Online Bible Reviews

I have been using The Online Bible almost since its beginning. Mr. Larry Pearce and his staff have been committed to keep everything updated, adding modules, and devices as technology improved. The Cross Country Store folks have been very easy to deal with as well, not that I have needed to that often, but a couple times I forgot my password and account purchases, and they readily restored those settings. I do have other study apps, but this is my main go-to app when I really need to know something and in a hurry.

I started using this product when it was on a cd for my Macintosh. I still have it on my MacBook Pro, iPhone, and iPad. For my use it is nearly perfect. The only thing I would like to see is more available add ons in the store.

It is easy to learn and very stable.

Lastly, become a premium user. It doesn't cost that much and the developers should get paid. You don't work for free and they shouldn't either. I love OnlineBible.

I use this bible app all the time, especially when looking for a specific verse. It’s much easier to use than pulling out a strong’s concordance.

There are a few things I wish were different:

1. I wish you could swipe left and right and it would go to the previous or next chapter.
2. I wish when you go back to the index that you would still be in whatever chapter you were in and you could click back to chapters and back to books, or have a refresh button to get to the main index page of the books.
3. I wish the search was a little less literal. For example, if I was looking for Proverbs 3:6 and I typed “In all thy ways acknowledge Him,” I will get no search results if it literally said “In all of thy ways acknowledge Him,”

Back well before the internet became ubiquitous, my little local BBS (Bulletin Board System - Bulldog-Eagle Link) took advantage of accessibility between two rival Kansas communities and gave all users access to those in Topeka, the capital city. Online Bible was available to all who would use it. This ended in about 1985. From then “the web” had taken over and OB was still around. Thanks!

The search and cross reference features are top notch. I have only one request. When the cross reference window is open, the quick slider on the right covers a letter or two of the verse making it difficult to read. A very small complaint for an otherwise incredible app.

I have enjoyed using the online Bible since receiving it on 3.5” diskettes during the 1990s. I was overjoyed upon finding it for the iPhone.

I will always remember the amazement in my Pastor’s eyes during a class as he said, “How did you know that!” “That was the number of times the Hebrew word “almah” appears in the Bible. Just one of the many things the Online Bible has helped me to learn, understand, cite, or some combination of all three.

It's SO handy to have access to God's WORD, wherever I am, via my cell phone! It's A BLESSING to be able to look up verses using the search button if I can't remember the reference... and to have access to the Strong's Concordance for any Word in the Scriptures, for which I want to know the meaning in the original language! And OnlineBible is FREE! I'm very grateful to the LORD for having this available for us!

Easy to use, Greek/Hebrew definitions. It’s my “GO TO” bible app and computer program.. The program has much much more than you could ever use in a lifetime/many different versions, commentaries books sermons dictionaries etc.. and it’s free . What a gift to the body of Christ these folks have given. Their reward will be great on that day!!! Thanks guys

OnlineBible is one of my favorite but it could be better if the search feature were more friendly to multi word word searches. If I type in “word, life” I don’t see a single verse that has the two words in it. This addition would make OnlineBible MUCH better! (I have been using Online Bible since 2002.) Thanks for any improvements along these lines.

In one place, I have a whole library of tools. This powerful app allows quick cross-reference, study of themes, a dictionary in Hebrew and Greek, free commentary material, etc. Once discovered, I downloaded it to every device I have. It is worth the time it takes to learn to use this tool.
It’s also possible to become a Premium Member for a monthly donation.

The Online Bible App is a "must download" for every Christian. With it, every believer can do studies of God's Word, accessing word study, search and parallel passage Study Tools that will greatly increase your understanding of the Scriptures. The depth of your study will be limited only by the amount of effort you choose to make, but with any level of effort, your time will be well spent and rewarding!

I use the Online Bible app on my home computer and on my IPhone. Being able to access the Greek and Hebrew meaning of words is a great study tool. With OnlineBible on my phone I always have my Bible with me. I use in almost every day and multiple times during the day. I highly recommend it.

I’ve been using Online Bible almost since it’s inception years and years ago(back in the day when it was on floppy disk, that tells you how long it’s been). It been my main tool for many years preparing my weekly Sunday School lesson. Now I have it on my phone and I can’t say enough about how good Online Bible really is

I have been using the online bible program for many years to write sermons and bible studies. I still have my first blue spiral bound manual. I am installing it on my wife’s iOS devices. This is a great bible program. I have bought it to gifts to friends and family. I highly recommend it.

I have used the OnLine Bible for Mac for about 20 years, which is no longer available. OnlineBible brings similar features to both iOS and OSX (and they sync very neatly ). A welcome tool with a very low learning curve, thankfully. Having used some other Bible apps, this has quickly become my first choice.

I have used this program on my laptop for years and was delighted to see OnlineBible for my iPad. I use it daily and find it a valuable tool in my study of God's Word. Very easy to navigate. The dictionaries and Strong concordance are a tremendous asset. I use it daily and with OnlineBible it travels with me!

I have used this program for years and greatly appreciate how quick, easy and effective it is to use. The design is very clean and simple. I highly recommend it over other programs that are available.

I have used this Bible software for about 10 years. It is invaluable for personal Bible study, preparation to preach at church, Folsom Prison and on my weekly Sunday radio show.

I have tried other Bible software but I am dissatisfied with most because they are too cumbersome and expensive.

I am happy with my Online Bible!

I have been using the OLB since I owned a 486 PC! I can’t remember how long ago that was but there is no set Scriptural versions, commentators, sound ones!!!) I’ve ever see in one “Package” that comes close to the OLB Program

For those who have used the desktop version, OnlineBible is (comparatively speaking) crippleware. That said, OnlineBible is very fast in what it can do, which is to provide a quick concordance list of every occurrence of a given word. And it has Strong’s numbers for original language definitions.
