Traditionally ancient historians have used records of the reign’s of Egyptian kings as the basis of their chronology. This has lead many to believe that the Old Testament gives an unreliable record of history. However recent evidence suggests that a number of Egyptian kings reigned simultaneously rather than consecutively. Mark Woolmer explains this is taken into account striking similarities are found between the Egyptian and Hebrew records and new light is shed on archaeological discoveries. This is a fascinating exploration of the current debate in ancient history. Egyptian Clay Tablets Found – 5000 Years Old – www.youtube.com Edinburgh Creation Group

Brown’s “tall tale” novel sold over 40 million copies and he has an estimated worth of around $56 million. Part of Brown’s book’s success is due to its outrageous claims such as: 1. Until 325

Lee Strobel introduces the case for the reliability of the Bible as a historical document
Josh introduces the debate of scholars towards the authorship of the Pentateuch. Jesus Himself quotes Moses 16 times and attributed to him the Pentateuch, but what about the dates and the development of the writing system?
The civilization of Ebla existed 1000 years before Moses and existed for 800 years as a great civilization. The finds from this excavation site revealed two distinct languages used during the reign of Ebla.
“The ‘great cause’ of the apostles died on the cross.” Hear Josh as he explains the Jewish teaching of the Messiah.
Josh discusses the historical reliability of the Old Testament.
The apostles throughout the New Testament appealed to two areas of Christ’s life to establish His Messiahship. One was fulfilled messianic prophecy and the other was the resurrection. The Old Testament, written over a 1500 year period contains several hundred references to the coming Messiah. All of these were fulfilled in Christ and they establish a solid confirmation of His credentials as the Messiah.

Email: Rechristianitizing@sonicandpals.com The very fast and more or less a summary of the mass of evidence of the historical validity of the bible. Again, Josh McDowell’s Evidence that Demands a Verdict is a good book, it’s all bullet points and “5a, 5b, 6a, 6b” etc type of stuff. Another good book is A Case for Christ, which was written by an non-Christian lawyer to see if the new testament could be found ‘not false’ in a hypothetical court of law. He researched and found no falsities in the text pertaining to culture, events, etc etc, and later became a Christian

Did Jesus really fulfill Bible prophecies as Christians claim? What evidence is there to support this theory? Jesus did indeed fulfill prophecies made several hundred years before His birth, death and resurrection. The discovery of the Dead Sea Scrolls (copies of most Old Testament books) should further confirm to skeptics the prophecies contained in them were made long before the earthly ministry of Jesus. “One of the scrolls in the Dead Sea Caves was a complete MS of the Hebrew text of Isaiah. It is dated by paleographers around 125 BC”—from “The New Evidence That Demands A Verdict.” by Josh

The first is called the internal test. Do the writers of the Bible claim what they are writing is true? The External test referees to what non-biblical sources say about the Bible. The third test is the bibliographical test which deals with how well the original manuscripts were preserved and then translated into what we have today. Blomberg, Craig L. The Historical Reliability

A teaching on how we got the Old testament part of the Bible, including archeological evidence of the historicity of the Bible, and date of authorship. Using powerpoint resources from Rose Publishing, and Josh McDowell. The teacher is Duncan Forbes, Pastor at New Life Church, Roehampton, South West London www.newlifelondon.com www.duncanf.blogspot.com
Was Jesus an actual person? Did he do the miraculous deeds that are recorded in the Gospels? Christianity stands or falls on this historical dilemma. I get to the root of why some people opt for belief, and others skepticism.
Some of the archeological evidence tellings us that we can believe what is written in the New Testament.
