All
Scripture is God-breathed and is useful for teaching, rebuking,
correcting and training in righteousness, so that the man of God may
be thoroughly equipped for every good work.
2 Timothy 3:16-17
Not Just
Another Book!
The Bible
is under attack. Multitudes of books, reports, and news casts call
into question everything we thought we knew about the Bible. How can
we begin to address all these claims and questions?...
Skeptics
and Scholars
How can you know it's God's word?
It's merely the writings of people.
The Bible has been changed over time.
Parts of the Bible were discarded.
Missing books of the Bible have been found
Science has shown the Bible to be obsolete.
Parts of our Bible are additions that don't belong.
There's thousands of contradictions in the ancient manuscripts that
have been found.
Translations have altered the Bible
Cults
and World Religions
It's no different than our religious book.
Our book is a continuation of it.
Our book is from another prophet.
God must be called Jehovah; you've translated Scriptures wrong.
The Bible is not truth.
Traditionalists
Only our translation is perfect.
Our translators were inspired by God.
Other translations are from Satan.
Our translation is better than all before it.
It was good enough for the Apostle Paul, it's good enough for me.
Your translation has left out important parts of God's Word.
Churches
We wrote the Bible and we can add to it.
We have more books than you do.
We have less books than you do.
Tradition is equal to Scriptures
Tradition clarifies Scriptures.
God needs to be called Yahweh. Old translations have it wrong.
Some passages are more important than others.
All tradition is good
All tradition is bad
Creeds are bad
Christian
Mystics
We have secret knowledge of what the Bible really teaches.
I had an experience that revealed new truth.
God revealed this to me.
I am a prophet, you must listen to me.
I am an apostle of God, you must obey me.
Popular Culture
The church has covered up the truth.
The Bible is just a story book.
I can experience God apart from any book.
Anyone can interpret the Bible to make it say anything they want.
Hidden messages and prophecies are concealed in Bible Codes.
Not
Just Another Book, the live seminar, offers biblical and
scholarly answers to these questions, and more, in an informative,
interactive, and visual manner. Designed especially for believers, it
not only strengthens their faith, but also provides them with
answers. When believers are armed with answers they are less likely
to fall prey to the cults at their door and religions selling another
gospel -- even when that religion is disguised as modern scientific
or scholarly thought.
Now
includes expanded sections showing how cults and world religions view
God and the Bible. In the face of postmodern thought, it also answers
the question: What is Truth?
"If
you continue in My word, then you are truly disciples of Mine; and
you will know the truth, and the truth will make you free."
John 8:31b-32
Why is it
important to trust the Bible? Without it, or if it is less than a
perfect revelation, we would never be able to know the one true and
perfect God! Through this Divine revelation, we have been given God's
message of salvation, without which the whole world would be without
hope. It shouldn't surprise us that the Devil, whose only weapons are
lies and deception, would attack the very foundation of our knowledge
of God. The success of this tactic, in modern times, is borne out by
statistics showing that former church attenders are those most likely
to convert to Islam, Mormonism, the Jehovah's Witness or to
outrightly abandon the church for rational skepticism or neo-paganism.
Heaven and earth will pass away, but my words will never pass away.
Matthew 24:35
