The Holy Bible via SMS
The Holy Bible, the world’s best selling book is now available through the invisible (spiritual) airwaves. Cicero once said, “O tempora! o mores!” in reaction to the changing times. It appears that every hundred years or so, the messages we adhere to the most are always taking the form of new and improved media. From the Dark Ages where cloistered monks copied the Bible verbatim, to Gregory the Great (the real inventor of the space bar), the Word of God has taken a new form - SMS.
Some examples of Bible verses from the Contemporary English Version (CEV) translated to SMS or text by the Bible Society in Australia.
In da Bginnin God cre8d da heavens & da earth. Da earth waz barren, wit no 4m of life; it waz unda a roaring ocean cuvred wit dRkness. (Genesis, chapter 1, verses 1-2).
God luvd da ppl of dis wrld so much dat he gave his only Son, so dat evry1 who has faith in him will have eternal life & neva really die. (John, chapter 3, verse 16).
U, Lord, r my shepherd. I will neva be in need. U let me rest in fields of green grass. U lead me 2 streams of peaceful water. (Psalm 23, verses 1-2).

If you like the Bible via SMS… we have launched the Bible on the majority of the BREW carriers in the US and in Latin America. We are also about to launch the Bible on J2ME and this version will include both English and Spanish versions of the bible.
