 Prior to the modern electronic era, the written word was the only means
to accurately preserve and spread one’s thoughts for future generations.
Books then are the logical place to look for words from our Creator.
It is only logical that He would somehow make His writings
distinguishable from the immense amount of other writing available.
Some of the ways He could and did make His writings special are that
they:
 | Contain science ahead of mankind
actually discovering it8, as
well as being immune from including well accepted philosophies and
principles that were in error and pervasive within the cultures of the
writers. |
| Contain 100% accurate
prophecy.9 |
| Record history accurately.10
This
is especially amazing when you consider the passionate effort of
intellectual greats that have tried to find error within His Book. |
| To a
degree beyond human capacity, be very complex, yet holistic and without
error, especially remarkable in the manner in which His book was created by
using 40 writers over many years, cultures, and nations.
Some additional special aspects include using very mundane men as
extraordinary spokesmen whose remarkable writings were often abnormally
brief about extraordinary events and people, and at times inexplicably
contrary to accepted falsehoods within the author’s cultures.11 |
| Our
Creator used humble and authentic writers to speak His Truth vs. the founders of
most religions. These writers
had nothing to gain from their manuscripts; in fact, they were typically
persecuted and often included embarrassing self portrayals of themselves.
Yet these same men were willing to die just for stating the truth
that they themselves knew to be true. To
explain away, would require a totally irrational amount of commitment and
complicity that has never been documented elsewhere. |
| Contain hidden and multiple layers
of insights for those willing to spend the time to research and reason through.12 |
| That
His Book and the specific culture, language, nation, and lineages utilized
to tell His Truth through, have supernaturally endured, even when zealous
rulers mandated their destruction.13 |
| Be able to positively affect the
lives of those that take His words to heart, even the most decadent.14 |
| A
perfectly trustworthy person who knows, said so. |
| Being
easily translatable and relevant to all cultures for over 2000 years. |
 Indeed there is a book, and only one book, that meets these
requirements. No other book even
comes close. Not surprisingly, this
book is also the most accurately transcribed book of ancient literature, with
more and better preserved copies by over an order of magnitude over other
ancient books.15
How
was our Creator able to create this book through men?
Considering He created the Universe and the writers, I’m sure He is
able to get the writers to record His divine inspiration properly.
He also helped control circumstances to ensure the preservation of His
writings and their selection as from Him.16
He did this in part by endorsing many of His writers with the ability to
perform miracles in His name.17
Now
that we have discovered our Creator’s book, what does this owner’s manual
have to say about those big initial questions:
|
What is our Creator like? |
|
What is our Creator’s overall
plan? |
|
How does mankind fit into His plan? |
|
What does He expect from each of
us? |
 Are
you ready for some of His Real Answers ……?
