Evidence for God from Science

An atheist recommended I read this book:

The Invention of Jesus: How the Church Rewrote the New Testament



The author has some stuff on YouTube:

Thanks.

It's obvious why an atheist would like this guy.

But if you are interested in truth regarding the text and historical context of the New Testament, I would stick to knowledgeable scholars like NT Wright and Daniel Wallace.

Christian 2 - you ask a lot of question about what others think about this or that related to Christianity. I see your profile shows no indication of what you believe, faith-wise. Are you a follower of Christ?

Yes, I am a follower of Christ; my nickname should tell you that.

Here is an excellent lecture by Dan Wallace on the "Corruption of the New Testament Text"

It is worth noting that Christian2 has been a member of this site longer than most, including current and former mods. I've followed closely his posts/questions particularly as related to witnessing to moslems.

Keep up the good work.

My work with Muslims is about finished. I think I did what God wanted me to do.

I remember when I first signed up here I was not a believer even though being brought up in a Christian family and going to Sunday School and church for years.

I came here for help and got it.

JAC helped me a lot. I wish I knew the name of his church so I could listen to some of his sermons.

I think this particular atheist I'm talking with is beyond help. There is always an excuse for not believing.

Christian2, sorry I didn't know you are a believer - I would have if I'd looked at your older posts. But sometimes when a poster asks many questions and I see their profile lacks a description of their belief, I'll just ask the question. It's hard to remember every poster's history.

Not a problem.
