We saw how you date manuscripts. Now, the question: Is what we have in the New Testament what was written down or has it been changed? The first question is asked of what we looked at called the Bibliographical test is this: What is the timeline? How far are the copies that you have removed from the original?
When you examine any document of history not just the Bible you apply the bibliographical test. And that test asks questions of the manuscript which is a handwritten document. Now why do they have to ask questions of the manuscript?
Josh McDowell introduces us to two questions he'll be examining: Is what I have what was written down or has it been changed? And was what was written down true?
Under investigation, can you come to a reasonable conclusion …Yes I can trust the testimony about the Christian faith, about the New Testament, about the Old Testament. This is what we will look at in a number of segments. What is the testimony, and is it reliable? Is it accurate? Is it trustworthy?
What is History? How can you study history if you don't have a definition of what history is? Josh McDowell gives us a working definition of history in this segment.
