After thousands of years of research and study,
historians, archaeologist, philosophers and scientists are proving that the
claims of the Bible, authored by God, are accurate and true. We see obvious
confirmations in astronomical, anthropological, archaeological, biological,
chemical and geological facts. The Bible is filled with truth, which scientists took thousands of years to discover and are now proving.
Of course, the biggest proof, which Columbus helped to
confirm, is that the earth is round and that it is supported by nothing but
gravity from the sun (Job
26:7; Isaiah 40:22; Psalm 103:12). Astronomers are proving what the
Bible also states: that the stars are innumerable (Jeremiah 33:22; Genesis 22:17), differ in
their brilliancy and life span (1 Corinthians 15:41), follow a predictable course, and cluster
in constellations and galaxies (Jeremiah 31:35; Job 9:9).
For years, anthropologists debated whether the human race
originated from one source. Today, DNA and genetics authenticate what the Bible
claimed all along, that we came from one man and one woman (Genesis 3:20; 1 Corinthians
15:54; Acts 17:26). The various races came when God scattered the
inhabitants of the known world across the whole earth (Genesis 11:1-9).
Evolution claims that all of life came from a single cell.
However, the Bible claims that God created everything “after it’s own kind.”
Biology confirmed that blood circulation, complex protein sequences in DNA –
which are unique with each individual, fossil records and the lack of proof of
evolutionary links in any discovery to date, all substantiate that God created
each species as uniquely special (Leviticus 17:11).
The study of geology, with today’s scientific methods,
corroborate that fossil records validate the Biblical claim that a catastrophic
flood annihilated life and petrified life forms at that time. This confirms
scripture found in Ecclesiastes 1:7, Isaiah 55:10, Psalm 8:8 and Genesis 7:11.
God gives us accurate predictions of future events, so that we do not fear the
future.
Even with all of this proof, human pride resists believing
in the Biblical accounts, because they would have to submit to Almighty God.
They prefer trusting in human reasoning, even though there are missing links in
every human theory (Romans
1:21; 2 Peter 3:5). They believe they are in control of their own
destiny, and use limited knowledge to purport their theories as facts. They
receive worldwide acclaim for what is nothing more than ignorance of God’s
Truth.
False prophets and prognosticators help to dilute God’s
truth, because people dismiss the accuracy of Bible prophecy due to
suppositions by sources such as the Mayans and Nostradamus. Yet, just in the
book of Daniel we see the perfect prediction of the course of Middle Eastern
society for five entire centuries (Daniel 7:6, 8:5-8, 11:2-4). God’s Word is Truth and we can
stake our life on it.
Prayer:
Father God, You love us so much, and understand our human
penchant to need to see proof so well, that You gave us the Bible full of facts
and figures to convince even the most uneducated person that Your Word is
Truth. Yet, people continue to allow Satan’s lies to distract them from
believing in You for their salvation (2 Timothy 4:4). In the end, even the most hardened skeptic will
bow their knee to King Jesus, even those who condemn themselves to hell by
their unbelief (Romans
14:11; Philippians 2:10; John 3:18)
Thought for the Day:
Biblical truth has been verified continuously over the
years by every historic, archaeological, philosophical and scientific discovery
made by mankind. – Isaiah 41:21-23, 48:3-5
