The Word Of God is authentically authored by God for many reasons but the most important one to me is that everytime
I open the word of God it speaks life to me, it specifically addresses
the problem or question that I am seeking the Lord about. This would be
argument number four of Dr. Elmer Towns "Ten Arguments For The Word Of God"
However
that is just one of my personal favorites. I also like Argument number
one which is "The Unique Revelation Of Jesus Christ" because this
personally may mean something more to me than it does for the next
person.
But
I know for sure that it was Christ revealing Him self to me as "being
alive today" in the day when HE was wooing me unto HIM it was the entire
reason that HE was able to reel my heart in. HIS sweet words in the
new testament drew me closer about 6 months after I had experienced the "Born Again" event. But it was HIS undeniable reality of HIS presence in my life that made me fall head over heels in love with HIM.
That
is why Dr. Towns is right to ask "If man invented Christ then why
didn't man create another?" Or in other words why didn't man "clone"
Jesus? That is because just like all of God's creation are unique and
irreplaceable. Most especially HIS only begotten SON the only savior of
the world, the only one perfect enough to take away the sins of the
world, the only one with spotless and sinless blood could redeem mankind
for father God.
My second choice for one of Dr. Town's arguments that I will choose is argument number eight: "The Honesty Of The Bible"
This is so comforting to me because though I've lived faithfully and
dedicated to the Lord uncompromisingly since 2000 without returning to
my former long lifestyle of sin coming from a very paganistic and heathenistic
back ground and I didn't come to Jesus until age 28 yet it was five
years later before HE purged the world's way of doing things it has not
stopped the world from wanting to stone me or throw up my past in my
face day in and day out with their Christian persecution.
It is another
anchor to my soul knowing that Moses was a murderer, Noah was a drunk,
Abraham lied about his wife, Eli didn't discipline his unruly sons, King
David (this is my favorite one because he had a heart after God's own
heart and I know God was mightily with him) committed adultery.
