Description

'In a society where relativism is the most acclaimed philosophy, it is of utmost importance that Christians believe absolutely that the Bible is the inerrant Word of God.' Erwin Lutzer takes readers on a journey of faith where they are asked some of the most fundamental questions a person could ask. In his readable, yet profound style, Lutzer critically examines proof that will determine supernatural authenticity of the Bible.

changed lives, are elaborated to showcase the strength of the Bible and the weaknesses of other beliefs.
Inner structure, and consistency of the Bible makes it impossible to be the human fictional construct. History and archaeological findings support the Biblical places and events. Prophecies of the Bible is to the point, traceable and proven fact, hundreds of years after these have been written down, thereby so fundamentally different from Nostradamus's 'prophecies', that are open for guessing. A large part is devoted to science, and more specific, Darwinist evolutionism versus the acknowledgement of a Creator. The canon of the Bible is another tough topic which is dealt with in all openness and respect for the books at hand. Lutzer finally rejects the idea of moral through an atheistic point of view, and the accusation that Christianity is evil in nature. A thorough apology for Christianity.
