Atheist's Attacks
Answering Humanist's Accusations Against the Bible
The Bible and "False" Prophecy
This could be the end of the Bible and Christianity.
THE HUMANIST'S CLAIM: False Prophecies in the Bible
Prophecies in the Bible further strengthen the Humanist view. Because many of the prophecies turned out to be false, they prove the Bible is not inerrant.
The Bible itself contains a test for determining whether a prophecy was inspired by God. Deuteronomy 18:22 explains: “When a prophet speaketh in the name of the Lord, if the thing follow not, nor come to pass, that is the thing which the Lord hath not spoken, but the prophet hath spoken it presumptuously: thou shalt not be afraid of him.”
Applying this test to the Bible leads to one conclusion: the book contains many statements that were not inspired by God.
The prophecies in the Bible provide solid proof the Bible is true and inspired by God. Only God can know the future, and accurately describe that future. If the humanists can prove that some of the prophecies in the Bible are wrong... or even just one is wrong... they have destroyed the Bible and Christianity. Why? Because what Deuteronomy 18:22 says is true. If a prophet is wrong just once, then they are not a true prophet of the Lord.
A Little About Prophecy In The Bible
There are about 1,800 prophecies in the Bible, with about 300 of those being about the Messiah. So there are plenty for the humanist to choose from.
There are three types of prophecies:
- Prophecies that have already been 100% fulfilled
- Prophecies with a near term (already fulfilled) fulfillment and a far term (not yet fulfilled) fulfillment.
- Prophecies that will be fulfilled in our future (end times prophecies)
Let the epic battle begin. The fate of the world hangs in the balance. If the humanists prove there is even one false prophecy in the Bible, then Christianity is not true, Jesus has not defeated death... and our future is one of corruption and death. A future of nothing... we just become worm food
But, if every prophecy is the Bible is true, then we have life. Then the Bible is true and Jesus did pay our penalty for sin in full. Our physical death is not the end. Those who are trusting in Jesus will have eternal life, living with Jesus Christ our God and Savior forever.
The humanists have an easy task. Prove that just one of the over 1,800 Bible prophecies is false. Will they be successful? Will the Bible go down in disgrace... the biggest fraud in history? Or does God reign supreme?

GOD KNOWS YOU...
HE KNOWS EVERYTHING!
You cannot hide anything from God, and you can't hide from God:
'Can a man hide himself in hiding places So I do not see him?' declares the LORD 'Do I not fill the heavens and the earth?' declares the LORD. - Jeremiah 23:24
Imagine you have an SD card in your head that records every thought and dream. We record for a month and then rent a theater. All your friends are invited as we play that SD card on the big screen. How would you feel?
That's what God sees. He is disgusted and knows that because of your sin (those thoughts we all see on the big screen) you will never be with God. But God still loves you, and He made an incredible sacrifice for you. He died in your place.
You have a choice. Reject God... and get what you say you want... you'll spent eternity separated from God. And that means separated from EVERYTHING that is good. Think about that.
Or accept the gift God offers... trust that Jesus Christ died on the cross to pay the penalty you've earned (remember those thoughts on the SD card). Jesus paid your penalty in full. It is finished
There is no darkness or deep shadow Where the workers of iniquity may hide themselves. - Job 34:22
