What is the Bible?• It is accurate• Approximately 2500 prophecies appear in the pages
of the Bible, about 2000 of which already have been fulfilled to the letter—no errors.
• If the probability for one prophecy to be fulfilled by chance averages is less than 1/10, the odds for all these prophecies having been fulfilled by chance without error is less than one in 102000
(1 with 2000 zeros written after it)
