BIBLE DIFFICULTIES
Author: Edward D. Andrews
Publisher: Christian Publishing House
ISBN:
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 251
Book Description
THE BIBLE: ERRORS! MISTAKES! INCONSISTENCIES! CONTRADICTIONS! Critics claim that the Bible is filled with so-called errors, mistakes, inconsistencies, and contradictions. Some even speak of thousands of errors. The truth is there is not even one demonstrated error in the original text of the Bible. Of course, we would never say that there are no difficulties in our Bibles. The Bible is loaded with thousands of difficult, challenging passages, many of which become obstacles in the development of our faith. These difficulties arise from differences in culture, language, religious and political organizations, not to mention between 2,000 to 3,500 years of separation between the Bible author and the modern-day reader. Calling attention to these difficulties and sifting out the misconceptions, Andrews defends the full or absolute inerrancy of Scripture. He clarifies the so-called errors or mistakes and what might seem like apparent contradictions. He arms the Christian with what they need to defend their faith in the Bible. Honestly, whenever Christians find difficulty in the Bible, acknowledge it. Do not try to obscure it. Do not try to dodge it. The best way to deal with Bible critics and the Bible Difficulties is to understand all the ways that Bible Difficulties can come about. And then have dozens of Bible difficulties answered as examples. Herein is the defense of God's Word that Christians have been waiting for.
