With archaeological discoveries and astounding fulfilment of prophecies, the Bible is not only a trustworthy historical account but the book that reveals the God you were created to know.
A loving relationship with God is broken when Adam and Eve sin; God, however, promises to send a deliverer who will pay the ultimate price to restore the broken relationship between God and mankind.
In a judgement of floodwaters, God provides one way of escape for all who believe; years later, in a divine test with Abraham, a striking picture is painted of a future substitute who will give His life for the world.
As God delivers His people from slavery, He demonstrates that He alone is God; during the tenth plague, the only way to escape death points to a future deliverance of a world in bondage to sin and death.
When God gives his holy laws at Mount Sinai, the moral standard they reveal works like a mirror to show the sin within every human heart and drive people to realise that their only hope is in the coming deliverer.
The day of atonement, sacrifices, and a rebellious nation perishing from venomous snake bites, all serve to reveal how the coming deliverer would be the innocent one dying in order that others might live.
