100,000 Documents from 2000 years ago prove Bible is Accurate!
EXCLUSIVE FROM PROF. CLIFFORD THIES, Ph.D.:
Scientists have revealed insights from ancient scrolls buried by the eruption of Mount Vesuvius nearly 2,000 years ago, after an AI breakthrough helped uncover some of their secrets.
PROF. THIES WRITES:
During the 19th Century, it was argued that we have no reliable sources concerning the Bible. By similar argument, we have no reliable sources for Plato or Aristotle, of Homer, or of Alexander the Great.
All we had for any of these texts or persons of history, were copies of copies, and frequently translations of translations.
Actually, even two hundred years ago we had a variety of artifacts: engravings in stone, surviving coins, and ancient ruins. But, what to make of the Bible and other texts from the ancient world?
Then, over the past two hundred years we have recovered more than 100,000 documents from the ancient world. You are sure to know of some of these:
1) The Dead Sea Scrolls
2)
The
Egyptian
Oxyrhynchus
Papyri
3)
the
clay
tablets
of
Mesopotamia
The circumstances of the preservation of these ancient texts are amazing. Who would have thought that being covered over by a volcanic eruption could be a way of preserving an ancient text for two thousand years?
The truth is we know a lot more about the ancient world today than we did two hundred years ago.
For example, modern Bibles usually footnote a few verses that crept into the Bible over the centuries, not being in the most ancient and reliable manuscripts. But, just a few. The overwhelming majority of the Bible has been affirmed by the recovery of ancient texts.
The
obvious
conclusion
is
that
what
we
have
of
the
Bible
and
of
many
other
ancient
texts
is
credible.
That
our
scribes
have
served
us
exceedingly
well.
And
that
critics
of
the
Bible
were
engaging
in
prejudiced
and
self-serving
speculation.
The
validation
of
our
ancient
texts
has
given
credence
to
folklore,
oral
histories
and
other
methods
of
communicating
from
one
to
another
generation,
especially
when
corroborated
by
artifacts,
by
geology
and
other
evidence.
The validation should affirm, at least to some extent, the wisdom we have received from the past.
