Leviticus  15:13  said  to  wash  the  skin  in  "running  water,"  while  doctors
                didn't know about germs and were washing their hands in stagnant bowls of
                water until the late 1800s.


                Leviticus 17:11 said "...the life of the flesh is in the blood..." but up until
                the  1800s,  doctors  thought  you  could  help  sick  people  by  draining  their
                blood.

                In Job 38:16, God asked Job, "Hast thou entered into the springs of the
                sea? or hast thou walked in the search of the depth?"  About 3,500 years
                later, high-tech deep-sea cameras enabled us to discover hot-water vents in
                the dark ocean floor.


                Why was the Bible so far ahead of scientists?  Because "All scripture is
                given by inspiration of God" (2 Timothy 3:16).

                Revelation 11:9-10 prophesies of people all over the world seeing the same
                two dead bodies within only three and a half days.  The Bible knew about
                television and news cameras long before they were invented!


                Atheists love to mock Bible-believers by equating us with the people who
                thought that the  earth  is  flat.    But  the  Bible  said  the  earth  is  round  long
                before scientists figured it out.

                Isaiah 40:22 "It  is he  that  sitteth  upon the  circle of  the  earth, and  the
                inhabitants thereof are as grasshoppers; that stretcheth out the heavens
                as a curtain, and spreadeth them out as a tent to dwell in:"   (A sphere is

                a three-dimensional circle.)

                Luke 17:30-34 shows that it can be day on one side of the earth and night on
                the other side at the same time, which would be impossible if the earth was
                flat.

                                             "GOTCHA!" ARGUMENTS


                Atheists have a few pet arguments with which they try to catch you off guard
                and  embarrass  you  for  taking  the  Bible  seriously  and  for  not  knowing  its
