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.

"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to be outdated."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
