survive as Christians only if they cling to the simple truths: Jesus lives! God is Love! Jesus is coming back to earth again. God is just! Believe on Jesus and He will save you! They crave to know the secrets of how to live without sin, and how to obey God during times of persecution.
How can they know these things if someone does not tell them? And whoever it is that tells them is reaching to them from the very heart of God that is expressed to us as THE BIBLE.


Christianity has survived because the Bible has been preserved, sometimes miraculously, through times of great trial and persecution. God watches over his word to preserve it and to perform it.
In Acts 10:36 the apostle Paul correctly states, "The word which God sent unto the children of Israel, preaching peace by Jesus Christ: (he is Lord of all:)...
vs 42. And he commanded us to preach unto the people, and to testify that it is he which was ordained of God to be the Judge of quick and dead." Preaching is simply telling. The Bible tells the Good News that God exists and imparts salvation, forgiveness, healing, prosperity and everything else needed to all who surrender to Him, believe and obey.
The Bible exists because God ordained its existence, and it cannot be destroyed. It will be the light that guides, the food that sustains, the love letter that comforts God's people until Jesus comes back to the earth again, and no amount of debate or wrangling over it will change that fact.
