Here's another topic for a thread...Socrates is known as an early philosopher, but we do not possess anything that he wrote. All we know about Socrates comes from his student Plato. Just as Jesus left no written record, what we know about Socrates was written by his followers. There is far less...

Here's another link that shows the superiority of Biblical manuscript evidence when compared to other ancient writings: https://truthfaithandreason.com/case-making-101-how-does-the-bible-compare-to-other-ancient-documents/ I am waiting with bated breath for the new thread that casts doubt on...

Why? Why is that a problem for you? The followers of Jesus expected Him to return during their lifetime. Notice how Paul thought he would be alive: 1 Thessalonians 4:15 For this we say unto you by the word of the Lord, that we which are alive and remain unto the coming of the Lord shall not...

Acts may have been written in 60AD but the events recorded began after Jesus ascended. Acts 4 records the arrest of and threats to Peter and John. I don’t have two or three sources. I only have the one. So that’s what I will ask of you — only one eyewitness to refute the resurrection of Jesus.

Yep. Go to Blueletterbible.com

No apologies necessary my friend. I am not offended in the least bit by yours or William’s posts. We’re all good here.

This is a phrase that keeps coming up that is completely misunderstood by the one using it. Let's look at the phrase in it's Biblical context: 1 Corinthians 3:3-7 For ye are yet carnal: for whereas there is among you envying, and strife, and divisions, are ye not carnal, and walk as men? For...

Hahaha…so you feel qualified and privileged enough to rewrite the Gospel as a nonbeliever?….hahaha. Well, good luck with that. Just know that as an actual practicing Christian and preacher of the Gospel I will always proclaim the true message.

Peter and John were both arrested within three months of Jesus’ resurrection and commanded to stop preaching the resurrection of Christ. There was plenty of time for the religious leaders to exhume the body.

Absolutely: Strong’s Definitions μετά metá, met-ah'; a primary preposition (often used adverbially); properly, denoting accompaniment; "amid" (local or causal); modified variously according to the case (genitive association, or accusative succession) with which it is joined; occupying an...

I’m sorry, that may be your opinion, and you are welcome to whatever opinion you desire, but you do not have the privilege of rewriting the Gospel. The good news is the good news whether you like it or not. The Gospel remains the good news of God’s redemption of mankind through the sacrificial...

The word “Satan” simply means “adversary”: Jesus’ purpose for coming to this world was to die on the cross in order to redeem mankind. Peter’s rebuke of Jesus made him an adversary ofJesus’ plan.

God's one true message has remained intact for over two thousand years: Man is sinful, but Jesus took our sins upon Himself and died as our substitute. The only way to Heaven is by faith in the person and work of Jesus Christ. The Gospel has not changed since it was first preached. There are...

Whether it was a deliberate lie, or just juicy embellishment, why are there no contradictions to the claims from the time period? The truth is there is not a single counter to the Biblical accounts. If Jesus did not arise from the dead, then why aren't there records to refute this claim? It...

Doing research in the Greek does help. This is a part of doing proper Bible study.

Peter was one of 12 that followed Jesus. In fact, it was Peter’s brother Andrew who introduced Pete to Jesus. Andrew and John were the first two to follow Jesus. If the Gospels are not true; if Peter did concoct the whole Jesus stuff, why aren’t there contemporaneous writings that refute the...

1 John 4:1-5 Beloved, believe not every spirit, but try the spirits whether they are of God: because many false prophets are gone out into the world. Hereby know ye the Spirit of God: Every spirit that confesseth that Jesus Christ is come in the flesh is of God. And every spirit that confesseth...

I believe that was Paul's intent. Paul wanted to remove attention from human activity and turn the spotlight on God. As a preacher of the Gospel, I completely understand Paul's motivation. Unfortunately, there are men today who are in the ministry who want the glory for what the Lord is doing. I...

Your piece was interesting, but completely impractical. You want to remove God from the very premise He gave. Not only is removing God impractical, but it is also impossible. I noticed several statements you made that reveals God is active: If a seed contains programming, then someone had to...

After Jesus’ resurrection He invites the disciples to verify He was not just a spirit, but He had an actual body: Luke 24:39 Behold my hands and my feet, that it is I myself: handle me, and see; for a spirit hath not flesh and bones, as ye see me have. Notice, He does not say His body was...
