What's coming up? Let's plunge into the Deeper Waters and find out.
Can we trust the Gospels? One of the questions that this comes down to often is the question of who their sources are. Were they written by eyewitnesses? Did they use eyewitnesses? Can we really trust anonymous sources like the Gospels? Did the Gospels even cite their sources?
Even if the Gospels are eyewitness testimonies, can we still trust them? Can't eyewitnesses get things wrong? Why should we treat the Gospels as if they are serious historical works and their information is something that we can base our lives on?
In order to discuss this, I decided to have come on a second time a scholar who has done in-depth research on this. He has done so much that he has updated his great work on this topic. The work is*Jesus and the Eyewitnesses and the author and scholar is none other than Richard Bauckham. So who is he?
I hope you'll be watching for this episode. We're going to get a good in-depth look at this important book that every student of the New Testament needs to know about. Please be watching for this one and go on iTunes and leave a positive review of the Deeper Waters Podcast.
In Christ,
Nick Peters
