How do we know that God's word is true?

Answered in 15 sources

God's word is affirmed through its divine inspiration, historical accuracy, and the transformative power it holds in the lives of believers.

The truth of God's word is rooted in its divine inspiration, as 2 Timothy 3:16 states that all Scripture is breathed out by God. This means that the very words of the Bible carry authority because they stem from the God who is truth itself. Additionally, the historical accuracy of biblical events, as supported by archaeological finds and historical writings, further affirms its reliability. Most importantly, believers experience the living word of God in their lives—how it speaks to their hearts, leads to repentance, and brings about spiritual transformation, a testament to its truthfulness.
