If it gets the good news out to people, and those people give their lives to Christ, then I am all for it. Those that believed are command to preach the gospel to all of creation, and I am sure God allows them to use their creativity to do so. Influenced by the extreme displays that adolescents are inclined to perform on a bicycle, especially when showing off. "Coals and coke" (broke) As flower buyers have to keep very early hours to buy their produce at Covent Garden flower market. "Fisherman's daughter" (water) But how successful these versions are at doing that is another question. The makers of the Bible Illuminated claim it has increased sales of Bibles by 50% in Sweden - though we are not told over what timescale. A version that could achieve such figures in the UK would be one of the most surprising Bibles yet. It is. Mike Coles is head of RE at a secondary school in Stepney, London. When he moved there 15 years ago, he fell in love with rhyming slang and spiced up his lessons by rewriting parts of the Bible, like a missionary of yore, in the native lingo. The saucepans (saucepan lids--kids) apparently loved it.Epistle of Jude• Epistle of James• Epistle to the Hebrews• First Epistle of John• First Epistle of Peter• Second Epistle of John• Second Epistle of Peter• Third Epistle of John• As no cake can be eaten that has not been given (by a shopkeeper) and taken. Cake also means money, as in "a cake of notes" that also needs to be given and taken. "Helter-skelter" (an air-raid shelter) At first the Bible was a collection of scrolls, then illustrated handwritten volumes. When printing was invented they were produced in Latin with pictures. Later they were published in plain closely printed text, in the common language, to get them into as many people's hands as cheaply as possible." As I'm an artist as well as a Christian, I like them. One of our Sunday school kids has a manga bible. I've also bought a version of the Graphic bible. People are more likely to read a glossy magazine format, than something too wordy. As long as general doctrine isn't compromised.

Book of Daniel• Book of Ezekiel• Book of Isaiah• Book of Lamentations• Books of the Minor Prophets• Book of Jeremiah• Acts of the Apostles• Gospels• Q gospel• Gospel of John• Gospel of Mark• Gospel of Luke• Gospel of Matthew• He, however, welcomes it with open arms. "You have to understand that what we think of as the traditional serious-looking leather-bound Bible is actually a relatively new format. In the Middle Ages, picture books - with people in contemporary dress - were the way most people read the Bible. Mary Magdalene• New Testament• Mary (mother of Jesus)• Joseph of Arimathea• Paul of Tarsus• Good Samaritan• Authorship of the New Testament• Magi• John the Baptist• Principalities and powers• Joseph (husband of Mary)• Nag Hammadi library• Messiah• Jesus• Gospel of Barnabas• Peter the Apostle• Pontius Pilate• Judas Iscariot• Book of Revelation• I'm sorry Sharon, Croydon thinks it is sacrilege. I'm a Methodist preacher and am very happy for the Bible to be presented in any way that enhances interest and understanding. I think God has a sense of humour, too.The drink. Based on the imploring of ladies who, when asked to "have another", replied that they "didn't ought".

"Rats and mice" (dice) Soederberg's attempt is clearly not altruistic, a businessman looking for his slice. Hence the easy triviality of his and other versions mentioned. It hardly matters to the Church, they don't believe half of what the Bible teaches. Didn't the main character of the Bible teach: "you received free, give free"?

Referring to the speed required to run to such a refuge and the fact they were often underground. "In and out" (snout) Douay-Rheims• Jefferson Bible• King James Only• Septuagint• Vetus Latina• Bible translation• Annotated Bible• Since people sentenced to that 19th century punishment could not keep still for a second. "Clever mike" (bike) This one got the seal of approval of Rowan Williams's predecessor George Carey, who grew up in London's East End, so must have known what he was rabbit and porking about.As a box of toys, particularly a new one given as a present at Christmas time, causes a great deal of noise to be made. "Can't keep still" (treadmill) The rhyming slang version of the Bible was written by Mike Coles, an RE teacher in Stepney, and started life as stories he told to his classes. In it, Jesus feeds "five thousand geezers" with "five loaves of Uncle Fred and two Lillian Gish". The Lord's Prayer morphs from "For thine is the kingdom, the power and the glory" to "You're the Boss, God, and will be for ever, innit?" Referring not just to the famous London store, but to "derry" as to "have a derry on" meaning to dislike, referring to "down on", meaning prejudiced against, from Derry Down in Ireland. "Didn't ought" (port) For which a long indulgence can have a considerable effect upon the skin. "Pleasure and pain" (rain) The market stall holders felt that the sooner the boy stopped reading books and gained practical experience the better. "Merry-go-round" (pound)

The publicity for me was just all great fun, and the kids loved it as well, with lessons being filmed, children being interviewed... and then the book was finally published there was even more publicity. I remember being well looked after by Karen Laister from BRF. As I say, I just found the whole time such fun. An effeminate man, suggestive either by their neatness of dress, or by "powder puff". "Cop a flower pot" (cop it hot) To get into serious trouble. Suggested by the effect of a flower pot dropped from a window above on to someone below. "Crowded space" (suitcase)I'm from Turkey. I wish they would do the same for the Koran, make it more friendly and easy to read with lots of photos.
