    About this ebook

















    The most
    important question in religious thought is, “Is the Bible the Word of God?” If
    the Bible is the Word of God, an absolutely trustworthy revelation from God
    Himself of Himself, His purposes and His will, of man’s duty and destiny of
    spiritual and eternal realities, then we have a starting-point from which we
    can proceed to the conquest of the whole domain of religious truth. But if the
    Bible is not the Word of God, if it is the mere product of man’s thinking,
    speculating, and guessing, not altogether trustworthy in regard to religious
    and eternal truth, then we are all at sea, not knowing whither we are drifting,
    but we may be sure that we are not drifting toward any safe port.

      Why Do Many People STRUGGLE With A LACK OF FAITH?

      Feb 11, 2022

      The apostle Paul exhorts Christians to “walk by faith and not by sight” – 2 Corinthians 5:7. What we see here is a contrast between truth and perception—what we know and believe to be true and what we perceive to be true. This is where the Christian

      What The New Testament Doesn’t Say

      May 20, 2019

      When professing Christians deny Biblical creation, we often point them to the Words of Jesus and the New Testament authors, which clearly affirm their own belief in Biblical creation. Because Christians are, by definition, people who believe what Jes
