The Proof Of The Scriptures

Okay, so most of you know that my wife is in the hospital right now and has been for several days. Anyways I made some headway in my book this evening after the battery died on our computer. Thus the only thing left was my book, a pen, a piece of paper, and the light. So tonights conversation piece is on the Proof of the Scriptures. The bullet points you see below are summarizations of what Boice talks about in chapter 5.

10 Points that Prove Scripture...

1. Scripture is self aware.
2. The testimony of Jesus Christ.
3. The doctrinal and ethical superiority of the Bible above all other books.
4. The power of the Bible to affect us as we read it.
5. The biblical writers would not have claimed divine origin for a book they knew was purely their own.
6. Unity - the Bible was written or a span of fifteen hundred years and by over 40 people yet "They produced a volume that is a marvelous unity in its doctrine, historical viewpoints, ethic and expectations."
7. Uncommon Accuracy - "...although error is human, inerrancy is certainly divine."
8. Answered Prophecy
9. The Bibles Preservation
10. Changed Lives.

With that I leave you, time to spend some good time reading II Timothy... plenty of cross referencing to do... - Thanks to my brother-in-law and my Dad for these tools of the trade...

Caio,

Jehu
