BRG Bible

The Blue, Red and Gold Letter Edition of the Holy Bible, or BRG Bible, is an American translation of the Bible which describes itself as 'an advancement of the “Red Letter” Bible popular among many for over 110 years'.[1]

Red letter bibles traditionally printed the words spoken by Jesus, commonly only while he was on the Earth, in red letters. An 1899 edition of the King James Version created by Dr. Louis Klopsch adopted this practice. The BRG Bible uses blue ink for the spoken, quotable words of God the Father, red for the spoken words of Jesus and gold for references to the Holy Spirit.

This edition was created by Scott Johnson, the preacher for the East Faulkner Church of Christ in El Dorado, Arkansas, and published by BRG Bible Ministries.[2]
