I Believe the Bible (1 of 4)
Series: Call Me Crazy
Joey Rodgers
Psalm 19:7-11
Have you ever done anything crazy? I mean just ridiculous - even ludicrous! Like jump from a perfectly good airplane or go bungee jumping. One of the craziest things I ever did (and lived to tell about it) was lean out over cliff that dropped some 2000 ft. to snap a picture of my feet...
In my defense, I was 22, single, and apparently stupid. In my stupidity, I had a 6'5'' (15) yr. old wrap his arms around my waste while two other teenagers sat on him - not one of my finer moments - but the picture was really cool.
Truth is we all DO crazy things. We SAY crazy things - and we BELIEVE crazy things. Today, we're starting a series entitled, Call Me Crazy - to investigate and substantiate some of the beliefs we hold dear that other people consider us crazy b/c we believe them. According to the 1 Peter - we have a obligation to know why we believe what we believe.
But in your hearts set apart Christ as Lord. Always be prepared to give an answer to everyone who asks you to give the reason for the hope that you have... 1 Peter 3:16
So over the next (4) week, we're going to discuss why we believe in the Bible, in God's existence, in creation, and in the resurrection. Let's begin w/ the credibility of the Bible.
I heard of a man on a plane who was reading his Bible when the man next to him remarked, ''You don't really believe the Bible do you?'' The man replied, ''As a matter of fact, I do!'' ''But it's just a bunch of fairy tales. Like the guy who was swallowed by a whale. What's his name?'' ''Jonah. And yes, I believe he was swallowed by a whale and survived to tell about it.'' The man asked, ''Can you tell me how a man can be swallowed by a whale and live to tell about it?'' ''I can't, but I suppose when I get to heaven, I'll ask him.'' Smugly, the man said, ''But, what if Jonah's not in heaven?'' W/out missing a beat, he said, ''Then I guess you can ask him!''
