In this series we’re discussing the reliability of the Bible, using the MAPS acronym from Hank Hanegraaff. Our final letter is S for Statistics.
A professor named Peter Stoner worked with 600 students to figure out what the probability would be of just eight prophecies of Jesus being fulfilled. The result is 1 in 10036
In Matthew 17:27, Jesus said to Peter, “Go to the lake and throw out your line. Take the first fish you catch; open its mouth and you will find a four-drachma coin. Take it and give it to them for my tax and yours.”
Eyewitnesses watched Peter do what Jesus asked. The odds of catching a fish with a specific coin is impossible. Statistics prove that the Bible is reliable because it is God’s Word.
