All new discoveries in areas of science are nothing but detections of God’s laws. The forensic evidence that connects the trustworthiness of the Bible is without a doubt a uncovering God’s voice-print text for humanity.
Forensics science of extant Biblical writings of antiquity in comparison of other scholarly recognized writings such as Iliad, Caesar’s Gallic Wars and others are meager to MANUSCRIPT EVIDENCE OF THE NEW TESTAMENT.
There are now more than 5,300 known Greek manuscripts of the New Testament. Add over 10,000 Latin Vulgate and at least 9,300 other early versions (MSS) and we have more than 24,000 manuscript copies of portions of the New Testament in existence today. No other document of antiquity even begins to approach such numbers and corroboration. In comparison, the Iliad by Homer is second with only 643 manuscripts that still survive. The first complete preserved text of Homer dates from the 13th century. If we were to lay side-by-side the forensic manuscripts between to the famed Iliad and the copies of the Holy Bible there is a 99.97% greater evidence of the veracity of the Bible! It is interesting to point out that academia recognizes Iliad is a classic and not the compilation of evidence that supports the reliability of the Bible. Why? Academic dishonesty. Maybe, they ignore the body of verifiable proof of the Bible so not to be ridicule by their peers.
The Bible and Iliad were required reading in school by educators until the enlighten era that began with Jacques Rousseau in France in 1700’s. What was meant by enlighten? Institutions are the cause of evil. Burn down the institutions and rebuild to usher in equality for all. During this period clergy and church charity organizations were raze to the ground in this frenzy of selfishness. It is worth pointing out that the first recorded burning of books was direct by this insidious mob. The first book that was burned was the Bible. From that history to now the Bible has been teased and mocked by academia and celebrities. It will not be ignored in my household, but held up with the greatest of esteem as I search these words from God to be a light to guide me. How can you lead others in darkness without a light? Let your light shine before men. Read the Bible and become one with HIM!
