Hi is listening to audio bible and reading the bible the same 2 you?? R is one better then the other?
The Word of God is not a layer of papers with writing on them wrapped in leather. The Word is the meaning, and if you can get the same meaning from audio, electronic texts, etc., then you are getting fed God's Word. God says He will write His Word on our hearts and minds- that's not literal, neither is a leather bound book. God's Word is not inked letters.
I knew a lady once who kept a Bible in her car so that she wouldn't get in an accident. The Bible is not a relic or an idol, or a good luck charm, it is just one of many forms to teach us what God wants us to know.
