Believer's Worldview - Curtis Smale

Archive for 200705     ( return to current blog )


 List of Reasons Why the Bible is Completely Reliable
 

your conscience

Prophets and apostles and the fact that they were appointed by God and the fact that their prophecies were accurate.

the Holy Spirit's confirmation

the love in it

the faulty men in it--realistic

no glory for "man"

the flawless logic, never broken by a single sentence

the self-evident truth in it

it is self-authenticating

the historical truth in it

the archaeological confirmation

the scientific confirmation

the psychological/emotional confirmation

the universal truth confirmation

the moral law confirmation

internal cross-referencing

no mistakes in it--none!

no self-contradictions, though there are over 40 authors over 1,500+ years

the confirmation of 11 disciples viciously tortured and martyred, not denying it's truth to get out of those horrors

the testimony of billions

the endurance of the Scripture across thousands of years

the miraculous preservation of the Scripture--over 5,000 copies

99.5% agreement of the Received Text--this is unparalleled in ancient literature
(the 0.5% differences are mostly word- order and alternate spellings of names and things like that. These cannot even be considered"typos.")

Over 250 PERFECTLY FULFILLED Messianic prophecies.

If you do not believe that the Bible is the flawless Word of God, then "you got a lotta 'splainin' to do, Lucy!" :)

 Why ALL Religions and Worldviews Other than Christianity are Ultimately Wrong
 

1. The Bible says JESUS is the ONLY WAY to Heaven.

2. All other religions contradict logic or themselves.

3. Atheism is held entirely by faith, rejecting the *evidence* of creation, consciousness, conscience, beauty, non-material thoughts, the universal moral law, design in creation and the intuitive conscience.

4. Judaism has been fulfilled and succeeded by Christianity.

5. Islam is filled with lies, hate and contradictions.

6. Hinduism and Buddhism are logically untenable.

7. Occultic and Satanic religions presuppose the existence of GOD and Christ.

8. Evolution is an unproven theory held by FAITH: life cannot come from non-life. (a MIRACLE is needed)

9. Jehovah's Witness, Mormon, and all other pseudo-Christian religions contradict the Bible while pretending to accept it.

10. All religions other than Christianity teach salvation by good works.

11. Christianity is the OLDEST faith--it was there in the Garden of Eden.

The only true faith is the one that affirms what the infallible Bible affirms:

1. The self-existent God, the Holy Trinity: The Father, The Son-Jesus Christ, and the Holy Spirit) created everything out of nothing.
2. Jesus is God.
3. There is a moral law.
4. Humans are evil sinners who have broken the law.
5. Hell (eternal torment) is God's justice for sin. Unbelievers go there immediately when they die.
6. Jesus is the ONLY Savior from sin, death and Hell.
7. Jesus is the ONLY Way to get to Heaven. Believers go there immediately when they die.

 There are NO starving children in India!
 

...according to official Hindu belief.

According to the Eastern worldview, EVERYTHING is an illusion.

Therefore, truth is not possible--truth is an illusion, too.

So this statement that "truth is an illusion," disproves itself:

If it is true, then it is false.

If it is false, then it is false.

According to Hinduism, there is no "starving" in India.

According to Hinduism, there are no children in India.

According to Hinduism, there is no such thing as India.

According to Hinduism, there are no gurus making these claims.

Yet, they exist, and so does India and children, and the fact that they are starving.

Hinduism is a great lie of Satan.

Over a BILLION people are buying this lie, to their eternal damnation.

God said that He would punish those who hate Him to the third and fourth generation.

He will not share His glory with the literally MILLIONS of Hindu gods that are worshiped.

Indeed.

Also God is NOT synonymous with His creation.

There is no reincarnation, except in a fictitious imagination.

Believe in Jesus-God, and get your sins forgiven.

Heaven and Hell are the only two destinations for the airplane of life.

Only believers in JESUS get into Heaven.

Everyone else goes to the Other Destination...

 Feelings DON'T Lie
 

People can experience many experiences and emotions based on LIES. Emotions DO NOT lie: false THOUGHTS lie.

 More Than A Lifetime
 

It takes only a moment to believe in Jesus Christ and be saved from your sins eternally and permanently. It takes more than a lifetime to understand the purity and infinite perfection of God's truth, His ways, His worldview, and His knowledge and wisdom. Instead, many of us like to think that because we believe in Jesus, that we know it all--the first thing to come out of our corrupted minds and hearts is somehow "right." And that there is nothing more to learn in the 1,500 pages of Scripture. Those pages are God's inspired and perfect Word, (obviously!), and God's Word is ***Never Wrong***. By asking God for His Spirit when we read His Word, and being willing and then actually obeying Him, we will progressively come to a correct, right, and true understanding of God and His ways and His truth and His knowledge and wisdom.
