Download or read book Scientific Authentication of the Bible written by Franklin Nolle Williams and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2013-08-30 with total page 142 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In August of 1994 a paper was published in the scholarly Statistical Science, a journal of the Institute of Mathematical Statistics, entitled Equidistant Letter Sequences in the Book of Genesis. The paper was written by three internationally respected Hebrew Scholars and mathematicians, Doron Witztum, Eliyahu Rips, and Yoav Rosenberg. Their assertion is that there is a hidden, underlying text in the Torah, the first five books of the Bible. The following is an excerpt from their abstract of the paper which can be found in the appendix of Michael Drosnins book, The Bible Codes; It has been noted that when the Book of Genesis is written as two-dimensional arrays, equidistant letter sequences spelling words with related meanings often appear in close proximity. Quantitative tools for measuring this phenomenon are developed. Randomization analysis shows that the effect is significant at the level of 0.00002. The arrays are rows with an equal number of letters with all the punctuation and spaces removed. The sequences they are referring to are words like hammer and anvil, table and chair, rain and umbrella. These words go together and are usually found close to one another in the arrays. The tools they are referring to are the tools of mathematics involved. The randomization analysis is two one-hundred thousandths. In other words, it could only be two in one-hundred thousand chances that this occurred by the accidental random sequences of letters in this text. Most scientific experiments only require one in a hundred, 1/100 or .01, as being within validity. It was the occasion of the Bible Codes that it occurred to me that if there was an underlying code, then it would be ludicrous for the surface text to be invalid. Scribes had been specially trained to write the surface text verbatim, without one jot or tittle changed. If there was one mistake they were made to rewrite the whole page again. It was written contiguous, without punctuation or spacing between words. It was considered heretical if anything was changed. Because of this I began to study the surface text very carefully to find any hidden meanings that may have been there.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For decades, Henry Morris has been known as a defender of the Christian faith. It's an auspicious title for such a humble man, yet no one can deny that the grasp Morris has on science and faith issues is staggering. In this updated classic, Morris walks the reader through history "real history" by showing the absurdity of evolution.

Download or read book Scientific Facts in the Bible written by Ray Comfort and published by ReadHowYouWant.com. This book was released on 2011-11 with total page 89 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An elderly lady once left 20,000 dollar and 'my Bible and all it contains' to her nephew. The young man knew what the Bible contained so he didn't bother to open it. He merely picked it up and put it on a high shelf in his house, and headed for Las Vegas. It wasn't long until all his money was gone. He lived the next 60 years as a pauper, scraping for every meal and barely having the clothes on his back. As he was moving to a convalescent home he reached up to grab that old Bible and accidentally dropped it from his trembling hands. It fell to the floor and opened, revealing a 100 dollar bill between every page. That man lived his life as a pauper when he could have lived in luxury, simply because of his prejudice. He thought he knew what the Bible contained. Most people don't know that the Bible contains a wealth of incredible scientific, medical and prophetic facts. The implications are mind boggling...

