pt 12 Archaeology and the Bible (full-length)

The following is a clip in it's entirety in FAIRs response to the anti-Mormon video "The Bible vs. The Book of Mormon". Shorter clips have been previously posted on the FAIR Youtube site.
In the anti-Mormon video, the critics portray the Bible perfectly established by archaeology, and The Book of Mormon completey un-established by archaeology. Let it be clear, LDS believe the Bible to be the word of God and accept it as scripture. The purpose of this clip is to show that the Bible has not been 100% proven, but is still the revealed word of God.

His promise is:

“Come unto me, all ye that labour and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest.

“Take my yoke upon you, and learn of me; for I am meek and lowly in heart: and ye shall find rest unto your souls” (Matthew 11:28–29).

@habfan24 my point is that the Bible says there was a flood, archeology says something different. Which one is correct?

[habfan24]

@omiolo LOL, really. So do you think that their was no flood at all, or just a minor one. Did you look into that? or are you just repeating what you heard without researching it, because that is more believable than your statement.

Lets see some facts, some archeological evidence from Mormon side, are you all talk and no proof? why do Mormons claim to be Christians when the movie totally prove this. but so far I see the defense i all talk no proof.

Digitized records from the Church of the Latter-Day Saints will back-up documents in the civil registry of Manila archived during the period covering 1886 to 1996.

Manila Mayor Alfredo Lim received on Feb. 10 the first 500-gigabytes hard disk of a three-part storage of a centurys file involving up to 100 million individual entries.

maybe you have NEVER heard of the flood!

Archeology has refuted a world wide flood.

No archaeological discovery has ever controverted a biblical reference. (McDowell, Evidence that Demands a Verdict).

The Bible can be trusted. If people say it can't be trusted, they can just add any book such as the Book of Mormon or the Apocrypha or Quran to canon of scripture calling it God's Word. Very dangerous.

The Bible tells us when God used prophets to reveal new info about Himself. Luke 16:16, Matt 11:13, Heb 1:1

LHVM is reaching. It will never truly know the nature of God, nor will God recognize their baptism.

Jericho of the Bible ---> yeah, find that!
