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)

Animals and plants that lived with the dinosaurs

Dr Carl Werner devoted 30 years of his life checking to see if the fossil record really did support evolution. His clear conclusion is that it opposes evolution.

God Created Earth to Support Life

Our home is unique in all the universe because God marvellously designed it to support life.

Oberammergau and the Black Death

The villagers of Oberammergau gathered in front of a large crucifix. They vowed that if God would halt the plague, they would enact the last week of Jesus’ life, His suffering, death and resurrection, as a thank offering.

When the time had fully come, God sent his son

Everything was in place for the recording and proclamation of the message the Christ would give. When Jesus was born, the “time had fully come.”

Where did Cain get his wife from?

Only three of Adam and Eve’s children are mentioned; Cain Abel and Seth. Cain moves to another land after he kills Abel and marries, so where did his wife come from?

The Religion of Climate Change

The sixteen year old High Priestess of the Climate Change religion, Greta Thunberg, castigates the United Nations for not doing anything to prevent world climate catastrophe which will happen in 2030. Is she correct?

World wide fossil graveyards, some comprising land dwellers, marine creatures, birds and vegetation all jumbled together can only point to Noah’s Flood.

Our world is designed to support life

For this is what the LORD says— he who created the heavens, he is God; he who fashioned and made the earth, he founded it; he did not create it to be empty, but formed it to be inhabited— he says: “I am the LORD, and there is no other.

Prophecies Concerning Biblical Cities: Summary

There are six cities mentioned in the Bible whose future was prophesised. Each prophecy was realised in every way, even in the minutest detail.

Because There Was No Room For Them In The Inn

The picture we are presented with in school and Sunday school plays where children act out the scene of Joseph with a heavily pregnant Mary who was just about to give birth, being turned away by an uncaring inn keeper when they requested lodging, and that he finally relents and points them to a tumbledown stable for Mary to give birth to her baby. A close examination of the scriptures shows this is incorrect.

Wonderful Water

The structure of the water molecule that gives it all the properties which facilitate life and provide for a habitable planet did not, and could not, have come about by the accidental random collision of atoms. It is clearly a product of design by the great and benevolent Creator.

  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.
