Below is a knowledge humbly given to me by God on how to answer the argument, "The Bible is only created by humans." Please feel free to use it if you need it in a conversation or you can comment below. 😊
-Common arguments regarding the Bible: "The Bible is only created by humans."
-Answer: I don't agree that the Bible is created by humans in totality. It's true that the Lord used humans to write and replicate the Bible. But the words, wisdom and knowledge that the Bible contains come from God. He revealed it to humans (such as Apostles, Disciples, and Prophets) and the humans wrote it on a tablet/papyrus. But for the sake of argument, by saying that "the Bible is created by humans" is like saying that "I don't believe the Bible because it's only created by humans." My question is, "have you ever read a book even once in your life?" I believe that you have because when we were little, we were all taught how to read using a book, right? I believe you were also once a student who have read Science or Math or History books, right? Did you believe what you read from the Science books? Science books were created by humans too (or you might argue that Science books are based on evidence). Well the Bible is not just based on evidence--it is evidence itself. Actually, it would be more shameful for us humans if the Lord used animals to write the Bible. It would only mean that He finds no man on the face of the earth worthy or deserving of writing His words on a paper and such.
If you believed the Science books you read which were also only created by humans (as no book in this world was created by animals), then your argument "I don't believe the Bible because it's only created by humans" is faulty and weak. Because in the first place, you have read a book and believed in it--but just not the Bible. Because I believe the reason you don't believe the Bible is because the Bible speaks the truth. It tells us about God and Satan, good and evil, it reveals us that we have all sinned and fall short of the glory of God (Romans 3:23). It tells us that Heaven and Hell is real and it tells us that those who sin and don't repent of their sins will be thrown into the lake of fire, and it also tells us about Jesus Christ and how He saved us from our sins and that those who confess their sins can be forgiven by the Lord (1 John 1:9). I believe one of the reasons why people do not want to read the Bible is because of the Holy Spirit's conviction and because the Devil does not want people to know the truth that Jesus Christ has already saved us by dying on the cross on our behalf and that we can be forgiven. On the other hand, I believe that conviction, when reading the Bible, is good because it only proves that God's words are true, powerful, and alive. My suggestion is: start reading the Bible and the Lord's powerful words will work in your life and change you eventually--with the help of the Holy Spirit. God Bless you!
