Is the New Testament historically reliable? Was the New Testament influenced by pagan thought, especially the mystery religions of the Roman Empire
such as Mithraism? Did the New Testament writers misuse the Old Testament Messianic prophecies and create a "false" Messiah named Jesus Christ in order to rob Israelite descendents of the
birthright blessings from God? Is Christianity a fraud, a sham, an elaborate lie concocted by Satan the Devil to deceive mankind into thinking they need a suffering Savior for their sins?
This second edition of this research tackles these and related questions asked by agnostics, atheists and liberal higher critics of the Bible. Mr.
Snow delves head-long into many accusations raised against the New Testament scriptures and offers evidence defending the accuracy and divine inspiration of the Gospel writers. This
thorough work is a must for your Biblical library.
Some of the arguments analyzed and topics discussed in this work include:
Is the New Testament a FIRST century document? How can we be certain the RIGHT BOOKS are in the New Testament? Does the New Testament CONTRADICT itself? Were the resurrection appearances of Jesus HALLUCINATIONS? Were Old Testament Messianic prophecies quoted in New Testament taken OUT OF CONTEXT? Is the New Testament ANTI-SEMITIC? How does non-Biblical historical information CONFIRM the New Testament? Was the New Testament canon determined from the top-down by the CATHOLIC CHURCH? Do certain Messianic prophecies CONTRADICT the New Testament? |
