A Defence Of The Bible

The heavens declare the glory of God.

Psalm 19:1

The Bible is infallible and inerrant;
we can trust it with our lives.

The Bible is intellectually credible
and historically defensible.

The Bible is an account of actual history.

A good rule of thumb;
People who attack the Bible are always wrong.

The Bible is the only standard of moral values.

History has shown that the Bible’s Ten Commandments
are the best set of rules for a society to live by.

The Bible was the basis for the Magna Carta
which was written by the church
and signed by the king in London in 1215.

The Bible was the basis for the American Constitution.

Only the Bible has prophesies that have been shown
to have been 100% correct.

The Bible was the first book to be printed by
Johannes Gutenberg after he invented the
movable type printing press.

The Bible is undisputed best-seller of all time.
Best estimates put the total number of Bibles printed
to be in excess of 4 billion.

The Bible has been translated into in excess of
2,000 language groups which cover over 90%
of the world’s population.

The Gospel Message

Everyone is a sinner; there are no exceptions (Ecclesiastes 7:20; 1 John 1:8-10; Romans 3:23).
The punishment for sin is death, both physical and spiritual (Genesis 2:17; Romans 6:23; James 1:15). Spiritual death is a separation from God (Genesis 3:23; Isaiah 59:1-2) also called the Second death (Revelation 21:8).
God came to earth and lived in the form of Jesus the Christ, the Second Person of the Trinity, and died both physically (John 19:30) and spiritually (Matthew 27:46) and in doing so, paid the penalty for the sins of all people.
All people who accept Christ’s gift by believing, and are committed to Him, will not die spiritually (Romans 8:10) but will be alive with Him for all eternity (John 3:16, 5:24; Acts 16:31; Romans 10:9; Ephesians 2:8-9).

Steps to becoming a Christian

Admit your need of forgiveness
If we claim to be without sin we are only fooling ourselves and the truth is not in us.
If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just and will forgive us our sins. (1 John 1:8-9)
Believe in Jesus Christ
Everyone who calls on the name of the Lord will be saved. (Romans 10:13)
Commit yourself to God
Seek God’s will in all you do and he will show you which path to take. (Proverbs 3:6)

Isaiah’s Seal, has it been found?

There is good evidence that the seal found belonged to the prophet Isaiah; it was found in the right place and in the right archaeological period. But it is broken in half and definitive assignment is impossible.

Hezekiah, Judean king

The evidence that exists of his reign, associates, projects and the events that occurred during his time, is very strong and it confirms the integrity of the Bible.

Louis Zamperini

From an Olympic competitor to a brutally treated prisoner of war, to a drunkard racked by post-war nightmares to a new life in Christ free from his tormentors; all in the remarkable life of Louis Zamperini.

Brick making in Egypt by Hebrew slaves

The evidence presented, shows clearly that Hebrew slaves made a quota of mud bricks with straw, exactly as the Bible states.

Common expressions that originated from the Bible

The Bible was so much a part of people’s lives that many of the expressions it contained, became a common part of speech. As shown, some going back to Wycliffe’s Bible of 1382.

Transgender Politics

Transgender politics is sweeping through western nations like a tidal wave. The idea is that gender is fluid and that the brain determines gender. But biology says differently.

Prophecies Concerning Biblical Cities; Nineveh

These prophecies, like the others pertaining to biblical cities, are not vague, but precise. When Nahum and Zephaniah were writing under the influence of the Holy Spirit, that the the great city of Nineveh would collapse due to water inundation, and that wild animals would roam through its derelict structure, They too would think that it would be impossible.

  Thank you for your comment Richard. You are correct, the reference should be to Romans 1:20. It has been corrected for the next printing.
