How Can We Trust the Bible?
The Bible is one of the most criticized books in the world. While many of us as Christians accept the Bible as God's preserved word for us, inspired by the Holy Spirit, we cannot expect non-believers to regard it with the same reverence.

This post will not be a fully extensive argument regarding the accuracy of the scriptures.
