Has the Bible Been Changed?

The Reliability of the Scriptures According to Jewish, Christian, and Islamic Sources

About this book

Muslims all over the world are ignoring the message of the New Testament because their teachers say its text has been corrupted. Yet very few of them have checked to see whether what their teachers say is true.
- David Byle, chairman of the Bible Correspondence Course in Turkey (bccturkey.org)What does it take to persuade an entire Islamic nation to recall and rewrite their religious education materials in order to no longer teach that the Bible has been changed? Only one thing: the Qur'an itself. The Qur'an clearly states that the Bible has not been changed and, even more shockingly, says that anyone who teaches that the Bible has been changed is in fact doomed to hell. This book, Has the Bible Been Changed?, was the reason that in 1996 the Department of Religious Affairs in Turkey recalled their existing teaching materials. As you explore these pages, you will see exactly what the Qur'an says that is so powerful that even Islamic leaders are caused to reverse course. But this book is not persuasive with many words. Rather, it shows the reader Scripture verses and other pertinent facts that will help lead one to the ultimate Truth, that there is indeed only one God, and the way to Him is through His Son, Jesus Christ. It behooves you to read this book to know that you can put your faith and confidence in the entire Bible, that it is indeed the unchangeable, inerrant Word of God. And we did give Moses the guidance and made the Children of Israel to inherit the Scripture. A guide and a reminder for men of understanding (Mu'min 40: 53-54).

Introduction
Having served as an open church-planting missionary in Turkey and the Middle East for more than thirty years, one of the most frequent issues that I have come across in religious dialogue with Muslims is the Muslim claim that “the Bible has been changed.” Young children growing up in the Middle East have been taught in mandatory religious education classes...
