What will it take for Logos to get going on the Fire Bible? Disappointing and frustrating that it is still not available.
You and me both. I've been begging Logos, literally for years and years, to make this resource available. Other Bible Software companies have had it for many years now, why can't Logos secure this? It makes absolutely no sense to me. The only thing I can conclude is that they don't really care much about their Pentecostal/Charismatic customer base. It's not like this is some ultra rare title. It's as mainstream as it gets in the Charismatic community. It's literally THE study bible for the largest Pentecostal denomination on the planet (A/G).
Does the New Spirit Filled Lfe Bible fit the bill? I am not familiar with it but may buy it.
No, it really doesn't fit the bill. I own both resources in hardback, and the differences are actually quite pronounced. The "New Spirit-Filled Life Bible" is more Charismatic in its theology. Prosperity gospel, Word-of-Faith, etc are all part and parcel with it. The "Fire Bible" (formally "Full Life" & "Life in the Spirit") is solidly conservative Pentecostal in its theology. They are actually world's apart.
I once more urge Logos/Faith Life to make the "Fire Bible" a top priority, so that its Pentecostal customers have this valuable resource at their fingertips. It's indispensable.
It's time to revisit the Fire Bible. Let's not give up hope. The FIRE Bible by Donald Stamps is so much more useful than Swaggart's "Expositors Study Bible" which Logos offers (that Bible has the notes placed in RED in an interlinear manner)[:(] The Fire Bible does so much more so much better. It has copious notes, charts, and illustrations. One chart I'm aware of has "prophecies about Christ" in the Old Testament. The commentary on Acts 2, 1 Corinthians 13, and Acts 10 are from a classical pentecostal perspective. This should be a flagship resource for the Pentecostal/Charismatic base package.

I'm all for the Fire Bible, and I don't quite understand why it is so hard to get in Logos either.
I'm curious though as why the comparison with Expositors Study Bible (as far as the push for Fire Bible)?
I have read portions of this- its no big deal- just use the nasb update or nasb 77.
The FIRE BIBLE is another resource that should have been in Logos a long time ago. We have been staying tuned for a long time Ben Amundgaard (Faithlife).
This is a resource a lot of people would buy, including me. This resource is available on other Bible Software, so this is quite ridiculous.

Still hoping Logos will add the Fire Bible Global Edition study notes ... it's inconvenient & disappointing to need to use Olive Tree alongside Logos.
Logos User Request votes is up to 188 votes now, please add yours at:

The Fire Bible is divided into three parts. Part 1 is about the history of fire and how we have used it throughout time. Part 2 is about the different types of fires and how they are created. And finally, Part 3 is about the different ways that we can use fire to our advantage
A certain competitor has the Fire Bible study notes on sale for $20 (regular price $40). Logos' price of $50 seems a bit pricey, Logos should consider coming more in line with their competitors.
