The Survival Of The Bible (4 of 7 notes)

Part Two
Bibliology: 10 BIBLE EVIDENCES- Continued
A DISPENSATIONAL THEOLOGY
By Charles F Baker

Ungodly men have attempted to destroy the Bible in various ways. Political leaders have tried to destroy it by violence. Leaders of the Roman Church have withheld it from the laity by burning translations of it in their own languages, along with the translators. It has been stated by many that Voltaire predicted that the Bible and Christianity would be extinct within one hundred years.⁹ It should be remembered that Voltaire was not an atheist and that his main conflict was with the corrupt Roman Catholic clergy of France.
