A Handbook of Christian Evidence

Without a doubt, faith is at the heart of Christianity. "Without faith it is impossible to please God." (Hebrews 11:6) This book is intended to provide a basis in fact for belief in the Bible as the inspired word of God. It will be helpful, both for those who are coming to faith in God for the first time, and for those who already believe, but who want their faith deepened.
In this book, most of the major questions asked by those who question belief in the Bible are addressed. Why should I follow Jesus and not another of the world's major religious leaders? Where do miracles fit in, and can we really believe in miracles? How do I know whether the events recorded in the Bible are true? And what about the Bible itself? Who wrote it, and from where did they get their authority? Is their message truly consistent? What about the scientific accuracy of the Bible? Reasons For Belief addresses these and other questions in a way that is easy to understand.

Recommendations:

"John Oakes has done us a great service with his new book, Reasons for Belief. Reading it here in South Africa, I have thoroughly enjoyed it. Every page is packed with detail and information. John has a knack for taking complicated issues, and crystalizing the truth from all the confusion. This book will help all of those who believe in Jesus, but have a whispering voice in the background somewhere telling them that science has proven their faith to be outdated." –Mike Taliaferro, evangelist, South Africa
