ON THE ACCURACY OF THE GOSPELS

“Biographies written about subjects who lived in the recent past, relative to the time of writing (e.g. those by Tacitus and Suetonius), especially those penned in the early Roman Empire, were generally marked by a greater concern for factual accuracy. In such cases, biographers were expected to reject implausibilities and to seek to write what was true. The Gospels, penned within fifty or so years after Jesus’ ministry, fall into this category.”

“That the Gospel writers were determined to produce an accurate account of Jesus’ life is especially clear in the opening of one of them, the Gospel of Luke (Luke 1:1-4). This prologue is very much in the mold of Thucydides, Polybius, and Josephus. Luke clearly claims to be writing history conforming to the highest standards of Greco-Roman historiography.”

“SAME POWER”

I love this new song by Jeremy Camp.  Based on passages in Ephesians and Romans, the message is that the same power that God used to raise Jesus from the dead lives in us.

QUOTE(s) of the WEEK

“Jesus Christ has broken the power of Satan;…and henceforth evil spirits, instead of having power over us, tremble and are [terrified] of every true Christian.” – John Henry Newman, 1801-1890

“Christians are not so much in danger when they are persecuted as when they are admired.” – Charles Spurgeon

“Satan doesn’t look like a terrible monster… In fact, he does what he can to disguise himself and make himself invisible so he won’t be blamed or fought as the enemy. Camouflaged in deception, he’ll manipulate circumstances and situations [and people] against you.” – Charles Stanley, “When the Enemy Strikes”

LAUGHTER IS GOOD MEDICINE:

“Some people ask the secret of our long marriage. We take time to go to a restaurant two times a week. A little candlelight, dinner, soft music and dancing. She goes Tuesdays, I go Fridays.” Henny Youngman
