The Real Reason People Don't Trust the Bible

About this sermon

Most people who argue against the Bible have never actually read the book they are arguing against. But the issue goes deeper than evidence, archaeology, or ancient manuscripts. The real reason people reject the Bible is not intellectual. It is moral. In this episode of Get into the Word, Robby Gallaty addresses the honest reason why skeptics (and many inside the church) avoid Scripture. If the Bible is true, it represents an absolute authority that makes real demands on how we live. Discover why God chose to put His truth in a written, testable record, how the Bible stands apart from every other religious text in human history, and why the ultimate question isn't "Why should I trust the Bible?" but rather "Why wouldn't you?"
