Item Description...

In this clearly written book, Dr. Boice argues for the historical and scientific truthfulness of Scripture by selecting a few of the best-known and most representative attacks and demonstrating that the alleged difficulty presents no insoluble problem when it is dealt with by an appropriate and reasonable methodology.

Reviews - What do our customers think?
Piques the mind but lacks depth  Apr 19, 2004
Boice is well-known for his in-depth yet easy to understand commentaries (skillfully breaking down the book of Romans to enable regular people to understand Paul's sometimes thick thoughts), and is a respectable writer. Gleason Archer is also well known for his work in a paper entitled "Alleged Errors and Discrepancies in the Original Manuscripts of the Bible", and wrote the foreward to the book.

The problem is, the book is hardly a book, and is more of a thick pamplet. With a 10 page foreward and a 35 page body, there's no way the book can cover any topic concretely; even moreso when the book's divided into Bible Problem topics of:

1) Atonement
2) Moral problems
3) Scienitific
4) Historical
5) Inconsistencies

Which are all broad enough to warrant a huge book; 5-6 pages for each problem cannot satisfactorially address the problems. Although it's well-written, easy to understand, and has nice examples, the scope is too big and the content too brief to offer any insight on the issues.

Those who want to examine apparent discrepancies with the bible should check out the book Inerrancy. Spend an extra 10 dollars or so and you get a thorough 500+ page book.

 
Less than helpfull  Feb 7, 2002
If you ask a child why they have blonde hair, they might respond with a simple 'because'. To the child this may be a perfectly reasonable response.

Such are the attempts of the good Dr. Boice in this book. The questions that are raised are answered with a childish depth and tend to raise more questions than they answer.

This is by no means a comprehensive work. The questions that Dr. Boice claims are the most common questions about the bible I have never heard of before.

In all, I believe that a total of seven questions are covered in this book. One of which is dismissed as being covered in a paper by another author (who has written the forward to this book), and being to lengthy to bother with in this book.

Very disappointing.
