A special guest joins Keith in the studio, but first an answer to a few
challenges to whether the Bible is reliable, and can be trusted.
Myths include:
The bible was made up by the emperor Constantine.
There was no Christian god, before Jesus was invented in the early 300's AD.
the Bible was canonized by Constantine to suit his political agendas.
Christianity would never have spread if not for the corrupting influence of
the Roman emperor.
The oldest surviving manuscripts only dat to the Middle Ages, so how can they
be trusted to be accurate in relzating events that happened a thousand years
earlier?
A scan through accepted secular histories can debunk all these myths. It's
easy to date copies of the oldest fragments of the New Testament to around
300AD. Being copies, we know there were originals long in existence before
this. Plus the earliest church leaders, students of the original disciples,
widely quoted from the books and writings we now call the New Testament .
Where did corruption come from, if the church has become corrupt? From people
who hide the Bible away, and teach their own agendas above what god says in
his word. When in doubt, throw out the commentary, and read what the Bible
says.
Since the original writings are no longer with us, the thing to do is stop
talking about how we came to have the Bible, or how it was preserved, and
read what it actually says about itself, and about what god wants. Keith
includes 11 points from J Warner Wallace's book, Cold Case Christianity to
prove the early dates for the writings, the witnesses, and how to know the
events are real.
Main Topic
Bible Survey 16. Jesus Fulfills the Law
Matthew 5:17-20; Romans 8:1-4
Summary:
He came to fulfill the law.
They that are in Christ, are free from condemnation.
John Steinklaubber joins in to discuss what it means to have the law
fulfilled, The law is important, and will not pass until the end of time.
Still, it carries a heavy weight in responsibility if we expect to live up to
god's standards. If you can't meet the standard of perfection.
For the rest of us, we need the new covenant that Jesus offers. The law of
the spirit liberates, and reconciles us to be part of god's kingdom.
To wrap up, we flip the usual format to put some random questions at the end.
Enjoy our fun discussion of discovering our true passions in life.
