The Bible Is Fact

The Bible begins with the creation of the heavens and the earth, and it ends with the creation of a new heaven and a new earth. Some say and believe that the Bible is just fiction. Some say the Bible is only a historical book of Israel. And some say the Bible has nothing to do with them because Jesus is only the Jewish God of Israel. However, the Bible is a fact and is confirmed by science. The Bible surely has something to do with all mankind and their salvation.

When we study human history, we can find one day missing. We can find the answer to that mystery in the Bible.
Jos 10:12 "O sun, stand still over Gibeon, O moon, over the Valley of Aijalon." So the sun stood still … The sun stopped in the middle of the sky and delayed going down about a full day.
In order for Joshua to win the battle, God made the sun stand still in the middle of the sky about a full day. Here we can find one clue for a day lost in our history. Let's find another one to solve this mystery.
2 Ki 20:11 The LORD made the shadow go back the ten steps it had gone down on the stairway of Ahaz.
We can find the lost 40 minutes here. These two episodes strongly support that the Bible is a fact.
cf) 360÷10=36 / 1 day=1,440 minutes / 1,440÷36=40 minutes=10 degree
The Bible also gives us much knowledge of the sky.
Job 26:7 He spreads out the northern skies over empty space; he suspends the earth over nothing.
This fact proved to be true in recent times. How did Job know this fact 3,500 years ago without an astronomical telescope?
Job 36:27 He draws up the drops of water, which distill as rain to the streams; the clouds pour down their moisture and abundant showers fall on mankind.
This describes the process of formation and fall of rain. It was proven by scientists in recent times. How did Job get this scientific knowledge 3,500 years ago? This also proves that the Bible has much fact and agrees with science.
The Bible has lots of historical facts. Let's find out.
Isa 45:1 To Cyrus, whose right hand I take hold of to subdue nations before him.
This prophecy of Cyrus by the Prophet Isaiah was fulfilled 170 years later.
Ezr 1:1 In the first year of Cyrus king of Persia. … The LORD, the God heaven, has given me all the kingdoms of the earth.
Da 8:20 The two-horned ram that you saw represents the kings of Media and Persia.
God showed Daniel a nation to appear in the future, and He named it. As prophesied in the Bible, Media and Persia rose after Babylon.
Like this, all the remaining prophecies of the Bible are surely to happen.
Rev 21:1 I saw a new heaven and a new earth, for the first heaven and the first earth had passed away.
Here the first heaven and the first earth represent our physical life, and a new heaven and a new earth our spiritual life to come. We will be able to achieve the spiritual life through our faithful life on earth.

We studied that the Bible is fact. Unbelief of the Bible causes men to waver in their belief of God. Believe in God and receive His blessing of salvation on the last day. God bless you.
