Websites can be unreliable because anyone can create them regardless of their authority on the subject matter. When writing a research paper, the use of websites should be kept to a minimum and limited to those sponsored by well-known authorities or organizations.

http://www.biblegateway.com/ is an excellent way to search several versions of the Bible by passage (Philippians 4: 6-9) or keyword (prayer and petition).
