Kann man den Evangelien vertrauen?

Veröffentlicht am von brink4u

The Gospels―Matthew, Mark, Luke, John―are four accounts of Jesus’s life and teachings while on earth. But should we accept them as historically accurate? What evidence is there that the recorded events actually happened? This seminar will cover the nature and content of the Gospels and discuss how to respond to critics who doubt their historical reliability. This presentation is in five parts.

Part 1 – What Are the Earliest Records of Christianity? What do the earliest non-Christian sources (Tacitus, Pliny the Younger, Josephus) tell us about the beginnings of Christianity? This seminar will consider both the abundance and scarcity of evidence from the time of Jesus.

Part 2 – Did the Gospel Writers Know What They Were Writing About? This session will examine the levels of knowledge of the Gospel writers and see that they were familiar with the things they wrote about. The simplest explanation for this is that they were close in time and space to the events they recorded.

Part 3 – How Were Jesus’s Teachings Handed Down? This session will examine how Jesus’ teachings came to be recorded in the Gospels, including the languages and methods of his teaching.

Part 4 – How Do Sceptics Explain the Data? Sceptical approaches to the Gospels often have a predictable anatomy. This session will evaluate the method and claims of a leading sceptic, Professor Bart D. Ehrman.

Part 5 – What About Contradictions? This session will consider the objection that the Gospels cannot be trusted because they contain contradictions. It will also look at one of the biggest objections to the truth of the Gospels today.
