"The Gospels DON'T Contain Eyewitness Testimony!" | The Historical Tell | Trailer 2

This isn't 100% related to the video, but I saw Bart Ehrman in the thumbnail and couldn't resist commenting. A couple years ago, Bart Ehrman and Paulogia made a response video to your Gary Habermas video, where they basically said that Habermas was making up the fact that Bart Ehrman admitted the 1 Corinthians 15 creed dates to the early 30s AD. This was a big deal in both the CC and Paulogia communities at the time since nobody could find a time when Ehrman had dated the Corinthian creed early, and it damaged Habermas' credibility. However, digging through Ehrman's blog I actually realized that he was either being DECEPTIVE, or at the best FORGOT his previous statements on the 1 Corinthians creed. In his June 2nd, 2016 article titled "The Core of Paul's Gospel", he says that we know that Christianity pre-dated Paul's conversion in part BECAUSE of the 1 Corinthians 15 creed. This ONLY MAKES SENSE if he believes the content of the creed existed BEFORE 32-34 AD when Paul converted. The exact quote is: "In 1 Corinthians 15:3-6 Paul is reminding his Corinthian converts the very heart and core of his Gospel message that he preached to them when he first was among them. They, at the time, were pagans, and he preached to them about Christ’s death and resurrection – because that was the message of salvation that he himself had received from others...It is widely thought that it may have been some kind of creed that was recited in the Christian churches, or possibly a statement of faith that was to be recited by recent converts at their baptism, a creed that is being quoted by Paul here (not composed by him when writing the letter). It is often thought to have been crafted by someone other than Paul. It was a tradition floating around in the church that encapsulated the Christian faith, putting it all in a nutshell. Paul inherited this creed, just as he inherited the theology it embodies. He didn’t invent the idea that Jesus’ death and resurrection brought salvation. **That was the view of Christians before him.**" (notice the last sentence). So there we have it; Bart Ehrman contradicted himself in a very material way, and it was done as a knee-jerk response to refute apologists in any way possible. This needs to be brought up publicly and visibly, since it shows atheists will be intellectually dishonest and change their tune, whenever it suits their needs, in order to contradict apologists.

I am a non-believer who is interested in the truth. I haven't been persuaded yet of Gospel's authenticity and historicity. I am looking forward to this series to gain more insight and challenge my ideas.

Jesus' own words "who do YOU say that I am?" is really aimed at every human who has the exposure & opportunity to confront that question. Because God's a gentleman, He can't force us to love Him (The Inquisition was a dismal, diabolical failure in every regard 💔) and His desire for relationship with each of us is infinitely more powerful & profound than any human efforts at debunking His existence & His Word.

You will never turn skeptics into believers at least from the online atheist community. This isnt an intellectual problem, its a psychological problem, a problem of the heart not of the head for many.

Oh this is going to be good!

Looking forward to it! I've always thought the argument that Luke in particular was anonymous is kind of dumb, since it even names the patron within the document itself, so there were at least some substantial community who knew who wrote Luke from the get-go.

Can't wait for this!

Truth always wins! Praise Jesus Christ - The Truth

lol I love that you’ve got Licona and McGrew back to back in who you’re featuring here. They’re on the same team.

Really excited for this bro, great job!

No amount of "intellectual superiority"/attacks bring repentance. Great minds throughout history have tackled the same issue: the rebellious human nature/our stubborn hearts towards God. He won't give up like the father of the prodigal son because He loves us too much!!💕🌿

This is going to be good! I can’t wait

God leads my life

I am so looking forward to this!

Exciting!!! I know what I'll be doing on Christmas 😊 Merry Christmas!

this is the best Christmas present ever !!! Thank you Cameron and everyone who worked on this :)

This is so sad. I know what it’s like to be afraid not to believe. It’s a book that helped people when they didn’t have anything else to give them hope outside of themselves and life. Capturing Christianity, provide the actual documents.

I can't wait!!!

Thanks again Cameron. If I ever don't get screamed at, I can use this info for sure.

This looks like it'll be dope. Can't wait. 😁
