In 2 Timothy 3:16, Paul tells us that 'all scripture is God-breathed', emphasising the importance of biblical understanding and application. With the rise of the internet, the Bible is more accessible than ever, and websites are becoming increasingly versatile and sensitive to Christian needs.

biblegateway.com freely offers an extensive range of full Bible translations, including 19 versions in the English language alone, each complete with footnotes and cross-references.

The site is essentially a Bible search engine, enabled through verse, keywords and topic searches. It provides the user with multiple routes to reach their sought passage, and has proved to be incredibly valuable when trying to recall the exact reference or wording of a particular verse.

Passages can be read in alternate versions of the Bible, which I have found to be an incredibly useful evangelistic tool. It not only permits scrutiny between versions, reinforcing scriptural reliability, but can also provide language translations of any chosen verse, which is particularly helpful when ministering or evangelising to those who find English more difficult.

biblegateway.com makes biblical referencing much easier, which thus aids the learning of memory verses. Although not a substitute for daily Bible study, it is nonetheless a useful and comprehensive referencing tool, which can help improve understanding of scripture and increase its application in everyday life.
