Hi MorningGlory. Thanks for your encouragement.

Hi The-Patriot 2016. Thank you for your reply on Bible versions and your support for a New Christian forum.

Hi. Could we please have a forum for New Christians? I've read through the forum headings and there is one for Seekers but not one for New Christians. I have questions that would seem simple to many other members but I would like answers for these being a New Christian. For instance I asked a question in the General discussion forum about what Bible version. This question has been there for over 1 day and has had 11 views and 0 replies. I have searched for this answer on the internet and have read answers but these have been from one person writing an article not from many people. I would definitely appreciate a forum for New Christians for my questions to help me learn and grow as a Christian. Hopefully other people will benefit from it too.

I'm a New Christian and bought my first Bible a couple of months ago. The sales lady didn't give me much guidance and I ended up buying the NIV version. I've read a few posts on this forum that have made me wonder if I have bought the wrong version. I had thought about the KJV but thought the older language would possibly interfere with my understanding. I'm happy to buy another version if it is more accurate. What Bible translation do you recommend and why and/ or should I buy a study Bible and if so what version? Thank you for your help.
