I was in a Muslim country, at a time when I got into a conversation with several Muslim compassed me. They began to bombard me with questions traps. Their questions had one goal: to catch me in words, but then I kill the greatest of ease. And if you were to somehow, miraculously, caught by the police, then only that they would confess that they killed a Christian provăduia Bible and Jesus Christ as God, it provides complete freedom. But God gave me wisdom and courage, and even despite the danger in which I was, He was glorified. When I told those people about how Jesus Christ and understanding the truths about Him in Scripture, changed my life, all of whom have remained deeply moving and muţit. One of them turned to their leader and asked: "What he told is true?" Having no what to say, Islamist leader was able to make only the following statement: "No, their holy book changed people and it is not true. " When I asked to bring me evidence of his firmaţia not know what to answer me. Because there is no other explanation why the Bible's teaching does not match the Koran, the only reason they bring Muslims sounds like this: "The Bible no longer exists in its original form. It was changed by the people ". Is it so? Let's see together. After I bring evidence in favor of the authenticity of the Bible, in other articles we will look and authenticity of the Qur'an.
There are many proofs that the Bible truth true but can be divided into two categories, namely internal and external evidence. Today we will focus on internal evidence. Internal evidence are those things within the Bible itself showing its divine origin. But because the term "Bible" is found not written on the pages of Holy Scripture, is entitled to give first a brief explanation about the origin of the word.
Significance of the word "Bible": The term comes from the Greek Bible "papyrus plant". Leaves of plants that were used as paper. Also the word, "Bible" can be translated into Greek as "book". Less commonly used term "library" or "Divine Library", so "Divine books collection". Other names to meet even the Bible itself in its pages, namely:
Luke the Evangelist and Apostle James, I call: "Scriptures" (Luke 4:21, James 2:23) or "Scriptures" - (Luke 24:27)
The great Apostle of the Gentiles, Paul calls "the Scriptures", or "Holy Scriptures" (Romans 1:2, 2 Timothy 3:15), he also, better called "Law and the Prophets" (Romans 3:21)
It makes claims that when Daniel says: "Books" - Daniel 9:2
Now, after seeing what this word "Bible", lets see which internal evidence proves the authenticity of the divine and wonderful books.
Proof Unit: Even if the Bible is a collection of 66 individual books, written on several continents, in three different languages, over a period around 1500 years by more than 40 authors (who were aged and different life styles and many of them have never met), the Bible keeps the unit from beginning to end without contradiction. This unity is unique from all other books and is a proof of the divine origin of his words. As God used certain people so that they even His words recorded in the Bible. But suppose that Muslims claim the Bible is true is not original, but changed people. This statement can only be someone who never really studied it. It is impossible for a human mind, to be able to change and shape in a manner so perfectly. So when you read the book of Revelation (last book of the Bible) to actually realize that it binds in a divine unity of Genesis (first book of the Bible), complements this and all other books of the Old and New Testament. Just imagine: a book (imaginary) that contains in it history, culture and religion, began to be written about the year 508 AD. For over 1500 years, have written in it, each in his time more than 40 authors. Authors who lived in different centuries and different empires. They had different lifestyle and different problems. 1500 years have passed this year, in 2008, the book that fantasy should be finished. It is hard to believe, humanly speaking, that these authors could maintain a close unity in thought, principles and values. History of world religions, that the values and principles change over time. Even during his lifetime, an author can change their opinion and certain principles of life. Scrierele his youth may differ greatly from those that will write to old age, and how he sees things in his youth, probably from old age you will see otherwise. However analyzing the Bible in this regard you will realize that the Divine Book is different. Unit that has this book is unique in the history of world literature. And actually show you that if man had tried to falsify and if it would have been the original content, then the unit would not be there. Imaginary book example above, is humanly speaking impossible. However, except for time period 508 AD and 2008, these statements are true about the Bible.
