How Do I Know the Bible is God's Word

Now…let me ask you a question…do you understand the times in which we live? This is what I mean…there seems to be a lot of people that think that the Bible is a good book, a moral book and even an important book, but they do not think it is God’s word…they do not think that it is authoritative…that it gives direction for their lives. Now, there are lots of reasons for that type of thinking…some people think all religions are the same, some people think that religion was made so to keep people oppressed…however, my own personal opinion is this…the reason many people do not believe the Bible is God’s word is this….it is because there are too many people in the church that live their lives like it is not God’s word!
