About this listen

 Over the past hundred years, scholars have attacked the historical truth of the Gospels and argued that they were originally anonymous and filled with contradictions. In The Case for Jesus, Brant Pitre taps into the wells of Christian scripture, history, and tradition to ask and answer a number of different questions, including: If we don't know who wrote the Gospels, how can we trust them? How are the four Gospels different from other gospels, such as the lost gospel of “Q” and the Gospel of Thomas? How can the four Gospels be historically true when there are differences between them? How much faith should be put into these writings?

As The Case for Jesus will show, recent discoveries in New Testament scholarship, as well as neglected evidence from ancient manuscripts and the early church fathers, together have the potential to pull the rug out from under a century of skepticism toward the apostolic authorship and historical truth of the traditional Gospels.

What a fascinating story of the author and how he came to write this book. There is no blind faith or leaps in the dark as he presents the evidence and facts for the story that is told in the Bible, supported by evidence outside of scripture, demolishing opposing arguments one by one. Superb.

The Truth Examined and Presented so Well

Dr Pitre illustrates how being familiar with the thoughts and customs of a 1st century Jew's we are able to explore with greater depth and awe the beautiful and transformative messages of Jesus Christ.

A refreshing look at the best story ever told.

Bought this book after watching the debate “Did Jesus Claim to be God” between O’Connor and David Wood which I found to be lacking.. this book is a serious and well document refutation to the likes of Bart Earhman ..

Alex O’Connor should resign
