2 The Ostrich Syndrome* There is a principle which is a bar against all information, which is proof against all argument, and which cannot fail to keep man in everlasting ignorance. That principle is condemnation before investigation - Edmund Spencer (Don t know / Can t know / Don t want to know)

3 I believe the Bible is the best gift God has ever given to man. All the good from the Saviour of the world is communicated to us through this book Abraham Lincoln

4 The Bible is worth all the other books that have ever been printed Patrick Henry

5 The Bible is no mere book, but it is a Living Creature with a power that conquers all that oppose it Napoleon

6 It is impossible to rightly govern the world without God and Bible. George Washington

7 I believe that the existence of the Bible is the greatest benefit to the human race. Any attempt to belittle it, I believe, is a crime against humanity. Immanuel Kant

8 Pile them, if you will, on the left side of your study table; but place your own Holy Bible on the right side all by itself, all alone and with a wide gap between them

9 For there is a gulf between it and the so-called sacred books of the East which severs the one from the other utterly hopelessly Professor M. Montiero-Williams

10 This book had to be written by one of three people: good men, bad men or God.

11 It couldn t have been written by good men because they said it was inspired by the revelation of God. Good men don t lie and deceive.

12 It couldn t have been written by bad men because bad men would not write something that would condemn themselves.

13 It leaves only one conclusion It was given by divine inspiration of God. John Wesley

14 The Bible 2 Critical discoveries: Integrated message system 66 separate books Penned by 40 different individuals Over thousands of years in which every detail is anticipated by deliberate, skillful, design! Provably from outside our time domain The Bible tells the end from the beginning

15 The Bible Since God has the technology to create us He certainly has the means to get a message to us. But how does God authenticate His message? How do we know the message is really from Him and not a contrivance or a fraud?

18 Divine Authentication Isaiah 46:9-10

19 From Outside Time Isaiah 57:15

20 606 BC - Babylon King Nebuchadnezzar laid siege to Jerusalem Daniel taken captive as a teenager Beginning of Servitude of the Nation 70 year captivity (Jer 29:10)

21 Servitude of the Nation Jeremiah 29:4,10

22 587 BC - Babylon King Nebuchadnezzar lays siege to Jerusalem This time Jerusalem is destroyed Beginning of Desolations of Jerusalem 70 year rest for the land (Jer 25:11-12)

23 Desolations of Jerusalem Jeremiah 25:11-12

24 God s Timekeeping! Why was this day so important? Haggai 2:15-18 It was the day the desolations ended

25 The Desolations of Jerusalem At the very time the Babylonian army was surrounding Jerusalem, Ezekiel, hundreds of miles away in Babylon, is told to record, - 10 th day of Tebeth, 587 BC

26 The Desolations of Jerusalem At the very time the Babylonian army was surrounding Jerusalem, Ezekiel, hundreds of miles away in Babylon, is told to record, - 10 th day of Tebeth, 587 BC Haggai, nails the date they ended, - 24 th day of Kislev, 518 BC

27 The Desolations of Jerusalem At the very time the Babylonian army was surrounding Jerusalem, Ezekiel, hundreds of miles away in Babylon, is told to record, - 10 th day of Tebeth, 587 BC Haggai, nails the date they ended, - 24 th day of Kislev, 518 BC The interval is 25,200 days, - 70 years of 360 days each. (Cf. 2 Kings 25:1; Jeremiah 52:4)

28 Precision of Prophecy 606 BC 1 st Siege 537 BC Decree of Cyrus Servitude of the Nation 70 yrs 25,200 days 19 yrs 19 yrs 70 yrs 25,200 days Desolations of Jerusalem 3 rd Siege 10 th Tebeth 587 BC Decree of Darius 24 th Kislev 518 BC

29 Unexplained Prophecy? Ezekiel gives us a mathematical prophecy concerning the judgment on the Nation:

30 Unexplained Prophecy? Ezekiel 4:1-6

31 Unexplained Prophecy? Ezekiel 4:1-6

32 Unexplained Prophecy? Ezekiel 4:1-6

33 Unexplained Prophecy? Ezekiel prophecies a total of 430 years of judgment against Israel as a Nation 70 years are accounted for in Babylon We are left with 360 years of judgment unaccounted for. However we are given a clue in Leviticus 26...

