The Comic Book Bible

Product Information

Scripture does not shy away from it, and neither should God’s people. Also, the Bible provides the answers to every difficult and perplexing human situation. We want people to understand that Scripture has some amazing things to say and helps us make sense of our world and culture today.” Do you think there could be a demand for something like that in Christian circles? I've been studying other comic book versions of the Bible, and as someone who has been writing and reading comics for a long time, they don't tend to be particularly high-quality comics. (See my above desire to make something which is more than a Sunday School teaching aide.)

While these graphic novels have gone down well with teens and young adults, those in prison have also received them enthusiastically. Art explained that the inmates particularly like this format, as the images bring the text to life for them.

(Writings of Enoch.) Acts 20:35 I have shewed you all things, how that so labouring ye ought to support the weak, and to remember the words of the Lord Jesus, how he said, It is more blessedto give than to receive. (Paul is quoting the words of Jesus from a different Bible.) https://kingstonecomics.com/collections/animated-comics/products/101-questions-16-how-do-we-know-god-exists But one kind of comic that it can be hard to come by is religious comic books. For instance, you can certainly find retellings of ancient Jewish biblical stories or Catholic lives of the saints that are in comic book format. But generally these end up being something for children to use to learn bible stories.

John 1:51 And he saith unto him, Verily, verily, I say unto you, Hereafter ye shall see heaven open, and the angelsof God ascending and descending upon the Son of man. (Jesus said these words to Nathanael, but we have no record in our Bibles of Nathanael seeing that.) Preacher is a profoundly adult book, filled with violence, sexual situations and takes on figures like God and the Devil that younger readers or pious people might find difficult. But as irreverent as the book can be, Preacher fits on this list as another book trying to make sense of the stories and figures of the Jewish and Christian religious traditions, and to chart a personal course forward through their strange and often contradictory demands. In the face of the suffering and corruption we witness in our world and churches, Jesse’s insistence that God needs to be found and held accountable for having abandoned the world resonates so strongly. https://kingstonecomics.com/collections/animated-comics/products/101-questions-15-what-does-the-bible-say-about-ghosts https://kingstone.co/collections/kingstone-bible-comic-collection/products/kingstone-bible-volume-5 Of course, once Jesus gets to Earth it’s Sunstar that ends up learning a thing or two about what it means to save people, and also about his and God the Father’s very different experiences of humanity. For God the Father humanity is a constant disappointment, barely worth paying attention to any more. “You abandon thse people and thousands perish. You help them and thousands of people perish,” he tells Sunstar as we see the Jews using the Ark of the Covenant to wage war. “They’re made out of mud! What do you expect?” For Jesus on the other hand, his touchstone is his relationship with childhood friend Shimon. Jesus gives Shimon his father’s carpentry shop after he begins his ministry, but Shimon is soon forced by the Romans to forge crosses, which absolutely alienates him from his fellow Jews. On the road to his own crucifixion, bloody and exhausted, Jesus comes across Shimon again. And he tells Sunstar, “You think the most important thing I did that day was being nailed to some wood?! It wasn’t,” as he hugs Shimon, comforting him.

We love diving into a good story and we know you do, too. Bilibili Comics is the official place for comics, webtoons, manhua,and manhwa you won’t find anywhere else. A Contract with God is the arguably first graphic novel ever written, one that revolutionized the way that people thought about comic stories. Many of Eisner’s subsequent graphic novels, like A Life Force or Minor Miracles, also touch in some way on issues of faith. And the characters in the tenements that he so frequently writes about always have a sort of biblical parable quality—their beliefs are tested, and they discover beauty in unexpected places. But Contract, which Eisner wrote as an attempt to exorcise the rage he felt over the death of his own daughter from leukemia eight years earlier, is a uniquely powerful story. https://kingstonecomics.com/collections/animated-comics/products/101-questions-8-who-were-the-nephilim https://kingstonecomics.com/collections/animated-comics/products/101-questions-19-how-did-all-the-animals-fit-in-the-ark https://kingstone.co/collections/kingstone-bible-comic-collection/products/the-patriarchs-3-joseph-1

Unlike other books, Jesusfreak has no interest in retelling the whole of Jesus’ story or of any Gospel. There’s just one healing in the book and no other mystical acts. And while the book puts Jesus on the path to his death in Jerusalem, there is no passion story here. It’s a move that keeps the book really focused on Jesus and his quest to know who he is. Crafted in a style that is highly reminiscent of pulp books from the 50s, including at times some pretty dense dialogue, Jesusfreak may not be for everybody. But it’s definitely an interesting and creative take on the Jesus story, one that makes you appreciate in a new way the struggle Jesus must have gone through on the way to figuring out who he was. https://kingstonecomics.com/collections/animated-comics/products/101-questions-6-those-who-havent-heard Art makes sure a biblical worldview underpins everything they create at Kingstone, with none of the artwork surrendering to any element of a naturalistic evolutionary worldview. This emanates from his firm belief in the Creator God of Genesis. He believes people can use their God-endowed creative gifts to represent biblical history accurately, staying faithful to what Scripture intends to teach. Preacher is not your typical religious/bible comic. Its story concerns Jesse Custer, a small town broken-down Christian preacher who finds himself with the sudden power to compel people to do whatever he says, and decides this is a gift God has given him. In fact he’s become the hiding place for Genesis, the supernatural infant child of an angel and a demon, whose power is so great it might rival that of God. Learning that God vanished the moment Genesis was born, Jesse sets out across the United States with his former girlfriend Tulip, and an Irish vampire named Cassidy, to find God.
