Wednesday evening podcastWhy the bible is True4/6/2022First, if any person tells you The Bible isn't true, and their reason is “it's written by men '' probably haven't read it, because anyone who reads this book will be hard pressed to make the argument that it was written by men. Yes men physically wrote it, but through God speaking to them. It could not be any other way. The scripture goes against everything that is what man desires. The want for revenge, the want for lust, the want for gluttony, and so on. So many of the things we WANT to do and we desire to do that come natural to us without teaching or example from others that God tells us is wrong and sinful and should be avoided at all costs. 28 But I tell you that anyone who looks at a woman lustfully has already committed adultery with her in his heart. Matthew 5:28… No man in his right mind would willingly write this. As any man with a pulse knows.In fact could KILL US! As we see with the seven deadly sins. No, if the bible was in fact written by man and only man and not through the voice of the almighty God the Bible would read much different than what we have today. Not, love your enemies, but hate them and crush them? Or.. Take only one spouse, and do not lust for another, in lieu of taking on multiple partners and feel free to go after the neighbor's spouse if you desire?.... You may chuckle at that last one, but there has been a recent rise and acceptance in American culture to be “polyamorous” or in a polyamorous relationship. It is not hard to see into our own culture and the cultures of ancient civilizations to see that if man wanted to write a series of books to influence the world for all eternity he would of probably chose something far different than what we read today. And thats just culture… The prophecies alone are so mind boggling and strange that one, it makes almost no sense as to why they are there unless you understand why God put them there and two they actually came true… There are over 2000 prophecies that have been fulfilled in the bible, no other religion on earth has propecies that have been fulfilled, in the muslim relgion there is only one in theory, and it was Muhammed claiming to return to Mecah… but that is a far cry from claiming you will die and then raise from the dead in three days like Jesus did. There was no way to prove Muhammad ever returned to Mecah… he just died. Poisoned by one of his wives. There are over 500 eye witness testimonies of Jesus’s resurrection. Prophecies ranging from Jerusalem and its people to Babylon.. Prophecies spoken into existence and fulfilled in many cases over 500 years later. Long after Ezekiel or Jeremiah passed on. AND TO THE TEE, not just kind of or a little but exactly as God spoke it to be. The example of Babylon is a fantastic one. Considered one of the greatest ancient cities ever built. The walls were fourteen to fifteen miles longIt was one hundred and ninety six square miles of architecture, hanging gardens, palaces and temples. Babylon invented an alphabet, worked out problems of arithmetic, and invented implements for measuring time. It was the most advanced nation ever in its time And yet God made a great proclamation against Babylon in Isaiah 13Read from the bible.There are more than 100 specific prophecies concerning babylon's fate. For instance in Jeremiah 51:58, 62 God said the broad walls of Babylon shall be utterly broken, and it shall be desolate forever. The walls of Babylon were massive, 187 feet thick at its base with towers 300 feet in the air. For reference the Great wall of china is much smaller and not nearly as strong and yet it still stand today. The walls of Babylon were completely destroyed. God said that Babylon shall not be inhabited… Today? Its an utter wasteland. Nothing but heaps and huge mounds. Occupied by scorpions, jackals, and snakes. The only thing left to show for the great city of Babylon is the ruins, composed of heaps of rubbish and impregnated with Niter. The lands of Babylon were once so fertile that Herodotus refused to write about them lest people thought he was insane, now they are completely infertile because God doomed that area to perpetual desolation. As it was written. It is now a barren desert, ruins are the only indication that it was once inhabited. Babylon was situated in the most fertile part of the Euphrates valley, and yet twenty five hundred years later Babylon to this day remains an uninhabited waste land. God said the city would not be built again, and it hasn't. **Read the last paragraph from the book. Beyond prophecies being fulfilled there are many other reasons to believe the bible to be true. I challenge anyone to read the book of Matthew and not fall to their knees in repentance to Christ afterward. It is really that compelling. There is absolutely no denying Christ is our savior and lord after reading his story. There are other ...
