![HOW DO WE KNOW THE BIBLE IS FROM GOD?
Josh McDowell: “[The Bible was] written over a 1500-year span; over 40 different generations; written by more than 40 authors, from every walk of life—including kings, peasants, philosophers, fishermen, poets, statesmen, scholars, etc. Moses, [was] a political leader trained in the universities of Egypt, [Peter was a fisherman,] Amos, a herdsman, Joshua, a military general, Nehemiah, a cup-bearer, Daniel, a prime minister, Luke, a doctor, Solomon, a king, Matthew, a tax collector, and Paul, a rabbi. [The Bible was] written in different places: Moses in the wilderness, Jeremiah in a dungeon, Daniel on a hillside and in a palace, Paul inside prison walls, Luke while traveling, John on the island of Patmos, [and] others in the rigors of military campaigns. [The Bible was] written at different times: David in times of war [and] Solomon in times of peace. [The Bible was] written during different moods [with] some writings from the heights of joy and others from the depths of sorrow and despair. [The Bible was] written on three continents: Asia, Africa, and Europe, [as well as] in three languages; Hebrew, [some portion in] Aramaic, and the New Testament language, [Koine] Greek." Also, these people mostly didn't know each other, especially since they were from different generations. They could not cross-reference their writings. And yet, the Bible never once contradicts itself and has the same message throughout, which is God's redemption of man through Christ's work on the cross. | image tagged in bible,god,jesus,truth,christian,christ | made w/ Imgflip meme maker](http://i.imgflip.com/3sdnte.jpg)
![DO PEOPLE ASK YOU FOR PROOF OF GOD? [1 of 3]
Well, here’s some: how about God's track record with His predictions (prophecies)? I want to give you a couple examples but just know that, so far, God has fulfilled over 2000 predictions He made that we can read about in the Bible. And God's predictions aren’t vague like those of psychics. Yet, even with very specific prophecies, God has been 100% correct and His remaining 500 predictions are all lining up right now in these last days. In Daniel 2, God predicted the rise of nations, telling us these four future empires in historical order: Babylon, Medo-Persian, Greece, and then Rome. God also predicted the fall of nations. In the Bible's book of Nahum, God predicted Nineveh would be permanently destroyed by fire, easily captured, their army officers would desert, and those officers would even be drunk in their final hours. As specific as God was, of course it happened just that way. Archaeologists have not only discovered Nineveh, but also uncovered a layer of ash in its ruins, showing it was destroyed by fire. Also, ancient Babylonian records reveal how Nineveh was easily overtaken and that their officers fled the scene. Another Greek historian records how the king gave much wine to his soldiers that night, causing them to be drunk. It was exactly as God said it would be and that prediction was not your average psychic-type generalized con like, "You're going to meet someone new.” | image tagged in prophecy,prediction,god,bible,christian,proof | made w/ Imgflip meme maker](http://i.imgflip.com/3tn3uz.jpg)
![DO PEOPLE ASK YOU FOR PROOF OF GOD? [2 of 3] Here’s another very specific fulfilled prophecy from God: The book of Isaiah talks about how Babylon would be overthrown at the hands of Medes, with the gates opened by a guy named Cyrus and in the end, the area would be reduced to swampland. Guess what happened. History shows it was exactly that; the Medes joined up with the Persians to conquered Babylon, despite Babylon's incredible defenses, which included Babylon's outer wall being so huge (tall and wide), they would have chariot races on it. No one should have been able to get through to Babylon. Still, God being the ONLY one who knows the end from the beginning, in the future, the record shows that a guy named Cyrus diverted the flow of the Euphrates River, which had run under the walls of Babylon, marched into the city along the river bed, and archaeological excavations reveal that parts of Babylon today cannot be dug up because it's under water, making it swamp-like. | image tagged in prophecy,prediction,bible,proof,god,christian | made w/ Imgflip meme maker](http://i.imgflip.com/3tn4i5.jpg)
