Science vs. the Bible: The truth is that scientific facts prove the truth of the Bible

Believing that the Bible is the Word of God does not require blind faith, it does however require an open mind. For the believer, faith is not blind. Hebrews 11:1 says, “Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen.” Faith is the proof it is a gift from God. You don't have to prove the Bible true to believers because God's spirit has confirmed His Word by this gift of faith. They don't believe it to be true. They know it is true. However, to one without faith, to the unbeliever, the main evidence of God and His love for us is the Bible. For the unbeliever, the proof that the Bible is God's word to man is the accuracy of the Bible even in the science it presents.

    While it is true that the Bible is not a science book but all the scientific facts it gives are true. These truths where placed in the Bible before scientists discovered them to be true. I suspect God placed them in His word to provide evidence that God inspired this book not man. Consider, a few of the true science facts revealed in the Bible before they were known by scientists.

• Dinosaurs are referred to in several Bible books. The book of Job describes in chapter forty-one and forty-two describes two different dinosaurs. They were not called dinosaurs since the word did not exist in the language of that day. . I think you will agree that one and a half chapters about dinosaurs is a lot—since most people do not even realize that they are mentioned in the Bible. But, if the Bible describes dinosaurs as living a walking on the Earth a few thousand years ago then evolution is wrong. Some of you are now ready to stop reading. Open you mind and continue reading.
• The Bible tells the number of stars in the heavens. Genesis 22:17 Blessing I will bless you, and multiplying I will multiply your descendants as the stars of the heaven and as the sand which is on the seashore; and your descendants shall possess the gate of their enemies. Scientists admit that they do not know how many stars there are. They have seen estimates of 10 to the 21 power stars—which is a lot of stars. While the number of grains of sand on the earth’s seashores is estimated to be 10 to the 25 powers grains of sand. Notice how close these two numbers are. I suspect when science gets a more accurate approximation they will be the same, as the Bible says.
• The air has weight. Job 28:25 To establish a weight for the wind,  And apportion the waters by measure. (The fact that air has weight was proven scientifically only about 300 years ago.)
• The Bible describes the circulation of the atmosphere.  Ecclesiastes 1:6 The wind goes toward the south, And turns around to the north; The wind whirls about continually, And comes again on its circuit. This is exactly the way our atmosphere moves.
• We have cave paintings and other evidence that people inhabited caves. The Bible also describes and explains cave men. Job 30:5,6 They were driven out from among men, They shouted at them as at a thief. They had to live in the clefts of the valleys, In caves of the earth and the rocks. (These were not ape-men, but descendants of those who scattered from Babel.)
• The Bible describes the recirculation of water.  Ecclesiastes 1:7  All the rivers run into the sea, Yet the sea is not full; To the place from which the rivers come, There they return again. This is an accurate description of the water cycle taught in science classes today.
• The Bible described the shape of the earth centuries before people thought that the earth was spherical.  Isaiah 40:22  It is He who sits above the circle of the earth,  And its inhabitants are like grasshoppers, Who stretches out the heavens like a curtain,  And spreads them out like a tent to dwell in.
• The Bible stated that the Sea floor has valleys and mountains (Psalm 18:15) 3000 years before man discovered that it did have them. It was believed so until the 1900s when oceanographers found the sea had many deep valleys or canyons. The deepest canyons were called trenches. The Marianas Trench in the Pacific is so deep that if Mt. Everest (29,000 feet high) was dropped into it, the peak would still be a mile below the water’s surface. There are also underwater mountains. The Atlantic Ocean contains an undersea range of mountains 10,000 miles long.
• The pathways in the seas (currents) discovered because of a verse in the Bible. In the 1800s, Matthew Maury, an officer in the United States Navy was reading in Psalm Chapter 8 written by King David under the unction of the Holy Spirit over 3,000 years before. He was amazed that verse 8 spoke of the fish and all creatures that swim in the "paths of the sea." What could it mean? Believing the Bible to be true, he was determined to find them. Maury discovered that the oceans have many paths or currents, which were like rivers flowing through the sea. Maury wrote the first book on oceanography and became known as "the pathfinder of the seas"— "The father of modern navigation."
• Lightning triggers the rain.  Since 68 BC science thought that somehow thunder triggered the rainfall. Now scientists are beginning to realize that as stated in Job 28:26, it is lightning that triggers the rain to fall. Job knew this 3,000 years ago.
• Bible says we are all one race (descendants of Adam & Eve). The Genome Project (mapping human DNA gene) has conclusively proven that all human being are from the same race. That is, we all are ultimately descendants of the same couple. The Bible declares that all descended from Adam and Eve. Science had declared that we are several races (Asian, Negroid, Caucasian, Middle Eastern), but finally scientific knowledge has caught up to the Biblical truth.
• Stars system exist as God describes to Job in his talk with Job. In these three questions (Job 38:31, 32) God is in reality saying:  Job, you think I am not concerned about your suffering. Well, let Me ask you these questions. Can you loose the bands of Orion? No, you cannot. But My Divine power will. Some day Orion will no longer exist. Job, can you bind the 250 stars of the Pleiades together in their symmetry of beauty and not have a single one drift off? Only I have this power and wisdom. Can you prevent the runaways — Arcturus and his sons — from colliding as they go dashing out of the Milky Way? No, only My Divine power and wisdom can. Job, if I am caring for the details of the universe, do you doubt that I not only care for the details of your life, but I have the ability to solve your problems? Trust that there is a good reason I am permitting these tragedies. Remember, Job, I work from the perspective of your eternal welfare. How can one ignore these scientific facts recorded in the book of Job concerning the Pleiades, Orion and Arcturus which anticipated scientific discovery by nearly 3,000 years.
  

What awesome confirmation of the Bible! Scientific facts revealed by God to man thousands of years before natural scientists would discovery these truths. God knew because He created it.
Don't be fooled. Don't be blinded by those who do not want to believe. Don't ignore obvious proof just because you don't like the consequences. In 2 Timothy 4:2-4 Paul exhorts Timothy to Preach the word; be diligent in season, out of season; reprove, rebuke, exhort with all longsuffering and doctrine. For the time will come when they will not endure sound doctrine; but after their own lusts shall they draw to themselves teachers, having itching ears; And they shall turn away their ears from the truth, and shall be turned unto myths.
