Why I believe the Bible is truly the Word of God

“I choose to believe The Bible because it is a reliable collection of historical documents, written by eyewitnesses during the lifetime of other eyewitnesses, reporting supernatural events that took place in fulfillment of specific prophecies and claimed their writings are Divine and not of human origin.” — Voddie Baucham

It is the only book of prophecy that has never been wrong. It’s objective description of morals, science and logic wouldn’t make sense without it. No other ancient document is as tested and reliable. The over 65,000 cross references from beginning to end is pretty overwhelming evidence that it’s origin is divine when you consider the many authors over centuries. The Bible was written in 3 continents (Africa, Asia, Europe), written in 3 Languages, (Aramaic, Hebrew, Greek).

It’s a reliable collection of historical documents written by eyewitnesses during the lifetime of other eyewitnesses and they report supernatural events that took place in fulfillment of specific prophecies and claim that their writings are Devine rather than human in origin. At least 301 eyewitnesses were still alive at the time of the resurrection during the letter to the 1st Corinthians was written. There were over 6000 manuscripts and portions of manuscripts within two decades of the original writings.

Scientific methods must be Observable, measurable, repeatable – history is none of these You do not use scientific methods to prove Historical Events. The Bible uses the evidentiary method, which the Bible has been proven over the centuries to be infallible.
