God Knew - Paperback

by Perry Sherman (Author)

Apologist, engineer, scientist, and psychologist Perry Sherman uses historical evidence and hard numbers to show beyond reasonable doubt that Old Testament prophets knew the future. God wants you to know yours. Doubt that? Then this book is for you.

Mathematician Peter Stoner calculated the staggering probabilities behind prophetic fulfillment in "Science Speaks." Josh McDowell made those numbers widely known. Many have cited them since. This book provides a needed modern update without relying on student surveys or dated assumptions. Perry walks through each step with clear logic, supported by concise tables and charts, so readers can defend the reliability of Scripture and hand the book to a skeptical neighbor with confidence. Perry draws from his years as a scientist, engineer, apologist, and psychotherapist to shape a compelling and practical guide.

Jesus fulfilled at least 64 detailed prophecies spoken centuries before His birth-none of which a person could influence, including birthplace. Using accepted historical methodology and current archaeological data, Sherman shows that the chance of fulfilling just eleven by accident is less than 1 in 41 sextillion (10 ). If you want stronger confidence in your faith, struggle to answer questions about whether the Bible is man-made, or need a resource to spark conversations about Jesus, this book delivers.

The book includes quick reference charts comparing the four pillars of document reliability with other ancient texts. If a person trusts any historical record, the Bible stands even stronger. The final chapter answers the question "so what?" God tells us not to worry about tomorrow. This book offers assurance and peace by showing that Scripture anchors your future in something certain. You can walk by faith without needing to see every detail because you can trust that God already does.
