Evidence for the Bible (Seven Reasons You Can Trust the Bible):
This is Charlie’s most-requested teaching. In this presentation, he lays out seven lines of evidence for the trustworthiness of the Bible:
• Fulfilled prophecies
• Archaeological discoveries
• The Bible’s internal consistency
• Non-Biblical historical sources (Flavius Josephus, ancient Babylonian records, etc.)
• The Bible’s scientific accuracy and foresight
• The Bible’s forthrightness about failures
• The manuscript evidence
Evidence for God:
In this presentation, Charlie Campbell builds a compelling case that the God of the Bible exists. His presentation lays out evidence for God as seen in:
• The Cosmos
• The Conditions for Life
• The Complexity of Life
• The Canon of Scripture
• The Christ
Archaeological Evidence for the Bible:
In this presentation, Charlie Campbell takes people on a visual journey through the ancient land of the Bible to learn about several fascinating, faith-strengthening discoveries that have verified details in the Old and New Testaments.
The Case for Jesus: Answers to Skeptics’ Top Seven Objections:
In this presentation, Charlie Campbell responds to seven of the popular objections that atheists bring up about Jesus:
• “The authors of the Gospels borrowed their ideas for Jesus’ life story from other ancient religions (Horus, Mithraism, etc.).”
• “The earliest Christians didn’t believe Jesus was God.”
• “The Gospels have errors and contradictions in them.”
• “The Gospel of Thomas and the Gospel of Judas may have told us the truth about Jesus.”
• “There’s no good evidence outside the Bible that Jesus was a real person.”
• “The Gospels were written 300 years after Jesus lived.”
• “Accounts of Jesus’ miracles were added to the gospels to attract more followers.”
The Bible’s Scientific Accuracy and Foresight:
In this presentation, Charlie looks at several passages in the Bible where the Biblical writers revealed amazing facts about:
• The Start of the Universe
• The Stretching out of the Universe
• The Stars
• The Sun
• The Shape of the Earth
• The Suspension of the Earth
• The Second Law of Thermodynamics
• The Source of Water
• Springs in the Ocean
• Sea Paths
. . . long before their discovery by scientists—often by three or four thousand years. This is evidence that God superintended the writing of the Bible and that “All scripture is given by inspiration of God” (2 Tim. 3:16).
Concise Answers to Atheists’ Objections & Questions, Pt. 1:
In this presentation, Charlie opens up with a brief look at Jude 1:3 (“contend earnestly for the faith”) and then offers concise 2–5 minute answers to a variety of objections that atheists bring up about God and the Bible:
• “The Bible condones slavery!”
• “The God of the Old Testament commanded genocide, the wiping out of the Canaanite people in the Book of Joshua.”
• “Surely God doesn’t exist. If He did, He’d appear to us in a public setting and prove it to the world.”
• “The universe is so vast! It’s foolish to think a god built a universe billions of light years across just to have a personal relationship with you.”
• “The Bible was written by men! It’s not trustworthy.”
• “After the Roman Emperor Constantine became a Christian in AD 312, the Roman Empire took control of the Bible and tampered with its contents to better control the people.”
• “The New Testament authors stole the whole idea for Jesus’s virgin birth and resurrection from ancient religions that were around prior to Christianity.”
• “Keep the Bible out of people’s bedrooms. What two consenting adults do is their business. They have the right to do whatever they’d like to do.”
• “Why do Christians persist in judging, when Jesus said not to judge?”
• “The Bible is oppressive and harmful to women!”
• “Religions, Christianity included, are responsible for most of the world’s wars, suffering, and atrocities!”
• “Evolution is a proven fact.”
