I am not afraid to tell you that I am quite certain The Holy Bible is indeed the true word of God, I challenge you to check it for yourself.
Don’t take anyone’s word for it, not your pastor, not your brother. Go to the Bible yourself and do your own study to see if it stands to close scrutiny, You will be glad you did. (I would personally suggest you start in the New Testament.)

There are many among us who Teach the masses false doctrines and faiths, Yes there are still some who speak the truth, but if you never pick your Bible up you will not be able to discern one from the other.
If you don’t want to or can’t read it yourself then listen to it on disc or online. (Links to Audio Bibles In our Faith Section.)
I advise the ESV version because it is somewhat easier to read than KJV but is still accurate, though if you prefer, KJV and NKJV are fine as well.
Most other versions are “Thought for thought” meaning they were not translated Word for word. This makes a big difference if you know where to look, so I cannot advise anyone’s use of them.
If you are interested In how dinosaurs, fossils and various other things fit into the bible you might consider watching Ken Ham’s video series. (Linked to from our video section.) There are others that cover these topics as well if you prefer. And your welcome to disagree, but I ask you to think about it and have good reasons to be in disagreement. We all need to know why it is that we believe what it is that we believe.

I wish you the best of luck, questions are certainly welcome.

Nation will rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom. There will be great earthquakes, and in various places famines and pestilences. And there will be terrors and great signs from heaven.
But before all this they will lay their hands on you and persecute you, delivering you up to the synagogues and prisons, and you will be brought before kings and governors for my name’s sake. This will be your opportunity to bear witness. Settle it therefore in your minds not to meditate beforehand how to answer, for I will give you a mouth and wisdom, which none of your adversaries will be able to withstand or contradict. You will be delivered up even by parents and brothersand relatives and friends, and some of you they will put to death. You will be hated by all for my name’s sake. But not a hair of your head will perish. By your endurance you will gain your lives.
See that no one leads you astray. For many will come in my name, saying, ‘I am the Christ,’ and they will lead many astray. And you will hear of wars and rumors of wars. See that you are not alarmed, for this must take place, but the end is not yet. For nation will rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom, and there will be famines and earthquakes in various places. All these are but the beginning of the birth pains.
Then they will deliver you up to tribulation and put you to death, and you will be hated by all nations for my name’s sake. And then many will fall awayand betray one another and hate one another. And many false prophets will arise and lead many astray. And because lawlessness will be increased, the love of many will grow cold. But the one who endures to the end will be saved. And this gospel of the kingdom will be proclaimed throughout the whole world as a testimony to all nations, and then the end will come.

But concerning that day and hour no one knows, not even the angels of heaven, nor the Son, but the Father only. For as were the days of Noah, so will be the coming of the Son of Man. For as in those days before the flood they were eating and drinking, marrying and giving in marriage, until the day when Noah entered the ark, and they were unaware until the flood came and swept them all away, so will be the coming of the Son of Man. Then two men will be in the field; one will be taken and one left. Two women will be grinding at the mill; one will be taken and one left. Therefore, stay awake, for you do not know on what day your Lord is coming. But know this, that if the master of the house had known in what part of the night the thief was coming, he would have stayed awake and would not have let his house be broken into. Therefore you also must be ready, for the Son of Man is coming at an hour you do not expect.