34 Unexplained Prophecy? Lev 26:14-18

35 Unexplained Prophecy? Lev 26:14-18

36 Unexplained Prophecy? This seven time more is repeated four times in this one chapter (v18, 21,24,28) As prophesied, Israel were punished for their disobedience with 70 yrs in Babylon But that still leaves 360yrs unaccounted Israel still did not hearken unto Him So if we apply Leviticus 26 as indicated...

37 Unexplained Prophecy? If we multiply the remaining 360 years x7 We find a potential 907,200 days until Ezekiel s prophecy would be fulfilled.

48 Are there Hidden Messages in the Bible? Proverbs 25:2

49 A Riddle Who is the oldest man in the Bible? Methuselah; he lived 969 years. Yet he died before his father! How can that be? His father was Enoch At age 65, something happened; he then walked with God 300 years

50 Methuselah muth, a root that means death shalach, which means to bring, or to send forth. His death shall bring.

51 The Year of the Flood Methuselah Lamech 182 Noah 600

52 Genealogy of Genesis 5 Adam Seth Enosh Kenan Mahalalel Jared Enoch Methuselah Lamech Noah

53 Adam adomah, means man."

54 Seth seth, which means appointed." Eve said, For God hath appointed me another seed instead of Abel, whom Cain slew. Genesis 4:25

55 Enosh which means mortal, frail, or miserable. It is from the root anash, to be incurable; used of a wound, grief, woe, sickness, or wickedness.

56 Kenan which can mean sorrow, dirge, or elegy.

57 Mahalalel which means blessed or praise ; and El, the name for God. The Blessed God.

58 Jared (Yared) from the verb yaradh, meaning shall come down.

59 Enoch which means commencement, or Teaching.

60 Methuselah muth, a root that means death shalach, which means to bring, or to send forth. His death shall bring.

61 Lamech a root still evident today in our own English word, lament or lamentation. Despairing.

62 Noah which is derived from nacham, to bring relief or comfort, Comfort, or Rest

63 Genealogy of Genesis 5 : Adam : Seth : Enosh : Cainan : Mahalaleel : Jared : Enoch : Methuselah : Lamech : Noah - Man - Appointed - Mortal - Sorrow - Blessed God - Come down - Teaching - His death shall bring - Despairing - Comfort

64 Genealogy of Genesis 5 Man (is) Appointed Mortal Sorrow; (but) (the) Blessed God Shall Come down Teaching (that) His death shall bring (the) Despairing Comfort, Rest

65 The Book of Ruth Types & Shadows

66 The Book of Ruth When Elimelech married Naomi, they brought forth Mahlon and Chilion and were forced to leave Bethlehem-Judah. Elimelech died and Naomi became Mara. Later, both Ruth and Orpah (gentiles) had the chance to return to the God of Israel. Orpah turned back and sought false gods. Ruth returned to the God of Israel. Ruth found grace in the eyes of her kinsman redeemer who then purchased her and she was joined to Boaz. (What the near kinsman could not do her Boaz did). Ruth married her Boaz and brought forth Obed.

67 The Book of Ruth Names Meaning Elimelech = God is my king Naomi = Pleasure Bethlehem-Judah = The house of bread and praise Mara = Bitterness Mahlon = Sickness Chilion = Pining Ruth = Beauty Orpah = Double minded Boaz = Strength Near kinsman = The Law Obed = Worship

68 The Book of Ruth When God is my king married pleasure, they brought forth sickness and pining and were forced to leave the house of bread & praise. God is my king died and pleasure became bitterness. Later, both beauty and double-minded (gentiles) had the chance to return to the God of Israel. Doubleminded turned back and sought false gods. Beauty returned to the God of Israel. Beauty found grace in the eyes of her kinsman redeemer who then purchased her and she was joined to strength. (What the Law could not do her strength did). Beauty married her strength and brought forth worship.

69 The Church Gentiles married to sickness Ephesians 2:1 Converted to the God of Israel through Jewish witness Rom 3:2 Happen on the field of the Kinsman John 15:16 Introduced to the Kinsman by and un-named servant Jn16:13 The Kinsman leaves handfuls of purpose Romans 8:28 She recognises her poverty before Him Romans 3:23-24 Why have I found Grace in Your sight? Ephesians 2:8 She is to wash and cleanse herself before meeting her Kinsman Ephesians 5:25-26 She finds Him at the threshing floor Ps119:67/Luk21:36 She seeks to be under His authority 1 Cor 6:20 She simply rests, knowing that He will complete everything Phil 1:6/Col1:13-14
