Bible Question:
And? Lack of a way to verify this occurence 3200 years later means that no miracle took place? --Joe! |
Bible Answer: No, I believe that this miracle took place even though we have no evidence today. Archaeology or history has been one of the Bible's biggest supporters, but I am unaware of any find that would support the events in Joshua 10:12. However, I believe that the Bible and everything contained in the Bible actually did occur, and this is the only thing I need to believe that the events in Joshua 10:12 did occur. There are many other things in the Bible that cannot be proved by science or any other method and cannot be explained. But I still believe everything in the Bible because of the fact that it is in the Bible. And the Bible continues to guide me in my daily relationship with my Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ, who is my only hope. |
