Bible Answer: In the Bible, we have everything that we need. Notice that I used the word 'need'. It doesn't tell us or expand upon all of those little questions that we have that are secondary to the knowledge of salvation in our Lord Jesus Christ. However, we are without excuse in wake of God's creation (Romans 1:20) and many things we should just accept with faith (Hebrews 11:8-10). Unfortunately, the best way for our present world to 'affirm' itself in its findings is to base its conclusions (of history) on archeological findings and (of the present) the scientific method. Many things cannot be proven by either, so mathematics is generally used. These are crude examples of proving what we know to be true (the world is round, water is made of two Hydrogens and one Oxygen) compared to the Truth that we will find oneday when we enter the glorious presence of heaven. |
