If it's true that the Bible contains scientific facts that were written thousands of years before man discovered them, the implications are staggering. These facts would be evidence that the Bible is the word of God, and its promise of Heaven and threat of Hell are therefore not to be mocked or ignored.
"Ten of the Top Scientific Facts in the Bible" is a half-hour of awe-inspiring and faith-building video, filled with ancient biblical truths—the earth’s free float in space, the dinosaur and why it disappeared, laws of quarantine, the earth being round, and much more.
This is a powerful resource to encourage Christians, and to challenge the most hardened skeptic to take the claims of the gospel seriously.
"Excellent! This video will captivate you." -Jeff Seto, Aerospace Engineer & author.
This video is a part of the Living Waters "Lightning Productions" resource line. This line is focused on creating simple yet powerful videos that can be used as effective evangelistic tools to reach the lost. The simplified nature of these new productions (in contrast to our higher budget and graphics-intensive movies) will enable us to produce more videos, and in a shorter amount of time.

Some good reads on this topic would be Josh McDowell's Evidence That Demands a Verdict, as well as Lee Strobels's The Case for... series. Both authors came from an agnostic/atheist background and sought to examine the historical evidence of the Christian faith in order to disprove it. The first was preparing a paper, the second was seeking to debunk his wife's conversion to Christianity. However, prompted by the results of their investigation, they instead ended up converting to Christianity themselves, as they found more evidence for it than against it.
"After I set out to refute Christianity intellectually and couldn't, I came to the conclusion the Bible was true and Jesus Christ was God's Son."

As a young man, Josh McDowell considered himself an agnostic. He believed that Christianity was worthless until he started researching it more in depth in order to intellectually refute it in a paper. Today, he is a Christian apologist and evangelist. As a practitioner of Christian apologetics, McDowell's writings have concentrated on addressing challenges to belief, questions posed by non-Christians, doubts about faith, and non-Christian religions. McDowell tends to present positive arguments to commend belief in Jesus Christ by emphasizing historical and legal proofs to establish the authenticity of the biblical texts and the divinity of Christ.
"All Christians should be able to articulate reasons why they believe what they believe - not just for the sake of our spiritually confused friends, but also so that we ourselves will have a deeper and more confident faith."

Lee Strobel, an investigative journalist, was an atheist when he began investigating the Biblical claims about Christ after his wife's conversion. His first book, The Case for Christ retraces his conversion to Christianity. His personal journey was also the topic of a movie made after the book. Strobel also hosted a TV show called Faith Under Fire, where guests would debate current issues related to Christianity and runs a video apologetics web site.

The one thing that the atheists of the 19th and early 20th century had going for them was that science wasn't advanced enough to prove the existence of God. In other words: atheism is a stupid misunderstanding based on a faulty and outdated understanding of science. Today, in the second decade of the 21th century, they no longer have that excuse. Atheism's gigantic error is that they confuse the mechanism with the engineer and that they, mistakenly, believe that a working system doesn't (or didn't - if you have to believe some Deists) have an engineer. It's an absurd notion.
Wake up and smell the coffee.

Ken Ham talks about how science confirms the Bible: DNA as evidence for the infinite God, the basics of genetics and natural selection as they relate to biblical "kinds," the origin of races, the truth about Cain's wife, evidence for the worldwide Flood, the actual time of the Ice Age, literal vs. figurative creation days, the origin of death, dating methods, and more.
An American homicide detective and former atheist, J. Warner Wallace presents ten principles of cold-case homicide cases and uses them to investigate the claims of the New Testament gospels. Wallace became a Christian after investigating the gospels as potential eyewitness accounts to the life of Jesus.
