Book Description:
The intention of the author is to provide a bold new look at interpreting what is written in the Bible so that an understanding of the Truth can be achieved in spite of the anomalies that are prevalent throughout. As a child the author's teaching proclaimed that the Bible was inerrant, some even said that it had been handed down by God and thus was perfect. With growth and development of an engineer's mind, a mind that searches and analyzes in seeking logical explanations, the anomalies could no longer be ignored because they obfuscated the Truth. Ergo, it became necessary to provide examples, and suggestions for consideration, of various places in the Bible where discrepancies exist. Greater emphasis is given to the life of Jesus although some examples from the Old Testament are given. The Epistles of the apostles have not been included in this review.
