Science PROVES the BIBLE is True

[joshua 1 9]

Yes, Jericho has a very long history, and its first walls were built as early as about 8000 BC (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wall_of_Jericho). However, it appears that the Bronze Age city of Jericho 'fell in the 16th century at the end of the Middle Bronze Age; the calibrated carbon remains from its City-IV destruction layer dating to 1617-1530 BCE. Notably this carbon dating c. 1573 BCE confirmed the accuracy of the stratigraphic dating c. 1550 by Kenyon.' https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jericho#Bronze-Age .

'Tell es-Sultan remained unoccupied from the end of the 15th century to the 10th-9th centuries BCE, when the city was rebuilt.' https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jericho#Iron_Age .

The bible-archeology website says that the town was destroyed when it was occupied by the Egyptians in 1580 BC, and that mass graves outside the wall may provide evidence of this Egyptian conquest - http://www.bibe-archaeology.info/bible_city_jericho.htm

The archaeological date for the destruction of Jericho is about 300 years before the 13th-century date implied by the book of Joshua, and 'scholars are virtually unanimous that the book of Joshua holds little of historical value' - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Battle_of_Jericho. I'm afraid that this can't be said to prove the truth and accuracy of the Bible.

Thanks for bringing this to my attention. I will be sure to edit this article to get the atheistic lies out of it.

WHERE ARE THE SCIENTIFIC EVIDENCE FOR TALKING SNAKES?

I talk to animals and birds all the time. Most people talk to their pets. We do not always use a verbal language. With God He does not talk to us in an auditory way. He gives us wisdom, knowledge and understanding. Are you even prepared to get into discussions about language? This seems to be a subject you know nothing about.

Just like DNA corrects it's own copy errors.

Maybe can elaborate on non-methylated DNA and its methylation a bit to explain exactly how this is supposed to be related to numerlogy?

I talk to animals and birds all the time. Most people talk to their pets.

Again, I am merely asking for scientific evidence - not your personal opinions and assertions.

I would like to learn about the scientific evidence for the following:

1. That snake can talk
2. That wooden sticks can turn into snakes
3. That burning bushes can talk
4. That angels exists
5. That demons exists
6. That demons can posses pigs and people
7. That prayer works
8. That science can prove things to be true

Surely, if science have proven the bible true, as you claim it has, then it should be easy for you to give a science ignorant person as me a few easy understood references to the scientific literature about this, should it not be?

We do not always use a verbal language.

Why are other ways of communicating relevant for talking snakes?

With God He does not talk to us in an auditory way.

Are you saying the talking snake was god?

He gives us wisdom, knowledge and understanding.

I believe the Bible says humans was given this by eating an apple. Is that correct? If so I want to add to my list of requested evidence the scientific evidence that eating an apple can do this.

Are you even prepared to get into discussions about language?

I am not discussing anything, I am asking you to present the scientific evidence you claim exist!

You may be right about all you said, your may be able to talk with animals, they may even had talked back to you, but this is irrelevant as scientific evidence. Like I said, personal opinions and experiences is not, and will never be, scientific evidence. At most it is anecdotal evidence, but it is not facts.

This seems to be a subject you know nothing about.

It is true, I know very little about talking snakes but at least I know stonewalls is not part of the core belief Christians carries. Talking snake are though. That is why I am not interested in the possible scientific conclusion about the rubble of a stonewall but rather talking snakes.

I DO NOT CARE ABOUT STONE WALLS!

WHERE ARE THE SCIENTIFIC EVIDENCE FOR TALKING SNAKES?

I WASN'T ADDRESSING YOU SO I DON'T CARE WHAT
YOU'RE INTERESTED IN!!!! IN WAS ADDRESSING THe TOPIC OF JERICHO, DIDN'T EVEN SEE ANY OF YOUR STUPID COMMENTS!! BUT THEN I GUESS YOU HAVE TROUBLE WITH YOUR EYESIGHT AND COULDN'T READ TOO WELL SO I WILL TYPE LARGER AND IN DIFFERENT COLORS TO HELP Y0U SEE BETTER---I HOPE YOU HAVEN'T BROKEN YOUR GLASSES!!

