Question

What's the Bible?

Answer 1

The 66 books of the Bible were written in different specific historical situations and at different times. Nevertheless, they do not contradict each other, but every book in the Bible is consistent in its message. It is because God is the primary author of the Bible.

God inspired each and every author through the Holy Spirit to write the exact message He wanted recorded in the Bible, which is the only record of the Word of God Almighty.

Some people insist that the Bible was written by men’s wisdom, but it is utterly impossible for dozens of prophets to write consistently and coherently over such a long period of time. This proves that God Himself dictated His words to them to write the Bible for Him (2 Ti 3:16-17; 2 Pe 1:20-21).


There are so many evidences which proves that the Bible is fact. Scientific evidence is among them.
God created the whole universe with the laws of science. So the Bible is ahead of science.
In the past, science did not prove that the Bible is fact. As science developes, it proves that the Bible is fact.

For example, the Bible has the records about the earth before the science discovery.

Here the following verse depicts the earth as if it took a picture from the satellite.
Job 26:7 He spreads out the northern skies over empty space; he suspends the earth over nothing

To our surprise, the book of job was written about 3500 years ago in the bronze age.
"He suspends the earth over nothing" means that the earth is suspended in space.
In this modern age, it is common knowledge that the earth floats in space.
But, was it also common knowledge in the bronze age?
The concept of the universe was far from the truth at that time.
The ancient people could not even imagine that the earth is suspended in space.
Until 1687 when Isaac Newton discovered the law of universal gravitation and proved that the earth floats in space, people did not believe the words of the Bible, the earth is suspended over nothing.
However, as science developes, it proves that the records of the Bible are true.


The Bible also recorded the revolution of the sun 3000 years ago.

Psalm 19:5-6 It[sun] is like a bridegroom coming out of his chamber,
like a champion rejoicing to run his course. It rises at one end of the heavens
and makes its circuit to the other

However, it is in the 20th century that mankind discovered that the sun revolves around the center of the galaxy.

The Bible correctly described the inside of the earth, the water cycle and so on before human being discovered. Not only science but the prophecies also prove that the Bible is fact. So I recommand you to study the Bible seriously. You can visit uccspace.net which has the clips about the bible.
