Synopsis

Science And The Word Of God compares scientific discovery to biblical truths. Taking the perspective that these are not antithetical positions as suggested, but are symbiotic. Eight specific areas questioned by unbelievers are investigated! Creationism, extended life spans, biblical giants, Noah’s flood, Exodus, Jonah, the birth of Jesus and his resurrection. These areas are looked at to determine if they are folk tales as has been suggested or factual. This book also looks for and at historical and archeological support for the Bible. Concluding that contrary to popular claims, there is a large body of work that supports the accuracy and authenticity of the Bible. It also explores misuse of scripture to support opprobrious positions. Suggesting that scripture should always be read in its original context! Applications to diverse situations and circumstances can only be correctly utilized through divine revelation! Finally, a look is also taken at three schools of thought on God, and how the Bible addressed them! Atheism; there is no God! According, to the Bible some have foolishly decided there is no God! This is a position that would seem to require more faith that the belief in an omnipotent creator! Agnosticism; the belief that no determination can be reached on any issue, if it cannot be empirically defined! The biblical response, test God’s word and determine its accuracy! The reality, is that despite the emphasis on knowledge there are many things we accept without any cognition of their operation! Lastly Apologetics an explanation of Christian faith to unbelievers! The Bible instructs believers to respond and explain our belief in an unseen savior! The reason for this; everything will eventually pass away with the exception of the of the ‘Word of God’.
