5.  DEVIDE the enemy….There are so many religions today…….  Islam, Hindu, Judaism, Buddhist, Christian, Scientology, etc, etc  Figures might vary,… but this is a start: Which religion is the real truth ?

7.  Let’s then focus on the biggest religion…Christianity  Christianity is all about Jesus Christ, God’s plan to send his Son to earth as a sacrifice for man/woman’s sins(wrongdoings). Man cannot save himself by his own works.  Christianity’s book is called the “Bible”. If we then need to know if Christianity is really the truth,… then … …. we HAVE to look into this BOOK for some TRUTH…  If the book shows divine proof (without any doubt..), then we can believe the religion as the TRUTH….So here we go !

8. The Bible is a collection of books (Biblos) revealing God's Salvation plan for man. These books unwrap the mystery of the crucifixion to reveal the power of the Lord's wounds, offered to God the Father, as the remedy for all evils, a power that bonds our hearts to His Heart. This religion is called grace ! Bible Facts: BC = Before Christ’s birth. AD = After Christ’s death  The Bible contains 66 books, divided among the Old and New Testaments.  The Old Testament autographs were written 1450 - 400 B.C.  The New Testament autographs were written between 45-95 A.D.  What is the longest chapter in the Bible? Psalm 119  What is the shortest chapter in the Bible? Psalm 117  Which chapter is the middle of the Bible? Psalm 118 There are 594 chapters before Psalm 118 There are 594 chapters after Psalm 118 The entire New Testament was canonized (put together) before the year 375 A.D. and the Old Testament had previously been canonized long before the advent of Christ.

11.  Predicting one specific historical event in the future is possible by guessing.  Predicting many specific historical events in the future is very unlikely by guesswork.  Predicting a series of specific historical events in the future and in a specific order, is even more unlikely by guesswork. It is impossible… Bible Facts – Prediction vs. Design:  If you play a single digit lottery, your chances of predicting it correct is 1 out of 10.  If you play a double digit lottery, your chances of predicting it correct is 1 out of 100  If you play a four digit lottery, your chances of predicting it correct is 1 out of 10 000  To predict another 4 digits correctly, your chances of predicting it correct is 1 out of 100 000 000 (One Hundred Million)  To predict another 4 digits correctly, your chances of predicting it correct is 1 out of 1000 000 000 000. See where this is going ?

12.  So… what is the chances of a series of predictions about Jesus Christ, actually becoming true?,  What is the chances of these predictions made by different people, thousands of years prior to his birth, …. actually becoming true?  Did someone design it ! Someone as divine called God Almighty ?  According to Christianity, these events of the future, was revealed by God to various people called prophets, who recorded their predictions in scriptures. These predictions (prophecies) are all compiled in a book called the Holy Bible. Bible Facts – Prediction vs. Design: In other words, it would be almost impossible for the predictions to happen merely by coincidence. According to Christianity, it is more likely to have occurred by design. Lets see then if it’s true?

Anyone who has seen me has seen the Father! So why are you asking me to show him to you? John 14:10 Don’t you believe that I am in the Father and the Father is in me?

Sins separate us from God… Isa 59:2 But your iniquities have separated between you and your God, and your sins have hid his face from you, that he will not hear. 3.
