which brought renewal to Christianity

Both in the Protestant and Roman Catholic churches

I am the written word of God

I go by the name The Paper Bible

There is no other

No you cannot have any other

BUT ME

I am not the enemy

I am your friend

I have made it possible for readers to access a cloud of resources

No more hunting through dozens of books

Go right to the issue at stake in a hundred books

Harness the power of google

Harness the wisdom of ages

Harness the wisdom of continents

I serve you to provide you wisdom

I am YOUR SERVANT

I have made it possible for readers to carry their notes

From Bible to Bible across time

No more searching for it across 10 bibles

No more tedious transcribing of notes

No more lost notebooks with your wealth of notes

It is all on the cloud for me to find wherever I am

I give you the Greek tenses at the stroke of a key

I give you the Hebrew root to understand the true meaning

It is there in the cloud

I have made people into Bible scholars

I have made people into Bible carriers

I am the ELECTRONIC BIBLE

I am not the enemy

I am the next generation

Do not banish me like the church did to Galileo

Do not banish me like the church did to YOU in the past

I am your friend

Will you accept me?
