Remember our goal for you in this series which is three-fold:

  1. To love the Word
  2. To learn the Word
  3. To live the Word

Over the last number of months we have shared with you two “Bible beholdings”:

  1. If you want to know God you must know the Bible.
  2. Prayer is talking to God.  The Bible is God talking to us.

We then began to share with you “Four Awesome Assignments to Assist you with the Word”:

  1. Activate the Word

Three ways to activate God’s Word:

             1) Faith activates the Word (Heb. 4:2)

             2) Revelation activates faith (Eph. 1:18)

             3) Meditation activates revelation (Joshua 1:8).

      2. Accept the Word (Matt. 7:24-27).

      3. Assimilate the Word (II Tim. 3:16-17).

      4. Apply the Word (James 1:22).

Then we shared…

To truly love, learn and live the Word of God…you must trust the Word of God!

7 Truths to Trust the Word of God:

  1. The Bible is historically accurate (Ps. 33:4).

          Three Tests of Historical Accuracy:
1) Eyewitness accounts (I cor. 15:6)
2) The Bible was recorded and copied with extra care.
3) Archaeological confirmation

This month let’s continue our series…

      2. The Bible is scientifically accurate (I Tim. 6:20)

Have you noticed that science is continually evolving?  If you haven’t, just take a look at your 5th grade science book!  I remember taking a computer science class at the University of Tennessee…does anyone remember the Commodore 64 computer?!  You could play “pong” on it.  My, how science has progressed!

It’s amazing that even though science has progressed at such a rapid rate, the more it progresses the more it proves the Bible right!  The Bible has contradicted the science of the day for thousands of years, yet the more that science advances…the more it proves the Bible’s accuracy!

In 1861, the French Academy of Science published “51 Incontrovertible Science Facts that the Bible is Wrong”.  All 51 of those incontrovertible facts have since been proven wrong!  You see, it’s not just what it says that makes it so accurate, but it’s also what the Bible doesn’t say that makes it so accurate!
