Publication of a Bible study: Grace and Torah
A question-and-answer study examining eighty widely held claims about grace and the Torah, on the basis of the full text of each passage and its key original-language terms.
A 501(c)(3) nonprofit Bible ministry
Bible Homes Inc. translates the sixty-six books of the Bible directly from the Hebrew and Greek, publishes studies that extend to the individual words of the original text, and conducts gatherings for the shared reading of Scripture. Its purpose is that the reading of the Word and love for one another be carried out together, in one place.
Mission
Bible study commonly ends in learning alone. The Scriptures, however, require a love that is shown in deed and not in word only. Bible Homes Inc. was established to change this pattern, and seeks a common life in which the reading of the Word and the practice of love are carried out together, in one place.
Following the precedent of the first-century ekklesia, which met in the temple and from house to house, the ministry gathers to read the Word together. It also provides every reader, free of charge, with a text faithful to the original and with resources for understanding it.
Full statement of missionA new commandment I give to you, that you agapao(love) one another, even as I have agapao(loved) you, that you also agapao(love) one another. By this all men will know that you are My disciples, if you have agape(love) for one another.JOHN 13:34–35 · YLV
Little children, let us not love in logos(word) or talk but in deed and aletheia(truth).1 JOHN 3:18 · YLV

The ministry holds that every person should be able to read God's Word as close as possible to the words in which it was first written, and to find a community with which to practice it.
Reading, downloading and listening incur no cost. New believers, pastors and readers outside the church receive the same Bible.
