The Bible is Absolutely True.

Jesus said, John 17:17 “Thy Word is truth”.

Some other books may be true, in that their contents are correct;

but only the Bible is TRUTH itself. It is the only reliable guide to

ultimate truth. God is truth and cannot lie.

Titus. 1:2 This truth gives them confidence that they have eternal

life, which God, who does not lie, promised them before the world

began.

The Bible is Inspired by God.

2 Timothy 3:16 All Scripture is given by inspiration of God,

and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for

instruction in righteousness.

This inspiration literally means “God-breathed”. God did not breath

something into a book called the Bible, God breathed the Bible

out of His own mouth.

Matthew. 4:4 Man does not live by bread alone but by every word

that proceeds from the mouth of God.

He moved certain holy prophets and apostles through His Spirit, so

that they then put down in writing the exact words God wanted

them to write.

God Controlled the Writers of the Bible.

2 Peter 1:20-21 knowing this first, that no prophecy of Scripture is of

any private interpretation, for prophecy never came by the will of

man, but holy men of God spoke as they were moved by the Holy

Spirit.

They did not simply sit down and decide to write the Bible. God

chose who would do the writing. He worked miraculously in them

so that He controlled what they wrote. It was not left to the

fallibility of humans. They knew for a fact that the words they wrote

were not merely their own, or of human unction.
