The Divine Origin of the Bible
The Seventh Proof of the Bible’s Divine Origin and Authority is the influence of the book.
As every observant person knows, the Bible has more power to save, gladden, beautify, and ennoble human lives, and to lift people up to God, than any other book. A stream can rise no higher than its source, and a book that possesses the power to elevate humanity to God must have come from God in a unique way. I recall a man of brilliant gifts who had become stupefied, brutalized, and demonized by drink, and he was a freethinker. He was persuaded to receive the Bible as the Word of God, and by the power of this book, he was set free and transformed into a humble, gentle, pure, unselfish lover of God and humanity.
Could any other book, or all other books combined, do that? What other book has the power to elevate not only individuals but also communities and nations as the Bible does? Why this unique divine power? Because it is of divine origin in a unique sense.