Download or read book Authenticity and Authority of the Bible written by Ken Chant and published by Vision Publishing (Ramona, CA). This book was released on 2015-01-27 with total page 270 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book, Authenticity and Authority of the Bible, by Ken Chant, explores how our Bible came into being in its present form; its inspiration and authority and that God is the author. It points out the differences between the Bible and the sacred books of other religions. Chapter 7 tells us of Jesus, the new man, committing himself to the Word and bringing forth an entirely new concept of the Word, that God is alive in Scripture. He broke the barriers of natural perceptions, natural desire, natural family, and his supernatural foe. By His dependence on the Old Testament, Jesus upheld its authority. Archeology, down through the years, has proven over and over again, the truth of the Bible and its authenticity. Finally inspiration, faith, revelation, and science and all examined, demonstrating again, that the Bible is an authentic book on which we can rely.
Download or read book Bible Versus Science written by Tiebet Joshua and published by AuthorHouse. This book was released on 2015-08-21 with total page 133 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Bible is generally believed to be the very word of Godthat is, words that were spoken by God at different ages through different people and mediums for the benefit of man. For this reason, its contents are taken to be sacred, true, and enduring forever. Hence, the thought of doing intensive academic works on the various positions of the Bible is hardly done. This is perhaps to avoid questioning the words of God. You either believe the Bible to be true or question it and be looked upon as an unbeliever. On the other hand, and unlike religion where one has to believe before seeing (because God has said it even when you are not sure that it is God that had said it), science is seeing before believing. Science is a fact that has been tested and proven to be true with the ways and methods of carrying out the tests or experiments clearly written down for anyone who cares to try the process.
Download or read book The Bible Unearthed written by Israel Finkelstein and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2002-03-06 with total page 401 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this groundbreaking work that sets apart fact and legend, authors Finkelstein and Silberman use significant archeological discoveries to provide historical information about biblical Israel and its neighbors. In this iconoclastic and provocative work, leading scholars Israel Finkelstein and Neil Asher Silberman draw on recent archaeological research to present a dramatically revised portrait of ancient Israel and its neighbors. They argue that crucial evidence (or a telling lack of evidence) at digs in Israel, Egypt, Jordan, and Lebanon suggests that many of the most famous stories in the Bible—the wanderings of the patriarchs, the Exodus from Egypt, Joshua’s conquest of Canaan, and David and Solomon’s vast empire—reflect the world of the later authors rather than actual historical facts. Challenging the fundamentalist readings of the scriptures and marshaling the latest archaeological evidence to support its new vision of ancient Israel, The Bible Unearthed offers a fascinating and controversial perspective on when and why the Bible was written and why it possesses such great spiritual and emotional power today.

Download or read book Undeniable Evidence written by Ray Comfort and published by . This book was released on 2019-10 with total page 220 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Even though the Bible wasn't written as a scientific book, it contains amazing scientific facts that were penned thousands of years before man discovered them facts regarding the earth being round, its free float in space, laws of quarantine, the existence of the dinosaur, and many others. Although Christians don't need convincing that the Bible is the Word of God (because they have met the Author), such gems in Scripture tend to warm the heart and solidify our faith. While this publication is written primarily for Christians, unbelievers who are perhaps interested in the Bible's immutable promise of everlasting life may like to examine the undeniable evidence, and consider the implications if its offer of Heaven and warning of Hell are indeed true.

Download or read book The Bible Tells Me So written by Peter Enns and published by Harper Collins. This book was released on 2014-09-09 with total page 220 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The controversial Bible scholar and author of The Evolution of Adam recounts his transformative spiritual journey in which he discovered a new, more honest way to love and appreciate God’s Word. Trained as an evangelical Bible scholar, Peter Enns loved the Scriptures and shared his devotion, teaching at Westminster Theological Seminary. But the further he studied the Bible, the more he found himself confronted by questions that could neither be answered within the rigid framework of his religious instruction or accepted among the conservative evangelical community. Rejecting the increasingly complicated intellectual games used by conservative Christians to “protect” the Bible, Enns was conflicted. Is this what God really requires? How could God’s plan for divine inspiration mean ignoring what is really written in the Bible? These questions eventually cost Enns his job—but they also opened a new spiritual path for him to follow. The Bible Tells Me So chronicles Enns’s spiritual odyssey, how he came to see beyond restrictive doctrine and learned to embrace God’s Word as it is actually written. As he explores questions progressive evangelical readers of Scripture commonly face yet fear voicing, Enns reveals that they are the very questions that God wants us to consider—the essence of our spiritual study.

Book excerpt: A recent string of popular-level books written by the New Atheists have leveled the accusation that the God of the Old Testament is nothing but a bully, a murderer, and a cosmic child abuser. This viewpoint is even making inroads into the church. How are Christians to respond to such accusations? And how are we to reconcile the seemingly disconnected natures of God portrayed in the two testaments? In this timely and readable book, apologist Paul Copan takes on some of the most vexing accusations of our time, including: God is arrogant and jealous God punishes people too harshly God is guilty of ethnic cleansing God oppresses women God endorses slavery Christianity causes violence and more Copan not only answers God's critics, he also shows how to read both the Old and New Testaments faithfully, seeing an unchanging, righteous, and loving God in both.
