What ideas and places? Proved how? Compiled when? As far as when and how the Bible is compiled it was discussed earlier, but even giving it a dating of the 4th or even the 5th century still doesn't change anything. The Bible has preceeded several scientific discoveries in it's explaination of the natural world. One quick example would be the statement in Isaiah 40:22 - "It is he that sitteth upon the circle of the earth", which clearly seems to suggest an idea of a round earth long before science discovered this fact for itself (and this was written in the OT so it would then date well before Jesus) |

say what?
without referencing the Bible ( that is, don't use the Bible to prove the Bible), list for me 5 things that indicate to you that the Bible is true? and after that show me any real evidence that: A) A global flood of the approximate proportions of that in the Bible has occurred in the last 6000 years B) All the various forms of radiometric dating are flawed, not only flawed, but flawed in such a way that they give similar results C) Other than evolution there is a reasonable explanation for the fossil record. D) The world is less than 10,000 years old. |
