“I want to study the Bible, I just don’t know how,” said John. I’ve heard people say this time and time again. Reading and studying the Bible is not as difficult as people make it. A lot of times people just don’t know where to start. The key is TO start. Below you will find six steps to help you study God’s word. These are six steps that I’ve found useful in my own Bible study times.
Evidence leads to verdicts
On January - 1 - 2009
This isn’t quick witted Grissom leading detectives to the culprits but just as CSI investigators lead us to guilty criminals in today’s crime dramas, Josh McDowell follows the trail of evidence and answers challenging questions in his book “The New Evidence That Demands A Verdict
During his collegiate days, Josh an agnostic, began writing a paper to disprove the claims of Christianity. Over the course of this research Josh converted to Christianity based on the evidence he discovered during his research. The material of The New Evidence that Demands A Verdict is a compilation of Josh McDowell’s notes for a lecture series he spoke at called “Christianity: Hoax or History?”
Upon looking at the table of contents, The New Evidence That Demands A Verdict answers such questions as:
- How is the Bible Unique?
- How did we get the Bible?
- Is the Old and New Testament Historically Reliable?
- Is Jesus who he really says he is?
- How does Christianity stand up when looked through the lens of archaeology?
- As well as many other questions.
I was first introduced to this book back in the early 1990’s. A high school buddy and I were tasked with defending the Christian faith in a courtroom setting. The collection of information that Josh has bound within this text provided a great wealth of evidence to the validity of the Christian faith. This book is for anyone who is exploring the Christian faith or who is desiring to grow in their understanding of overwhelming evidence of the Christian faith.
