What Does The Bible Say?

Arnie and Fred begin this new episode on what does the Bible say by discussing why the Bible was written. We suspect that most people have given little thought to the reasons the Bible was written. They don't seem to realize that it is the total revelation of God's will - that it really is the Word of God. Many it seems regard it as just containing the opinions of religious men - men that they may or may not hold in especially high regard, for one reason or another. Only a few people actually realize or accept the Bible as having been God - breathed as it says. We begin by looking at what Jesus had to say to the rich man and Lazarus in Luke 16. We see that some of the purposes the Bible was written are revealed in those passages. The first purpose we see is that the nature of God is revealed there. We talk about the physical creation and the evidence it provides to show the existence of God. We then note that a different method was needed to reveal God's will to man. We look at that method. We begin our next point by noticing that the Bible reveals the purpose of man, why we are here, what God expects of us. We run out of time before we can complete this point. We will begin here in the next episode. Take about 30-minutes to listen in on what we have to say. Have your Bible handy so you can verify that.
