Is The Bible True? (Part 1)
Individual TopicsSteve Gregg
In this talk, Steve Gregg discusses the question of whether the Bible is true. Greg explains that the Bible is a collection of 66 separate documents written by approximately 40 authors over a period of 1,400 years, and its claim for truth remains despite being academically attacked in various ways especially in the past 40 years. He argues that the Gospels are reliable historical documents that apply to tests of credibility, and work as a source of information on Jesus. Critics who claim that the Bible has been significantly altered are misinformed and misguided.
