Should my faith be placed in mankind because of the incredible success in education, medicine, science, and technology? on Nov 26, 2024 From the writings of the Rev. Billy Graham Q: My college professor claims that science has disproved much of the Bible – and the Gospel – and if I expect to have any faith at all, my faith should be placed in mankind because of the incredible success in education, medicine, science, and technology. My faith in God is certain, but how does one debate this? – F.U. The video player is currently playing an ad. You can skip the ad in 3 sec with a mouse or keyboard A: When we are confronted with someone who claims that the Bible has been proven a fraud, we should always ask where such is the case. True science and true understanding of the Bible are never at variance. If the person making such a claim is antagonistic to the Christian faith and God’s Word, he or she is prone to back the position by supposed inaccuracies in the Bible. But the best answer to such people is to insist on the statement, on their part, of just what the inaccuracies are. Most of the time, they are not forthcoming and don’t really expect anyone to doubt them because of their credentials. If we are uncertain of what the Bible teaches on the subject, we should also do our part in seeking others’ wisdom and answers from the Word of God. When people doubt that the Bible is the true Word of God, they are often unwilling to ascribe to God anything they cannot themselves achieve. Above all, let’s remember that Satan exalted himself above God and endeavored to get man to doubt the reliability of God’s Word. The gospel of Jesus Christ is not anti-intellectual. It demands the use of the mind along with faith in the authoritative Word of God and what Jesus did on the cross, making salvation possible. The Bible is God’s message to us. It is the infallible Book.
