In this series we’re discussing the reliability of the Bible. Years ago, I heard Hank Hanegraaff of Christian Research Institute share the acronym MAPS to help explain the reliability of the Bible.
The M stands for manuscripts.
Years ago, I visited the site of the Dead Sea Scrolls. The process that the scribes used to copy God’s Word was impressive. If they made any mistake, they immediately burned the scroll.
Historians gauge the veracity of a manuscript according to the volume of manuscripts and the time span between the originals and earliest manuscripts. The Bible has stronger support than any other classical writing of Homer, Tacitus or Aristotle.
Psalm 19:9 says, “The rules of the Lord are true, and righteous altogether.”
Historical manuscript evidence overwhelmingly proves the reliability of God’s Word.
