April 12, 2025

It’s a gift! Yes, but it will do you no good whatsoever if you don’t take that gift. Israel was offered a gift, but there were conditions that needed to be met to take full advantage of that gift.

Is the Bible true?


Christians believe the Bible is divinely inspired and essential for teaching, correction, and spiritual growth, but there is often a gap between this belief and actual practice. This gap is partly due to academic skepticism about the Bible's reliability and the argument that using the Bible in modern, post-literate society is unnecessary.


This article addresses the following 10 questions…

Is the Bible true?

Is the Bible historically accurate?

Is the Bible scientifically compatible?

Is the Bible ethically acceptable?

Why do you believe the Bible is true?

Can you be a scientist and also believe in the Bible?

Can you have a high view of reason and still also believe in the Bible?

What could you do today to start finding out about the truthfulness of the Bible?

What new areas of your life could you submit to the truth claims of the Bible?

Does the Bible promote intolerance?

No matter how much energy we put into controlling our narrative, “family” is going to happen, often times with no regard for how we would like that family to behave. Questions can pile up about why, why not, or how did I end up in this sort of family? Our study reminds us again about the limitations of our view, and the value of trusting.
