The Holy Script: Literally God’s Word or Man’s?

2 Timothy 3:15-16 “And that from a child thou hast known the holy scriptures, which are able to make thee wise unto salvation through faith which is in Christ Jesus. (16.) All scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness:”


Beloved there are those today that have saw fit to declare that the Holy Bible (66 books) are not literally God’s own words; I say these folks are wrong and are sadly deceived by Satan. We as Christians have two things we can without any doubt believe in, the first is that Jesus Christ is God and the Saviour of man-kind and second that the 66 books of the King James Bible is literally God’s words. There are some that go to great measures to disprove this very fact and have failed at every turn. They seek to find contradictions in it, then they seek to prove that certain events could never have happened by attempting to reenact them, and then there is the human part of it – how can we trust the writings of man. However after examining their attempt to disprove the inspiration of the Holy Script we find just how ignorant they are. We sometimes watch the discovery channel and the history channel on T.V. only to be amazed at the ignorance one will go in attempting to disprove the bible is truly God’s word. Beloved I will once again declare and prove that without a doubt the entire bible is God’s words. First of all they cannot reenact or explain the events in the bible nor can they disprove in any way that these events did not happen exactly as God said they did because they are not God! Matthew 19:26 “But Jesus beheld them, and said unto them, With men this is impossible; but with God all things are possible.” If God wants to part the Red Sea then He will, if God wants to create a big fish to swallow Jonah then He will, and etc. but let’s look at these facts, there are 66 books in the bible 40 plus writers over 1500 years and not one single contradiction, there are things and events that has happened that were spoken of long before they ever happened. The greatest of examples is Isaiah 40:22 “It is he that sitteth upon the circle of the earth, and the inhabitants thereof are as grasshoppers; that stretcheth out the heavens as a curtain, and spreadeth them out as a tent to dwell in:” This scripture was written about 600 – 700 B.C. however it was only proven when Columbus sailed to the new world. Another one would be the Apostasy 2 Thessalonians 2:3 “Let no man deceive you by any means: for that day shall not come, except there come a falling away first, and that man of sin be revealed, the son of perdition;” It is today that man does not endure sound doctrine however this verse was written around 51 – 52 A. D.

Other facts is this, “All scripture is given by inspiration of God” meaning it was divinely breathed which is proof that the Holy Script is verbally inspired. Let’s notice 2 Peter 1:20-21 “Knowing this first, that no prophecy of the scripture is of any private interpretation. (21.) For the prophecy came not in old time by the will of man: but holy men of God spake as they were moved by the Holy Ghost.” The bible was not man’s words as they spoke their will, but holy men of God, as they were moved by the Holy Spirit. John had no real idea what he was seeing as God took him to heaven, but wrote as God commanded him and because of this we have the book of Revelations. John who lived and died before 100 A.D. saw the tribulation period which included weapons of mass destruction, computers, car’s, jet planes, and etc. he had no idea what he was looking at but believed and wrote this book of the bible. The prophet Daniel gives us great proof of this fact Daniel 12:7-9 “And I heard the man clothed in linen, which was upon the waters of the river, when he held up his right hand and his left hand unto heaven, and sware by him that liveth for ever that it shall be for a time, times, and an half; and when he shall have accomplished to scatter the power of the holy people, all these things shall be finished. (8.) And I heard, but I understood not: then said I, O my Lord, what shall be the end of these things? (9.) And he said, Go thy way, Daniel: for the words are closed up and sealed till the time of the end.” Beloved be not deceived by those who are deceived by Satan, every word of the scripture are God’s very words and every event truly happened just as the scripture has declared.
