"Some people say the Bible is unreliable, and their views have gained wide acceptance. Thus many today dismiss what the Bible says as untrustworthy. On the other hand, what Jesus Christ said in prayer to God promotes trust: 'Your word is truth.' And the Bible itself claims to be inspired by God.—John 17:17; 2 Timothy 3:16. What do you think about this? Is there sound basis for trusting the Bible? Or is there really evidence that the Bible is unreliable, that it contradicts itself and is inconsistent?"

This handsome chap is reading his bible. I was urged to do the same today by two well-dressed ladies who knocked on the door this morning. Had I read the bible lately, they asked. Because its message of love and peace could change the world for the better. Well, fair enough. They didn't try to convert me and were very pleasant. Don't agree, etc, but they don't put the fear of God (!) up me like the Mormons, who sleek around like salesmen.
