[Ali Imran]

For your info, I'm no theological scholar, and am not even in any positions of lay leadership or service in a church. I'm just your average self-taught theist. From henceforth, I'd probably just mention fulfilled prophecies, archaeological discoveries, and the Bible's amazing unity to build a compelling case for the divine origin and historical reliability of the Bible. If you wish to seek the reference sources or verses, suss them out yourself. You won't be spoon-fed.

Yes, none of us here is a theological scholar. Far from it.

As I've told you, there are truths in the Bible. But there are also falsehoods. This is evident because of the law of noncontradiction. So yes, there are fulfilled prophecies as well as failed prophecies. Some things mentioned in the Bible are not archaeologically proven, like the Exodus. A few million people wandering in the desert for 40 years will surely leave behind some archaeological remains but none has been found and unlikely to ever be found.

And no. the Bible is far from uniting the Christians. The Bible is the main cause of confusion in Christendom. The Unitarians and the Trinitarians, both use the same Bible to prove their theological position. How can the Bible support two conflicting theological tenets? Also, the law-abiding Christians and the lawless Christians, both use the same Bible to come to their conclusion about the Law. How come?

Thank you.
