Seven themes in the Bible can be used to show how the Bible is the inspired word of God. The Bible is a library of 66 books, written by 40 different men, over a period of 4,000 years, in different countries and cultures. The miracle is that it reads as one continual progression of a story that begins with stated purposes that lead to a fulfillment of those purposes in the end. The Bible's existance can only be explained by being inspired by a God who knows the end from the beginning. That is the God of the Bible.
