Christianity Islam Hinduism Buddhism
Of all the religious books out
there, only the bible claims to
be the word of God

In V. 10 He says
why He is the only
God

In Isaiah 1 : 18 –He
is inviting us to
reason

In 17th and 18th century there were
much arguments on the inspiration of
the bible. The academic world argued
much on the inspiration of the bible.
So as if to vindicate himself God
revealed the inspiration of the bible

Dead Sea Scrolls found in the caves of
Qumran 1947
In the caves of Qumran there was a
boy attending goats
And he lost one of the goat
He thought his goat was in the
caves . So he went and try looking
for his goat in the caves

Dead Sea Scrolls found in the caves of
Qumran 1947
Scared to go in the caves , he
started throwing stone hoping the
goat would get out. Suddenly he had
a sound of breaking of glass and ran
to elders of the village

More than 3500 years old
And as they came and went into the
caves. They found scrolls after
scrolls after scroll. Archeologist
came , academicians came .And
they dates the scrolls to be as old as
more that 3500 years

And in the scrolls they found books of
the bible . In a way God was
vindicating Himself to this generation
The bible says in Isaiah 1 : 18

Bob Ingersoll who is
known as one of the
great infidels of the
past

And according to history Bob
Ingersoll was always trying to
discredit the Lord by finding faults in
the bible. So he entered in to a
conspiracy with Lew Wallace a
novelist and he said to Lew Wallace
you write a story about Jesus and
make it authentic in every detail so
that people will believe in it

to find a way to engage Jesus in a
scandal with Mary Magdalene and Lew
Wallace agreed to write a story about
Jesus
In order to write a negative story about
Jesus Lew Wallace decided to read the
bible to know more about Jesus. He
went and read the gospels

And he found the parable of the pearl
of great price and Lew Wallace life was
changed
And instead of writing negative story
about Jesus
Lew Wallace wrote a classic Ben – Hur

Which lifts up Jesus as the
savior of the world. The bible
has a power to change lives
To bring life where there is no
life . To bring hope where
there is despair
In Isaiah 41 : 21 – God’s talks
to unbelievers

God is challenging this
generation . Produce your
cause . Bring forth your
strong reasons
But now He says produce
your cause

Many problems would be solved if
people would read the bible
there was a time when everybody
believed that the earth was flat
In fact there was a philosopher who
was thrown into prison by saying the
earth was round
he was forced to recant the idea
But more that 2700 years ago the
bible already wrote that the earth was
flat
Isaiah 40 : 22

More than 3500 years ago
The bible would write in Job
22 : 14

for years scientist believed that the
moon was larger than the sun
But God had said in His word more
that 3500 years ago
That the sun is bigger than the
moon
In Genesis 1 : 16