If you believe what you like in the gospels

The gospels are fine. NO problem. There are plenty of people that would be doing good to know what the disciples knew 2,000 years ago. For me you have to take everything all the way back to Moses. God gave MOSES ALL of His plan of redemption and restoration. Nothing was added to what God gave to Moses. So when people tell me something about the Bible then I want to look to see what Moses. The people that came after Moses only better explains what Moses tells us.

People like to talk about Paul when they talk about the Law. For me I like to go to David and the 119 psalm. That is where I really learned to understand and appreciate the Law of God. From David, not Paul. David talks about his LOVE for the commandments of God. The reason is that God wants what is best for us. He wants us to be healthy, live a long life and to prosper in what we do. She God shows us the way to go that is best for us. If a parent loves a child then the parent wants what is best for the child. God does not want us to harm ourselves or get involved in what is not good for us.
119:47 "And I will delight myself in thy commandments, which I have loved".

However the problem is that Moses doesn't tell us anything.

... I can sum up the WHOLE Bible in ONE word: "LOVE". From this we know that: "God is LOVE" ...

• Nahum 1:6
• Joshua 8:2
• Jeremiah 10:10
• Psalms 2:8-11

Lots of love ...

I think this thread is really interesting. Correlation between belief and historical accuracy is fascinating. I can hardly wait for the bit where we're shown how Science proves the Bible is true!

 

[Not_By_Chance]

And that is not an answer, AT ALL, to his question.
He asked: Is there evidence for the Exodus from Egypt? (And I'm bolding it to make sure you don't miss it)

And I answered his question. Watch the video - there's too much information to summarise it in a forum thread. Of course, if you really don't want to see the evidence then just carry on pretending that it doesn't exist.

Anyone can make a documentary. Could you reference any academic papers that demonstrate this evidence?

It depends which parts of the Bible you are referring to. Science can't prove or disprove the Genesis acount of the creation of the universe, but since the more we find out about the universe and about life's complexities strongly suggests that the reality we find ourseves in can't have arisen on its own, it seems perfectly reasonable to me to conclude that both were made by some force and the God of the Bible seems to be the most likely. Also, many archeological finds and other evidence have confirmed the historical reliability of the Biblical texts, despite previous skepticism. A guy called Brian Edwards seems to know a lot about it. Have a look at some of his work here. If you are really interested in finding out more about why the Bible is so special, I would recommend these two works by Brian Edwards, "Why 66? The Canon of Scripture" and "The Authentic Christ."

You suggest that "academic papers" are somehow a requirement to demonstrate something. Do you worship the god of science to such a degree? Do prosecution lawyers use academic papers when they are presenting their forensic evidence in court? Of course not. Can you not just have an open mind and see what this guy has to say? I suspect that anyone who thows up objections before having seen the evidence are just using that as an excuse to convince themselves that they don't need to consider other possible explanations (e.g., that the Bible has been telling the truth all along) that they may find uncomfortable. Any you know what? - That this would happen was prophesied long ago in the very book that modern day skeptics love to hate. How ironic is that?

WHERE ARE THE SCIENTIFIC EVIDENCE FOR TALKING SNAKES?

I don't understand why you are asking for scientific evidence of talking snakes any more that you would want scientific evidence of the resurrection of Jesus, Jesus walking on water, calming the wind and waves in a storm or raising his friend Lazarus from the dead. If you are referring to the incident in the Garden of Eden, then it was Satan who was using the body of the snake to convey his message and it was a supernatural event, just like when Jesus the Creator of all things made the first woman from part of Adam's body. You can't explain these things scientifically because they are supernatural events under direct control of God, so you are wasting your time looking for evidence of these types of events.

Wrong. Read the Bible and see what it actually says.

Lots of love ...

What you need to understand is the Law of God and the Grace of God. Science is based on the laws of God. What a lot of people fail to understand is the Grace of God. This shows His love, mercy and forgiveness. ONLY because Jesus fulfilled the Law of God for us. We owed a debt that was greater then we could ever pay and Jesus paid that debt for us.

Science proves the Bible is true!

The Science of DNA proves that the Bible is accurate and true. Archaeology proves that the Bible is accurate and true.

That doesn't even follow. And it also shows you as nothing but an infantile person if that's your response to my comment.
