Introduction

What?
The Watchwords (German "Losungen") of the Moravian Church (http://www.ebu.de), well-known in many lands in booklet form, daily feature a word of the Old Testament chosen by lot and a suitable word of the New Testament. These bible words are available for computers also: over the web and for the operating systems DOS, Windows, Linux and some others, in various languages. The programs are free of charge (!) and can be used as a text display program, and, for some operating systems, as a screen saver. In this way you can be reminded of the words of Scripture as you work with your computer, as well as incorporate these texts into a document (a letter, for example).

God may use the watchwords to speak to us: he comforts or corrects us and makes us thankful. The watchwords are not an oracle having the right advice for every situation. The watchwords are helpful because they are bible words. They cannot replace the bible. Reading the watchwords unites Christians all over the world. But the true union of Christians is in Christ - including Christians who do not read the watchwords.

Who?
We are not the Moravian Church. We are engaged individual Christians who get the watchwords from the Moravian Church by license. We create various computer programs, translate watchwords texts, integrate and distribute them.

When?
The program packages contain the watchwords texts for one year. The packages for the year to come are available in December.
