It’s Monday, less than one week before Christmas, and here are today’s Advent Bible verses from the new Common English Bible translation as I participate in the “Thank You – Come Again – I Promise” blog tour.
Monday – John 7:37-38 and 14:6 (CEB)
v On the last and most important day of the festival, Jesus stood up and shouted, “All who are thirsty should come to me! All who believe in me should drink! As the scriptures said concerning me, Rivers of living water will flow out from within him.”
Jesus answered, “I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me.”

As part of this blog tour, I’ve been given the opportunity by the Common English Bible Committee to offer my readers a free copy of the softcover edition of the Common English Bible for each week of the blog tour (which runs through January 31, 2012)!
For this week, please leave a message on Sunday’s blog post (the link is on the top right hand side of the blog) telling me what you think about this new translation. Please leave your email address also, so I can contact you to get your mailing address.
