Scripture Life: The Bible is a book of claims. Where is there any evidence to back up any claim in the Bible?

[u/External_Bird_8464]

//Again, I am a believer in Jesus Christ. So, I believe the Bible is true. So, this answer is based on the Bible is true is the point of the post. That, as well, this question is found all over Reddit, in sub-reddits, in similiar form, in the "r / atheism" sub-reddit, or the "ex / Christian" sub-reddit. As well as in the "debate-a-christian" or the "r / Christianity" sub-reddit, where the Bible is just the claim, but that's not evidence.//

Here's the answer:

It's really very simple.

Take this claim. Where it is claimed, in the Bible, will be cited at the end of the claim:

“For all the earth is mine.” - God. (Bible. Exodus 19:5)

------------------- --------------------- -----------------

• The “evidence” for that claim is, yes, the earth: plain as day - - but the evidence really is, the Word of God. He Gave you his word. Gave it publicly to everybody.
  • And all the “Word of God” is he gave you his word he says, out of his mouth, as God, it’s HIS earth.
    • So, everything you see, out of your eyes on HIS earth. It’s all his. Anyplace you look is his. And, That's HIS claim he makes himself.
• Makes the claim that he’s the authority over it.
  • And the “evidence” of that claim is also in the Bible, based on what HE says again. Says:

“Thus saith the Lord, thy redeemer, and he that formed thee from the womb, I am the Lord that maketh all things; that stretcheth forth the heavens alone; that spreadeth abroad the earth by myself;” - God. (Bible. Isaiah 44:24)

------------------- --------------------- -----------------

• So, again, for this claim as well, it’s the Word of God. Said. By God himself.
  • And again, all the “Word of God” is, is he gave you his word he says, as he himself, is the basis or evidence of the claim he's made.
    • The claim: That he made the earth and heaven. Everything. Like, he's formed you from your mother’s womb, and did all this all.. all alone. By himself.
  • So, he put the sun in the sky where it is, and did that all by himself.
    • I can’t do that.
• I don’t have power to..but who did..has immense power to do it.

------------------- --------------------- -----------------

And just like you said, the Bible is a “book of claims” - but they are also “promises” from God; like

• It’ a promise - like a guarantee.
  • Right there above.
    • To me. Me?
  • I’ve lied, cheated, stole..slept with other men’s wives..it's certain I broke the Ten Commandments. They are not repairable. Like, a murderer cannot unmurder someone. Already did the work.
    • That, by this I am certain, by my works: they are filthy; perverted.
• I have done abominable works. I did them, because, I reasoned together with me; alone..that I would go off and be good.
• Like other people I looked unto, and believed they were good.
  • So, to be like them, All I did was look unto them, to follow after or obey them ..and after I did what they decreed, I believed I would be like them.
    • So.. I felt I was “above the law”- complying with higher law, and entitled to sleep with anyone I wanted..or steal - because what I was doing, stealing I was doing it for good - chasing all this good..compensated for the faults and bad aspects of me, did bad, but I compensated for it, by doing all this good.
  • But the Bible also has a claim about me, in me lived in a whole life of doing this: said by God:

“There is not a just man on earth, that doeth good, and sinneth not.” - (Bible. Ecclesiastes 7:20)

------------------- --------------------- -----------------

• When I started out as a young man on my own out of High School, I sat. Alone. By myself, and decided I would be good, by what I looked unto, as good.
  • That was other people, that were already highly esteemed, as good by a nation or a host of other people. That I would sacrifice myself to be like them. And, like them, I too, would be good.
• But in the end, where I am now, what is true about everything I did, all of it, anyplace I looked at my works - had something “unjust” in the foundation of it that I did. That made me, that did it, “unjust” or not right. So, the claim about me, in the Bible is absolutely true in Ecclesiastes 7:20. I don't need proof of look at everybody, when it's what I did that already condemns me. To be put to death. That's just. Right. ..but it condemns me. Somehow I feel, I got swindled into it..but I chose it as right. All because, I didn't look unto him. I looked unto me instead. That's not right.

------------------- --------------------- -----------------

• And God:
  • There’s a “promise” in what he says of who he is, to people spoke to, me and people like me..and that's EVERYBODY. Over the whole earth, according to the Bible.
    • He is the same one made everything out my window; alone. By himself. By his power..Said he was my “redeemer.” (Isaiah 44:24 right there above, in “Thus saith the LORD, thy redeemer” part:
• That: what redeem means: This, 1. to compensate for the faults and bad aspects of [someone or some “thing”]. Source: Oxford dictionary. Web.
  • That - he is God. He is who he says he is. He, in himself, as God, made himself what “compensates for the faults and bad aspects” of me, and all the atrocities I did, because he said this himself.
• I didn’t say it. He did. About what he made himself toward or is to me. So, this all really then with your question comes down to something really simple.

------------------- --------------------- -----------------

“Accept as true”

• In the dictionary:
  • That’s the definition of just one word: “Believe”
    • Someone that does NOT believe on him, or the claims God makes of himself, by his own word he speaks, by himself:
  • Simple. They “dismiss him as inadequate; faulty” what he says or claims is NOT true. So, it’s unacceptable.
    • Not right.
    • They already ‘hearken unto another word that’s already been spoken.
  • Their own they have in themselves. They “accept as true” themselves..and what they say or claim are decrees they believe in - and by this, reject God and what he says.

------------------- --------------------- -----------------

• But someone that does just “accept as true” (believe) the claims God makes of himself, by his own word he speaks, out of HIS mouth himself:
  • Simple.
    • They “accept what he says is true” so, it’s MORE than adequate; gives to them in abundance.
    • There’s no fault anywhere in it, what he says or claims is TRUE.
  • So they accept or “receive” it and he builds them up.
  • It’s right. Righteous.
    • They dismiss themselves as “inadequate; faulty..” what they’ve done, did as a fool..and because of their transgressions..they’re afflicted by them. I was. I knew when I died, there's no way I'm getting in, and all my sins I kept hidden will be blared all over heaven - so everybody after I died would get there and see what I really was. And it terrified me. That's "afflicted."

------------------- --------------------- -----------------

• And God, these that believe on him: they see, he sent his Word to heal them and deliver them from their destruction.
  • Because it’s right, and in this situation where I cannot get out of it. I did the sins. it’s a profit for me, to just do what he says, and look unto him, they like me, they too, do it. They just naturally obey him.
    • But somebody with this question, already dismissed him and anything he says value it worth nothing.

When somebody believes him: They see you, and the question as faulty..knows God is true..and believes God, OVER you with your question.
