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?
Are you ready?

GETTING A RIDE
ON THE ROAD TO LIFE
You will exist forever. The question is, where? Disobeying God is the road to death, and we have all disobeyed God:
For all have sinned [disobeyed God] and fall short of the glory of God. - Romans 3:23
The consequence of sin is death. You will exist experiencing death forever.
For the wages of sin is death... - Romans 6:23a
But there is GOOD News! You can have life!
...but the free gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord. - Romans 6:23b
God demonstrates His own love toward us, in that while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us. - Romans 5:8
Instead of our experiencing death forever, Christ died in our place. Repent (turn away from disobeying God), believe this, trusting that Jesus truly did die in your place.
Therefore, having been justified by faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ. - Romans 5:1
