Publisher's summary

We live in a culture that more and more questions authority, truth claims, and traditional beliefs. So what are we to believe about the authority and trustworthiness of a book that is thousands of years old? Is God's word truly inerrant? How is it different from other religious texts? Why should we trust its claims?

In Why Believe the Bible?, esteemed Bible teacher John MacArthur asks - and definitively answers - these questions and many more, including:

  • Is the Bible the word of God?
  • Can we prove the Bible is true?
  • How did the Bible come to be?
  • What does it mean that the scriptures are "inspired"?
  • What did Jesus believe about God's word?
  • Who decided which books were part of the Bible?

Skeptics, new Christians, and longtime believers will find in this accessible audiobook clear answers to vexing questions about the book that has arguably had more impact on the world than all other books combined.

Includes a Bible reading plan with study tips and an appendix with helpful tools for Bible study.

Critical listening/reading

While not inerrant, his works are exceedingly applicable to an understanding of the faith for all (and especially useful to hone the beliefs of Christians today).

Worth Your Time.

What I liked about this book was how it begin with why you should believe the Bible. Then he goes on on how to read, study, and develop sound habits to understand it. He says several times his position on what the Bible is and isn't. It has a lot of information to digest. He doesn't make the book too academic. With an audio book you don't have the bibliography so that is hinderence for deeper study.
I also enjoyed the narrator. He has a great voice and style.

Not what I was looking for, but still great to see

I was hoping this book was focused on apologetics. What it does do is provide support for the inerrancy of God’s word as well as how faithful study of his word can impact (or rather should direct) a person’s life.
