first up is Robert he's listing in LA hi
Robert yes hi Hank thank you for taking
my call
pleasure I just a question for you now
Christianity is over 2,000 years old and
since the products and Reformation
Protestants have shattered into many
different functions and why should a
person to choose the Bible over any
other secret books considering the
history yeah a very good question and
also a good articulation and the
prologue to the question about what's
happened to Christianity Christianity
was essentially United for the first
thousand years there was a great schism
in 1054 and and then the within the the
the Western Church there was a schism
between the Roman Catholics and the
Protestants and since that there's been
much much fracturing but Christians have
always been united Robert around what we
call the essentials of the historic
Christian faith we say an essentials
unity non essentials Liberty and in all
things charity and and therefore a
Protestant can stand with an Orthodox
Christian for example when it comes to
the essentials of the historic Christian
faith they don't have to divide they can
debate the secondary issues as far as
religious books are concerned the reason
that we hold the Bible to be an
infallible Authority is because it
demonstrates itself to be just that it
is replete with prophecy that can't be
attributed to good luck guessing or
common sense and its ethics are
unquestionable and it's rooted in
history and evidence if you look at
other religious books you find precisely
the opposite the Quran
is a a classic case in point it's in my
head because they've been writing about
it
but the Quran is replete with faulty
ethics with factual errors and and also
with feigned eloquence which is to say
that if you actually read it as opposed
to just hearing about it it is a
confused jumble it's hard to make sense
of it apart apart from the AH Hadees so
I you know I I think the answer to your
question in in some is simply that one
is rooted in history and evidence the
other not
you
