The Bible: God's Holy Word

2 Peter 1:16-21
JESUS CHRIST said, ''You search the Scriptures, for in them you think you have eternal life; and these are they which testify of Me'' (John 5: 39). A student at Baylor University said, ''I want to understand myself better, therefore, I am studying the Scripture about God.

There is an old couplet that has survived the ages because it is true: ''This book will keep you from sin. Sin will keep you from this book.'' Satan knowing the power of God's Word desires and designs to reduce our confidence in and divert our attention from the Scripture. I have uninhibited confidence in it. My dear friend Zig Ziglar said, ''I have no difficulty believing that a perfect God can produce a perfect Book.''
Yet, this miracle-working Book has its major detractors. Some of which minister in the house of God. One of our missionaries from Kenya recently told me there is a great spiritual awakening there now with literally thousands being saved. Myriads are turning from the Moslem faith to Christ. To counter this spiritual awakening the Moslem's have made a film to be shown around the country. It opens by showing a picture of the Bible and the Koran side by side and asking the question: ''If God were going to reveal himself to man which of these two books would He choose as the means of doing it?''
The film continues by showing some liberal American ministers speaking critically of the Bible and minimizing its divine origin. Next several mullahs speak of their Koran as a holy book.
The film concludes by once again showing the two books and asking, ''Now, which of these two books do you think God would choose if He ...