Proof of prophecy:
If there would have been left no other evidence of the truthfulness of the Bible, and I have had on this, we would have been enough. The Bible contains hundreds of detailed prophecies about the future of some nations, including Israel, on the future of certain cities, the future of mankind and the coming of the Messiah, the Savior of Israel and all who believe in Him . Unlike the prophecies found in other religious books, Bible prophecies have never failed in their fulfillment. There are over 300 prophecies about Jesus Christ in the Old Testament. Not only was it foretold where He was born and the family will come, but they said and how he died and rose again the third day. Simply no logical way to explain the fulfilled prophecies of the Bible than to accept the divine origin of it. There is no other religious book that contains more detailed prophecies such as the Bible. But to admit again that "the Bible has been changed by the people" as Muslims claim. Then faputl explained that these prophecies were fulfilled and continues to celebrate the m
is exactly? If changed, surely were changed and prophecies of it. If there is no longer the original and authentic, of the events prophesied in its pages we celebrate? Further proof that really all part of a series of prophecies fulfilled is:
The people of Israel: Someone said: "If you try to prove that the Bible is true, one of the biggest difficulties is that you'll meet people of Israel". The history of this people which is very detailed written in the Scriptures, throw off anyone attempts to prove that the Bible is the Word of God. Deuteronomy Chapter 7:7 says that he (Israel) was the smallest in number among all peoples. Without a specific territory, no freedom, were slaves in Egypt. At that time, Egypt was the dominant world power. However because of the promise God made to Abraham, then his son Isaac and his grandson Jacob, God "out of Egypt, with strong hand and outstretched arm, showing frightening signs and wonders." (Deuteronomy 26 : 8) God according to promise (which also was a prophecy that was fulfilled in the future), given Israel's own territory, made a covenant with them and they were the nation put aside for God. Unfortunately, Israel had a full history of rebellion against God. Time and again, the Jews rebelled against God. As a result of God's wrath is kindled against them, they apologized and regretted his humbled sins. Reconciled with God, receive his blessing again. But then the whole process starts from the beginning. God sent people through which they punished for their sin, so they realize the iniquity. In 70 AD, the Romans besieged Israel and the Jews scattered throughout the pămîntului.Mai Moreover they ever allowed to come back in their homeland. Jews had no country for 1900 years. But spite of it all, God had made the following promise:
,, If ye transgress, I will scatter you among the nations, but if you return to Me and keep My commandments if you will fulfill them, then even if you are banished to the furthest edge of heaven, from there you will collect and bring you again into the place I chose to live there my name. "(Nehemiah 1:8-9, Deuteronomy 30:1-5 see also)
The fact that Israel has stood to this day is a miracle. All the other people who have lost territory in time were within, and they amstecat peoples live there for several hundred years and lost their identity. But Israel stood and word of God to faithfully accomplished before our eyes in 1948 when Jews or returned to Israel, their homeland. Are all prophets and more, lie changed people? If so, then history is all changed and untrue!
Authority and power Single: Fourth internal evidence of the divine origin and authority of the Bible is the unique power it has. Even if this evidence is more subjective than the first three, there is a stronger testimony than this to support the Bible's divine origin. The Bible has a unique authority that you do not have any other book ever written. This authority and power are best seen in how many lives (I am one) have been transformed and changed by understanding the message of this book. Through her countless drug addicts have been cured, countless homosexuals were released criminals were converted countless, countless sinners are rebuked; Through it, hatred has been transformed into love. The Bible contains a dynamic and transforming power that is only possible because it is the Word of God.
"For the word of God is living and active, sharper than any two-edged sword, piercing to the point that divides soul and spirit, joints and marrow, heart, feelings and thoughts." (Hebrew 4:12)
Can do so very delicate a lie concocted by people? Can a lie to break up there to explore your feelings and thoughts of the heart? Of course not. No book in this world has this power. Show me one Muslim who according to the teachings of the Koran and Islamic beliefs experienced the new birth, that radical change of mind and human heart. None of them had at least one part of the new birth, even if a large portion of them, from a sincere desire to get closer to God, have tried and are trying hitherto to live life by their own efforts righteous. Many of them claim to live a holy life, but this is something that comes from their daily exertions and not the power of God in them. Therein lies the difference. Christian lives according to God giveth power to the presence of the Holy Spirit in him, and his life is not worth it and praise it, but credit and praise of God. Muslim lives by his own effort, through hard effort aimed desire a better life ahead of Dumnezeu.Din wish I would gather as many good deeds for the judgment. But often, not to say in all cases, effort and their effort fails. Why? For Islam, the Qur'an itself gives only empty religion without its adherents to give the possibility to have a personal relationship with God. Because the Koran, unlike the Holy Book the Bible has unique authority and power to change human life, starting from the inside, from the source. Koran and all religions try to change it man out. Clothes, hair, bath before prayer, etc.. But that water will wash the heart from sin? What, if not the Word of God, living water, Jesus Christ our Saviour?
Gindeştete one: suppose that you know what "Puzzle". Each puzzle has a specific design. Putting those little details, all together will receive drawing designed by the author. If somehow you try to change the place of those small details, then your attempt to complete the puzzl will fail. So is the Bible. From his first chapter to the last, have the same truth, the same loving and merciful God who loves us unconditionally. Which put the price on our person beginning. What ever wanted to have a close personal relationship with each of us, and she went up to sacrifice. This fact is clearly seen as a red thread throughout the Bible. Now, if you try to forge all these truths, would fail the entire Bible, the whole picture, just like the case with the puzzl.
Dear reader, gîndeştete well, if the Bible had been changed by people, then where the unit so it? If there is the original, why continue to still accomplish? If there is the Word of God by which He commanded our lives like, why has so much power to change the characters and lives? But if God has convinced today that the Bible is authentic and unchanged, the actions you take on? I urge all love the Lord Jesus into your heart today to receive the Word of life. That will certainly change the heart and life, just with me and changed me more
other. If you're one of those who have experienced life change through faith in Jesus Christ and the truths of Holy Scritpuri, I urge you to write a comment below. In short words to deposit a witness depsre your life transformed.
God bless you all!
