No keep them... or give them to someone if you can.My little girl goes to a Christian school and they have shirts with verses. The reason why I didn't get one is because I'm not sure if ripped/tainted is offensive. I compare it to the American Flag, I feel offended when I see it ripped and ruined and still up. I believe that it should be properly disposed. To show respect.
Speaking of dispose, how do you properly dispose a Bible? Just throw it away? Is that wrong?
Personally I just couldn't through out a bible. I would give it away to someone I met who needed one, maybe a homeless person who would be grateful for God's word and comfort. There is someone out there who needs it. Pray and God will lead you to them.My little girl goes to a Christian school and they have shirts with verses.

Well my doberman ate my bible when he was a puppy. I threw away the non-salvageable parts. It's just paper with words; Gods word lives inside of me and is Jesus! The Bible is just a way of reading/seeing/hearing it.Ok. Sorry.. let me clarify my question. A bible that was torn and ruined/ripped already, water damaged.. I would NEVER just throw away a Bible.
They tried to give me a hard time about bringing my bible to work and having it open while I worked. So I just took one of the cheaper ones I had and took out the pages I wanted to study while I worked...I love Isa.. Some seen this and said "I would not tear the bible up like that" I said God had rather us know it and live it than to try to keep it in a book for show. He said I think your right.. I keep my old bibles as reminders and if I need to take a page and put it in my pocket... I think all who love the truth in our bible know how to honor it as they should. I even hug mine sometimesWell my doberman ate my bible when he was a puppy. I threw away the non-salvageable parts. It's just paper with words; Gods word lives inside of me and is Jesus!

Don't get me wrong I love my Bible! But Gods word stands regardless of the state of the book.
Idk..is that wrong of me?
