This week we continue working our way through Then He Poked the Bear, a small book written by Van Kleeck Jr. in order to stir the scholastic pot. In this episode Dr. Van Kleeck, assuming a merely evidential method, will offer one historical argument, one example, and one modern phenomenon all with the aim of casting doubt on the quality of the NT originals.
Because if we doubt our Bible’s now, at least a little, it is reasonable to conclude that the first century church doubted or at least had robust reasons to doubt their Bible back then. But if the first century Church was certain that Paul’s letter to Galatia was indeed the word of God or that John’s Gospel was the word of God, then we too can be certain today of the Bible we hold in our hands.
