Is the Bible accurate? Nothing toasts the reputation of a journalist like inaccuracy. Newspaper articles are expected to contain facts and nothing but the facts. And this is what we’ve all come to expect in a newspaper article, accurate reporting absent of any bias. We should also expect the same high level of accuracy in the Bible; and, did you know that not one historic, scientific or prophetic error has ever been found in the bible? Critics and skeptics have scrutinized the Bible for thousands of years and the most common conclusion is not that the Bible contains an error, but that it may be the most reliable text ever encountered!

Is the Bible consistent? Have you ever thought about how you would have reacted if in chapter one your high school history book said George Washington was the first president of the United States, and then in Chapter four it said that Abraham Lincoln was the first president? Perhaps you’d think it was a typo, an honest mistake. But, what if you found other inconsistencies as well? You’d begin to wonder if you could really trust the information in that history book. Guess how many inconsistencies are in the Bible? That’s right, none! But, hold on a second…we still have to kick this up another notch. Most history books have a few authors, are written over a year or two and have at least a handful of mistakes. On the other hand, the Bible was written by more than 40 authors over 1500 years and has not one mistake. Now that’s consistency!
