Bible for the Nations
“Therefore, go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, and teaching them to obey everything I have commanded you. And surely, I am with you always, to the very end of the age.” ESV
God’s Word – to everyone – to every generation- to all the world
For more than 30 years we have been producing and printing New Testaments and Bibles in languages of the world.
BftN has got three pillars – to produce Bibles and NTS in different languages, to produce target group NTs in many languages. We also do Bible evangelization and outreaches.
Printing of New Testaments and Bibles
In cooperation with Christian organizations and Bible societies we print large quantities of high-quality New Testaments and Bibles. We are trying hard to push the printing prices, so that organizations and churches can make it possible to use the editions for evangelization. For years we have been printing Bibles in languages like Farsi, Arabic, Somali, Tigrinya, Pashtu, Romanian, English, Russian, Ukrainian and many other languages.

Target group NTs are a specialty of BftN
The target group NTs, which in the meantime are available in many languages, include, along with the completely New Testament, 128 – 160 four-colored pages but also life stories, contemporary prayers, interviews and information. The NT Editions are directed towards people who don’t normally go to church but belong to a particular group in society. That’s why we have for example NTs for business people, medical doctors, nurses and people from the caring profession, for metalheads, football fans and players, extreme sports people and many more. The Editions of these Bibles are compiled along with partners from these various areas of interest, just like the Truck Church Europe, The Christian Police associations, Sports person calls Sports person, Christian Unions, Biker Church Europe among others.
Here you can see a short presentation about our work. Learn more about the different areas of Bible for the Nation. Our focus is printing New Testaments and Bibles in the Worlds languages. We also do target group New Testaments. For the future we also have a focus on telling Gods salvation plan to children through the Jesus story book.
Bible evangelization – Outreach – Paul Travel Team
All year along with the daily work of producing Bibles, we as a team also have been involved in reaching out to different societies and unreached groups with the Word of God. As we are living with Gods Word – to all people, we are trying our very best – to pack the eternal Word, together with testimonies as excellent as we can. We have been to many places to hand out for example the Biker Bible, the Trucker Bible, the Street Bible and the Metal Bible. Our latest ventures are called Paul Travel Team. Here we offer young people to experience Bible outreach and evangelization together with local churches mainly in middle Europe.

Giving the gospel to the children of the world.
Many children around the world know nothing or very little about Jesus Christ and the gospel. Bible for the Nations has set itself the goal of working intensively in the coming years to ensure that children receive the good news of Jesus. We have developed completely new material for this. "The Book of Jesus". The book of Jesus, which tells the story of God's salvation in a child-friendly way is now available in 30 languages. The Book of Hope for Children is now available in 30 languages, including: Armenian, Arabic, Bosnian, Bulgarian, German, Danish, English, Farsi, French, Italian, Croatian, Latvian, Macedonian, Mongolian, Dutch, Polish, Portuguese, Romanian, Russian, Turkish, Serbian, Swedish, Somali, Spanish, Tagalog, Ukrainian and Hungarian. To this day, Bible for the Nations is working on several projects around the world with bringing the Gospel to the children. Children are the most priority for our future.
The Book of Jesus – a great tool for the worldwide unreached tribes
The Book of Jesus is a great tool to reach unreached tribes, that do not have the gospel in their language yet. It can easily be translated to a local language on hand from the cartoons in the book. We are continually working to translate the Book of Jesus into new small languages worldwide. Please contact us – if you are working with reaching small tribes with the gospel of Jesus Christ.
See the film about the Jesus story book, telling Gods salvation plan for children. It is also suitable for mentally disabled people and even for tribes that still do not have the word of God in their language. The Jesus story book is translated into 30 languages. .
Bible Movement in Sweden
In 2021 we started one of the largest Bible movements in the history of Sweden, handing out a New Testament, The Book of Hope NT to every household in Sweden. Wherever we see a family home, we put a Book of Hope for Children, a children’s Bible telling Gods salvation plan, into the letterbox. We have worked with some local churches, mostly in the north of Sweden. The Bible movement is a cooperation between the Bible mission (Die Bibelmission) in Germany and Bible for the Nations, Germany.
Hundreds of teenagers, families and children have spent their holidays helping us running
up and down stairs in many houses in cities, villages and on the countryside in
Sweden. Every summer since 2021 we have seen people come to Christ. It has been
a great help, and altogether until now, 1,620,000 Books of Hope NTs have been distributed
to letter boxes, and about 250,000 Books of Hope for children. We are
continuing the work every summer. From the 1st of April until the
first week of September every year, we work through the areas of Sweden. Here
are the plans for 2025:Help from Germany
2025
The Bible distribution campaign 2025 is planned in the federal states of Halland, parts of Västergötland and Blekinge as well as in the city of Gothenburg. The biggest challenge here will be the city of Gothenburg with its 604,000 inhabitants.
We are currently preparing to print the first 400,000 New Testaments at a Christian printing company in Japan. We plan to distribute a number of total 800,000 New Testaments and 125,000 children's Bibles for 2025. This will require over USD 1.2 million.Reaching the whole of Sweden– with the gospel of Jesus Christ. We are into our biggest mission ever! We are handing out The Book of Hope, a New Testament with 160 full color pages with strong, authentic testimonies about what Jesus can do in a person’s life. It also contains written prayers, the way to salvation and information. Wherever we see a family, we also add the Book of Hope for children, it is the Jesus story book, with another cover. Take a look at the Bible outreach going on, on its fifth year.

Each one of us can rise to the challenge of being a ‘Bible Distributor’. There are many people in your area who have never owned a NT. You are most welcome to support the Bible Distribution by praying for us and/or support us financially by making a donation.
