Of course some will say the Bible isn’t accurate, written by men and filled with errors. Again, one has to decide. Either the Bible is a reasonably accurate record or it’s not. If it’s an accurate record inspired by God, then that requires action on the part of the reader. The Bible itself doesn’t permit a middle ground. Either believe or not.

There are things the Holy Spirit hid in the Bible which does prove its accuracy.

For instance, I recently learned that the geneology in Matthew 1, in the Greek, has the following properties:

The number of words are divisible by 7.

Number of letters divisible by 7.

The same holds true for vowels, consonants, the number of words beginning with a consonant, the number of words that occur more than once, number of words that occur in more than one form, number of words that occur in only one form, nouns, names, male names, generations.

This phenomenon is repeated in other places in the NT.
