Answering Humanist's Accusations Against the Bible
This page provides a scripture index to the answers to humanist accusations against the Bible.
Job's response to God when God asked him, "Where were you when I created everything?" was: "Behold, I am insignificant; what can I reply to You? I lay my hand on my mouth." - Job 40:4
Humanists state on their web site: "The Bible is an unreliable authority because it contains numerous contradictions. Logically, if two statements are contradictory, at least one of them is false. The biblical contradictions therefore prove that the book has many false statements and is not infallible."
Is this true? Absolutely not. On these web pages we go through each accusation, contradiction, claim, and question raised on the humanist web page, in the order they are raised. Click here for the subject index. Every one is answered.
The reason why humanists reject God and the Bible is not because there are contradictions in the Bible or unanswered questions... it is because they do not want to be accountable to the God who created them. This is plain in scripture: "This is the judgment, that the Light has come into the world, and men loved the darkness rather than the Light, for their deeds were evil." - John 3:19
Job describes them in Job 21:13-15 "They spend their days in prosperity, and suddenly they go down to Sheol (hell). They say to God, ‘Depart from us! We do not even desire the knowledge of Your ways. Who is the Almighty, that we should serve Him, and what would we gain if we entreat Him?'" Job is the oldest book in the Bible. Rejection of God is nothing new. People reject God... even reject all knowledge of God. Yet God is patient and loving. He continues to give everyone second chance after second chance to turn from their own desires... to give up the empty excuses and accept the free gift He offers.

Everything is falling apart, nothing makes sense anymore. What's happening?
What is happening is that the world has turned away from God. When nations turn away from God, strangely enough, God turns His back on them. We find out what it is like to live without God.
There is only one thing to do... repent, turn to Jesus Christ in obedience. Jesus said:
If you love Me, you will keep My commandments. - John 14:15
This can only be done on an individual basis. Don't look to others turning to God and making things better for you. YOU must repent, turn away from disobedience. Love God! Obey what He says. Read the Bible to find out what He says.
It happens one person at a time, starting with you. Don't put it off today. Turn to Jesus Christ, God who came to earth in human flesh to save us from the penalty we've earned as a result of our disobedience (sin). He will do it! ...
BUT ONLY when you believe this is true and put your trust in Jesus. Trust Jesus today. Repent (turn away from what the world wants and to what God wants).
Jesus began to preach, “Repent, for the kingdom of heaven has come near.” - Matthew 4:17
