Police say two men were caught flouting the Eighth Commandment when surveillance video captured them stealing nearly $500 worth of Bibles from a Christian store in Massachusetts.
The Republican newspaper reported on Wednesday that images shared by police show the men lifting eight Bibles from the Morning Star Christian Store in West Springfield on April 23.
Police have not identified the men and ask that anyone who recognizes them from the images to contact police.

This is one of the stranger stories I have read today.
Paul Philippi says
If they confess I’ll buy the Bibles for them!
Todd says
LOL, awesome reply! I’ll share the cost with you!!
Roger Capettini says
Today’s “Christians” have demonstrated in a multitude of ways that they don’t give a damn about the teachings of Christ, so it doesn’t surprise me at all that today’s “Christians” would steal anything — even bibles.
Todd says
That is a broad statement to make about a large group of people! It shows that you have the common sense of a door knob! Oh, may God bless you brother!
Ann says
Roger,
You obviously don’t know the Christians that I know!

Bibles are not to be sold anyway. If you ever have to purchase a king James bible go to the dollar tree store. That is if your church does not give them to bible study students. The sad thing is the two shoplifters likely stole perverted translation’s .
Ella Mae Rawlings says
Apparently they were desperate for them.
I pray that it was to learn more about
God and Jesus, and perhaps enter into a
personal relationship with Jesus.
If that’s the case, PRAISE GOD!!
Anyway, in the end God will see that
justice is done. So don’t worry about it
