I had a little guy in my office today. He was struggling with believing that there really was a Jesus and a heaven and whether he really could trust the Bible. We talked for a while about why we should trust something. For me it really comes down to one answer. If the Bible is trustworthy in the things I can check, then I trust it to be trustworthy for the things I can't check.
This picture is of one of the caves of Qumran where the dead sea scrolls were found. Before their discovery, so-called scholars believed that the Old Testament had been gradually revised and edited to come up with the text that we have today. However, the scrolls found in these caves which had been hidden away for 1900 years, show that the text we have is virtually identical to the text Jesus had all those years ago.
