What if all the Bibles, and the people who had memorized them were lost in some world disastor, and we had to start a new population that had never heard of the Bible.
Would we still be able to know God, and go to Heaven? Would the Holy Spirit be enough? If so, why is it not enough now?

God wrote his word upon our hearts

The Holy Spirit resides within true believers, of which Jesus said there are few that find the straight and narrow gate. The world doesn't want the Holy Spirit. The world for the most part is ruled by the flesh which wars against the spirit. The word of God that he promised to preserve is our guide and standard for the final authority on the truth and we learn what we must do to live by the spirit from it. We must take up our cross daily and keep our flesh under subjection to the spirit. That's not a popular message today.

Since God is in control He would orchestrate the circumstances through the "elect" to refill major parts of the earth with His gospel. The Holy Spirit prevails through Him & Jesus. If the Holy Spirit was taken out of the world you would not have organized goverment, law & authorities delegating law. There would be no jails or prisons either. Morals & decency would be basically out of the picture as well. Anarchy & violence would be on a much higher scale. Total chaos would prevail.....If the Holy Spirit was not here there would be no christians on this earth.............He is enough for now until Christ returns............<>< <><

The Bible, The Word of God lives on and on. It'll never perish. It has remained with us because God will not allow man to destroy it. Just like God said in His Word that there will always be a remnant of believers in the world and there has! God will always be in control. Hallelluia.

The more likely occurence would be that the entirety of the Universe would pass away before all the words of Christ passed away, Jesus even addressed this issue...
Matthew 24:35 says-
Heaven and earth will pass away, but my words will never pass away.
Christ will protect his word. Ask the Roman government what happened when they tried to destroy Christianity and all of the Scriptures...

God writes His law on our hearts so we instinctively know right from wrong. Killing someone would be felt as wrong and helping someone would be felt as doing right. God will judge accordingly but we know God has made a way so that His word remains the same forever and can not be broken. The fowers fade, seasons come and go but the Word will remain forever

God's word is eternal so it can never be lost. He said heavens and earth shall pass away but my words shall never pass away. The God that gave the word is the same God that will preserve and maintain his word. No disaster that satan could bring would completely wipe it out.

The Bible has persisted in existence inspite of all manner of attempted destruction upon it. God would never let it happen . He is the author and the finisher.

Whole villages in communist countries have survived spiritually off just one torn out page of the word.
The new testament law is written on our hearts...We would flourish,in God's grace,no doubt.

GOD would raise new disciples and prophets, and the HOLY SPIRIT will always be enough!
