I am talking about things that have been proven . I see a lot of people say the Bible has been proven to be false but they never talk of the proof. Just because you dont believe it isn't "proof".

For starters, how about the hundreds of contradictions it has. On top of that, how about this:

How many human generations were there before Jesus? according to the bible there were 62. The bible got it wrong by two orders of magnitude. History and archaeology prove that there were more than a mere 62 generations before Christianity. The species Homo sapiens has existed for 100,000 - 200,000 years, which would be at least 5,000 generations.

Luke 3:34-38 lists 20 generations between Adam and Abraham: Abraham, Thara, Nachor, Saruch, Ragau, Phalec, Heber, Sala, Cainan, Arphaxad, Sem, Noe, Lamech, Mathusala, Enoch, Jared, Maleleel, Cainan, Enos, Seth, Adam. Then Matthew 1:17 gives 42 generations between Abraham and Jesus: "So all the generations from Abraham to David are fourteen generations; and from David until the carrying away into Babylon are fourteen generations; and from the carrying away into Babylon unto Christ are fourteen generations."

Sure. In Genesis 1:16 God creates the sun and moon on the 3rd day, but by definition a day is a revolution of the earth, which wouldn;t revolve without something to revolve around, yes?

Also, in Genesis 1:26 God refers to himself in the plural - let "Us" make man in "Our" image. Which makes sense given that this particular passage come from the tradition of the Elohim, the polytheistic Jewish pantheon ethat existed before the 600s BC when the Yahweh cult coopted King Josiah and had all El worshippers who wouldn;t convert put to death. It's a vestige of polytheism that no one bothered to remove. If we view the Bible as a newspaper, either it is wrong or the Yahweh thing is wrong.

(The solution is not to look at it like a newspaper.)

Everything from Noah's Ark to the Garden of Eden has been studied and there is enough evidence to still believe it is true. As for miraculous occurences you just need to go to a Holy Ghost filled Church service to see some miracles and know there must have been miracles back then too. All of the bible is true. Here is one article to help but I can't provide all the proof in this little space.

History Validates the Resurrection
Author: Bruce Malone
Christianity is a faith based on factual events which really happened in time and space. It is not a mystical faith based on good feelings. The miracles of Jesus were his calling card; i.e., the validation of his claim to be God. The resurrection was his proof of identification. Even more importantly, the death and resurrection of Jesus were God's method for sinful mankind to stand forgiven before him. God's nature demands payment for wrong, yet he is merciful beyond comprehension. How can these two contrasting sides of God be reconciled?

This article is one of many found within Mr. Malone's excellent book, Search for the Truth. Without the factual nature of the resurrection, Christianity is nothing but smoke and mirrors; just another spiritual attempt to explain reality based on man's opinions. In spite of the historical accuracy of the Bible, there have been many alternative explanations for the missing body of Christ. Liberal theologians have even speculated that Christ's body ended up in a ditch. Yet Jewish law would have never allowed this. The two most prevalent to explain away Christ's resurrection will be examined in this article.

The most popular excuse for rejecting Christianity is the idea that Christ did not really die on the cross. Although this has been suggested in recent years, no one who witnessed His death considered this a real possibility. The idea of a man reviving himself after he has been brutally beaten, nailed to a cross, pierced with a spear, and tightly wrapped with suffocating cloth is ridiculous. For such a person to push aside a huge stone and sneak past trained guards is ludicrous. Even more remarkable was the effect the appearance of Jesus had on his disciples. They were transformed from a group of sniveling cowards into men who traveled the world, preaching that Jesus was God and had risen from the dead. Because of their message, almost all died horrible deaths of torture. Merely changing their story would have spared them this persecution. They had absolutely nothing to gain and everything to lose if their story wasn't true. Would a half-dead Jesus, who had dragged Himself from his tomb to their doorstep, have inspired this response?

The second attack on reality has been around since before the moment of the resurrection-the idea that the disciples stole the body. The religious leaders who had Jesus murdered feared this possibility and took the logical precautions to prevent this from happening. Guards were placed at the sealed tomb day and night. How could a group of "rag-tag" Jewish fisherman have overpowered a group of highly trained and motivated guards? How could they have moved a huge stone and sneaked away with the body unseen and unheard? The very fact that guards were posted adds credibility to the fact of the resurrection. If any of the details reported in the Bible were false, they would have been successfully refuted by the Jewish leaders. Although they tried they were unsuccessful in their attempt to discredit the facts of the resurrection. Evidence for the truth of the resurrection was apparent to the thousands who were converted to Christianity soon after the event. The rapid spread of this persecuted faith is perhaps the greatest evidence of it's reality. The facts of the resurrection were checked by converts of that day and led to changed lives. They still do today.

Christianity has nothing to fear from those honestly searching for the truth. It is based on logical evidence surrounding real events in time and space.

every allegation regarding heaven and life after death are false.... that Jesus existed 2000 years ago also false... that he will return false... that the old testament is actual events is false... not because I dont beleive... but because no matter how hard they try they have not been able to produce evidence... and saying it's comming next year over and over again for centuries proves they are simply waiting for someone to be clever or gullible enough to invent another reason or facticious piece of evidence to keep the human race holding on the delusions for another time... We have to start being reasonable and work without religions if we ever want to really know the facts

Most of Genesis is fiction. Perhaps the most obvious falsehood is the tale of the flood, which can easily be shown to be false by anyone with a shovel and the ability to count: the annual layers of the Antarctic ice cap go back millions of years. (A flood would have destroyed them.) There are, of course, numerous other bits of evidence showing the same thing. We know from genetic evidence that the Adam and Eve tale is fiction, and from evolution also. The creation of the earth coincides with the Genesis account only by coincidence -- and not much of that. There is lots more.

The Bible says that bats are birds.

It says that there are four-footed fowl.

It says that rabbits chew cud.

In dozens of places, it reflects the ancient belief in the geocentric, flat-world, solid firmament concept. The God who made the world would have known better, and could have reflected the reality as a lesson to future skeptics-- UNLESS he wanted to play some sort of cute game and make faith as problematic as possible.

James 2
21 Was not our ancestor Abraham considered righteous for what he did when he offered his son Isaac on the altar?

No. He was counted as righteous because He trusted God.

The Bible is the word of God. I know because I have faith and I have felt the Holy Spirit.

The story of the Great Flood and Noah's Ark.
The flood wasn't worldwide. Plenty of people and animals survived on land that wasn't inundated.
