Three Reasons Why We Can Trust the Bible

100 Days of Preaching the Gospel #51 | with Daniel Whyte III

SCRIPTURE -- I Peter 1:24-25: "For all flesh is as grass, and all the glory of man as the flower of grass. The grass withereth, and the flower thereof falleth away: But the word of the Lord endureth for ever. And this is the word which by the gospel is preached unto you."

The Bible is perhaps the most contested book in all of history. No other book has been banned, burned, and confiscated as much as the Bible. Yet, no other book has made so many people so willing to die for what it says. After so much turmoil surrounding the Bible down through the centuries, 1 Peter 1:25 makes a lot of sense -- "the word of the Lord endureth forever."

Many people, today, still have questions about the Bible. They want to know whether it is a book of truth or a book of made up stories. They want to know what will happen if they follow its teachings. They want to know whether or not the Bible is reliable in what it says. Well, I am one of those who has read and followed the teachings of the Bible for many years, and I can tell you that the Bible has never failed me. It is has proven to be true in all of its claims throughout my experience.

But for those of you who are not as familiar with the Bible, allow me to share with you three reasons why we can trust the Bible.

1. The first reason why we can trust the Bible is because the text of the Bible is reliable.

2. The second reason why we can trust the Bible is because of its remarkable unity.

3. The third reason why we can trust the Bible is because it is life-changing.
