How I Know For Sure My Bible Is Inspired By God (1 of 5)
Series:How Do We Know for Sure That the Bible Is God's Word?

Hebrews 1:1-2
Today we are going to begin a brand new series. It will be a brief series about 5 or 6 lessons. This series is entitled "How Do We Know For Sure That The Bible Is God's Word."

The Romans in the movie spoke in Latin. And the Hebrews in the movie spoke in Aramaic.
The universal language during the time of Jesus was Greek so the New Testament was penned in Greek. And everyone in the world, the educated world, at the time of Christ's life was Greek. They understood the language of Greek. So when the authors of the New Testament wrote down the gospels and the epistles of the New Testament they wrote them in the language of Greek.
