It’s time to know the Bible, the word of God! And now you can get a free Bible – a free New Testament Recovery Version, a unique study Bible designed with many useful features to help us read and study the Word of God.
All those who have read the Bible can tell that this book – The Book – is not always easy to understand.
For example, there is not just one Gospel but four – why not one, what’s the need for four? The first footnote in Matt. 1:1 in the Recovery Version Bible says,
Christ, as the wonderful center of the entire Bible, is all-inclusive, having many aspects. The New Testament at its beginning presents four biographies to portray the four main aspects of this all-inclusive Christ. The Gospel of Matthew testifies that He is the King, the Christ of God prophesied in the Old Testament, who brings the kingdom of the heavens to the earth. The Gospel of Mark tells us that He is the Servant of God, laboring for God faithfully. Mark’s account is most simple, for a servant does not warrant a detailed record. The Gospel of Luke presents a full picture of Him as the only proper and normal man who ever lived on this earth; as such a man, He is the Savior of mankind. The Gospel of John unveils Him as the Son of God, the very God Himself, who is life to God’s people. Among the four Gospels, Matthew and Luke have a record of genealogy; Mark and John do not. To testify that Jesus is the King, the Christ of God prophesied in the Old Testament, Matthew needs to show us the antecedents and status of this King, to prove that He is the proper successor to the throne of David. To prove that Jesus is a proper and normal man, Luke needs to show the generations of this man, to attest that He is qualified to be the Savior of mankind. For the record of a servant, Mark does not need to tell us His origin. To unveil that Jesus is the very God, neither does John need to give us His human genealogy; rather, he declares that, as the Word of God, He is the very God in the beginning. Matt. 1:1, part of footnote 1
This note helps us enjoy and appreciate our Lord Jesus Christ, and also get deeper into these books, which are part of His biography.

All of these help us grasp the deeper meaning of the Scriptures so that we may know and appreciate our God. These features, along with the accurate and readable translation make it an excellent help for both our personal and group Bible study. This Bible will help you understand more of God’s word and know its deeper meaning.
These days we can clearly see – both according to the world events, the earthquakes, the violence, the racial tension, the virus spreading around, the enmity among people, and according to the Bible – that we are toward the end of this age.
The Bible speaks about these matters and many more.
Especially the New Testament speaks concerning the Lord Jesus – God who became man – and He said that, in times such as these, He gives us His peace (John 14:27).
The Lord gives us His peace, but not as the world gives us peace but rather, He Himself becomes our peace. What is peace? How come in the world we don’t have peace, and the more peace reunions and meetings we have, there is no peace? The more peace treaties are out there, the more troubles there are.
It is time to know the Bible. It’s time to read the Bible, learn what the Bible says, and understand the Bible. What is the Bible speaking about? What is this peace that the Lord said that He will give us? There is a footnote in Phil. 4:7 that says,
The result of practicing fellowship with God in prayer is that we enjoy the peace of God. The peace of God is actually God as peace (v. 9) infused into us through our fellowship with Him by prayer, as the counterpoise to troubles and the antidote to anxiety (John 16:33). Phil. 4:7, footnote 1, Recovery Version Bible.
This peace, the peace of God, surpasses every man’s understanding; if we have the peace of God, this peace will guard our hearts and our thoughts in Christ Jesus (Phil. 4:7).
It’s time to know the Bible. It is time to know our God and not only understand His word but enter into a relationship with Him according to His word. It’s time to know the word of God and understand what God has to say and give to us.
