The lottery just reached $1 billion and millions of people are betting
they’ll win. And everyone on the planet is placing a bet as to
whether or not the Bible is true. You’re not betting with money but with your
eternal soul. Jesus said, “What will it profit a man if he gains the whole world
and loses his soul?” (Mark 8:36). You will either be
right or wrong. Before you place your bet, you’d be wise to carefully examine
some evidence you weren’t taught in school.
The
evidence the Bible is true is found in the many predictions about the future
that it makes, which have come to pass. Hundreds of Bible prophecies that have been fulfilled is irrefutable proof the Bible is true. Jesus
fulfilled more than 300 prophecies. The probability of one man
fulfilling just 48 prophecies is one in 10 to the 157th power. That’s enough
proof to place your bet.
But what about evolution? You’re betting that life arose from non-life and that all life on
earth arose from a molecule from a “primordial soup.” You’re betting that every
elephant and every ant, every fish and every bird, every person and every gnat,
every tree and every blade of grass in the entire world came from this one
molecule. Scientists have purposely tried to create life in a
laboratory to prove that life arose accidentally with no intelligence
involved! They’ve never done it.
Consider
the complexity of the human body. For example, how can evolution produce an eye? The body has 206
bones, 600 muscles, respiratory system, and circulatory system, which are all coordinated
to work together. Each part is useless without being coordinated with the
other parts. Take away the brain and it doesn’t work. Take away the heart or
the lungs and it doesn’t work. All the parts of the
human body had to come together at the same time. Evolution can’t
explain this.
The
complex design of the human body had to come from an Intelligent Designer. Your computer has
many complex parts that work together as a unit, and you know an intelligent
person designed and coordinated each part so that it can function. The same
can be said for the human body.
This
isn’t hard to figure out. Which makes more sense? I’m betting my soul that the
Bible and everything Jesus taught about the afterlife is true. I hope
you’ll make the right choice. www.makinglifecount.net
