Is The New Testament Reliable Series

Contributed by David Dewitt on Apr 3, 2004

The New Testament is the best source of historical information from the time period of Jesus and it stands the test of scutiny. Therefore it is not only reliable it is the most reliable document of its kind!

Is the New Testament a reliable source of information? The four gospels (Matthew, mark, Luke and John) give us a biography for the life of Jesus and they provide us with a wealth of information. One statement that I heard just recently is that the gospels were written as a way to communicate faith ...read more

Faith In The 21st Century: The Seven Key Aspects Of Faith

Contributed by Justin Steckbauer on Apr 28, 2021

By faith we understand that the universe was created by the word of God, so that what is seen was not made out of things that are visible." Hebrews ...read more

Is There Evidence That Jesus Christ Is Alive After Death? An Examination Of The Facts

Contributed by Justin Steckbauer on Apr 10, 2023

For me, it’s obvious that Jesus Christ is alive right now. Because he changed my life forever. He set me free from sins and addictions. He changed my family. My grandpa. My mom. He’s still changing lives everyday in this very city, and across the face of the Earth.

All the good in the world wouldn’t really be good, all the bad wouldn’t really be bad, all our work would be for nothing, and our lives would be truly ...read more
