Answering Humanist's Accusations Against the Bible
This page provides a scripture index to the answers to humanist accusations against the Bible.
Job's response to God when God asked him, "Where were you when I created everything?" was: "Behold, I am insignificant; what can I reply to You? I lay my hand on my mouth." - Job 40:4
Humanists state on their web site: "The Bible is an unreliable authority because it contains numerous contradictions. Logically, if two statements are contradictory, at least one of them is false. The biblical contradictions therefore prove that the book has many false statements and is not infallible."
Is this true? Absolutely not. On these web pages we go through each accusation, contradiction, claim, and question raised on the humanist web page, in the order they are raised. Click here for the subject index. Every one is answered.
The reason why humanists reject God and the Bible is not because there are contradictions in the Bible or unanswered questions... it is because they do not want to be accountable to the God who created them. This is plain in scripture: "This is the judgment, that the Light has come into the world, and men loved the darkness rather than the Light, for their deeds were evil." - John 3:19
Job describes them in Job 21:13-15 "They spend their days in prosperity, and suddenly they go down to Sheol (hell). They say to God, ‘Depart from us! We do not even desire the knowledge of Your ways. Who is the Almighty, that we should serve Him, and what would we gain if we entreat Him?'" Job is the oldest book in the Bible. Rejection of God is nothing new. People reject God... even reject all knowledge of God. Yet God is patient and loving. He continues to give everyone second chance after second chance to turn from their own desires... to give up the empty excuses and accept the free gift He offers.

What you believe does not determine reality nor truth. That would make you god. But you ARE NOT god. You don't control the universe. You cannot change reality. Let's try an experiment. At about midnight stand in the middle of the road just around a corner where it is hard to be seen... at night, wearing all black. When headlights start lighting up the curve, just believe that whatever is coming does not exist. Stand firm, if you don't believe a vehicle is coming, then nothing is coming. You are perfectly safe... until reality hits.
You are now standing before Jesus. You are dead. It's judgment day. You don't want to believe it's Jesus and you will be judged. But it is. That's reality.
Judgment only takes a moment, the verdict is obvious, and you know it is correct. You are guilty. You've lied, stolen and sexually lusted after others (Matthew 5:28)... you have disobeyed God. Trusting Jesus is the only answer, but it's too late. You had your last chance just before you died.
You know it's no use to protest, but still you scream out, 'I didn't know!'
But you did know. All of creation declared God's glory, His invisible attributes, and His power. You have no excuse. You willingly rejected Jesus Christ (God).
Is this you? Are you saying, 'Hell isn't so bad, I'll be with my friends.' You know that's not true. There are no friends in hell. No beer... not even water to cool your lips. There is NOTHING good in hell.
So I beg you, consider these words. Trust Jesus as having paid your penalty for every way you've have rejected God. Trust Jeus to save you from hell and bring you into the presense of God.
Trust Jesus. Believe in the Lord Jesus, and you will be saved. - Acts 16:31
