1 The Infallible Wrd f Gd Senir Pastr Prince Guneratnam ABOUT THE BIBLE The Bible is hated by Satan-inspired men. It has been despised, disputed, debated and derided in all f histry. Tday it is under attack and prhibited in sme restricted cuntries. Vltaire, a French philspher and an atheist said, One hundred years frm his day and age, the Bible will be a frgtten bk. Tday, his qute is frgtten but nt the Bible. His hme became the depsitry fr the French bible after his death. The Bible is the mst translated, published, sld and read bk tday It is a life-changing bk. The survival f the Bible is a miraculus act f Gd. Matthew 24:35 NLT Heaven and earth will disappear, but my wrds will never disappear. THERE ARE MANY PROOFS THAT MAKES THE BIBLE GOD S BOOK FOR US It s survival frm attacks f Satan -Inspired, sinful and wicked men. It s authrs The Bible is made up f 66 Bks by 40 authrs and yet it has ne unified theme abut Gd s plan f salvatin fr mankind frm Genesis t Revelatin. Jesus is in every bk f the Bible. (see Appendix belw) The 66 Bks were written ver 1600 years by different authrs and yet nne cntradict each ther. They lived in different time, years (perids), culture and backgrunds. Sme were rdinary peple called by Gd. Sme were Kings and sme were prisners. Lived in diverse cnditins, in banishment, prisns, and have yet ne and same stry Jesus, the Messiah. The metaphrs, analgies, illustratins and events are abut Gd s plan t redeem man and t declare Gd s plan t live a victrius life Bth the Old Testament and New Testament spke f Jesus. Luke 24:27 NLT Then Jesus tk them thrugh the writings f Mses and all the prphets, explaining frm all the Scriptures the things cncerning himself. JESUS TRUSTED THE BIBLE Sme say, I trust Jesus but nt the Bible.

2 Matthew 5:18 NLT Jesus said I tell yu the truth, until heaven and earth disappear, nt even the smallest detail f Gd s law will disappear until its purpse is achieved. Jhn 10:35a NLT And yu knw that the Scriptures cannt be altered. Jesus des nt tell us t knw the Wrd but t bey the Wrd Luke 11:28 NLT But even mre blessed are all wh hear the wrd f Gd and put it int practice. THE BIBLE GIVES US A FRESH START Withut the Bible: We will never knw Gd lves us. We can never knw Jesus t be ur Saviur. We will never knw that Jesus death and resurrectin was t pay the penalty fr ur sins. We will never knw there is a place that Gd has prepared fr us thrugh Jesus Christ. We will never knw the will f Gd r Gd. Having the Bible, gives us hpe fr a fresh start. 2 Crinthians 5:17 NLT This means that anyne wh belngs t Christ has becme a new persn. The ld life is gne; a new life has begun! James 1:18a NLT He chse t give birth t us by giving us his true wrd. Jhn 6:36b NLT And the very wrds I have spken t yu are spirit and life. D.L. Mdy, a Pastr and evangelist said, The Bible was given t change ur lives. N wnder, Satan thrugh the flesh des its best t keep us frm reading, studying and hearing the Wrd f Gd. HOW DOES THE BIBLE GIVE US A FRESH START? 2 Timthy 3:16-17 NLT 16 All Scripture is inspired by Gd and is useful t teach us what is true and t make us realize what is wrng in ur lives. It crrects us when we are wrng and teaches us t d what is right. 17 Gd uses it t prepare and equip his peple t d every gd wrk. The Bible teaches us t live ut the purpse f Gd fr ur lives. Gd s Wrd equips us nce we are brn again. Gd s Wrd shws us the way t life A Teacher Teaches us what is true, what is wrng

3 Gd s Wrd disciplines us Rebukes and crrects It crrects us when we are wrng and teaches us what is right Gd s Wrd trains us Equips us Gd s Wrd prepares us and equips us. Gd s Wrd cnfirms us as children f Gd Gd s Wrd is fr His peple. CONCLUSION Gd s Wrd gives us hpe t a wrld that ffers n hpe. Rmans 15:4 NLT Such things were written in the Scriptures lng ag t teach us. And the Scriptures give us hpe and encuragement as we wait patiently fr Gd s prmises t be fulfilled. Fr this reasn, we need t make time fr Gd s Wrd daily. Psalms 119:114 NLT Yu are my refuge and my shield; yur wrd is my surce f hpe. Psalms 119:105 NLT Yur wrd is a lamp t guide my feet and a light fr my path.
