Thank you so much for putting this together! Looks 1st class!
It always fascinates how a supposed book of fiction keeps so many people employed saying it is a book of fiction. Literally, what would these people be doing without this book?
They probably wouldn't be critiquing Islam, that's for sure.
Lo mismo que haces tú
It fascinates me how people are fascinated by that sort of thing. It isn't hard to figure out.
Excited to see how this turns out 👍
So pumped for this!
God bless you! Thank you for covering these rough topics! You are a true blessing to the body of Christ!
Good stuff. It’s exactly the Gospel I read to my daughter last few days, and before it was Mark. ❤
This looks great! Excited for more documentary type videos
Hyped 🔥🔥🔥🔥
I am definitely looking forward to this. Thanks for putting this together. There is so much evidence out there that most people are not aware of.
Now I can’t wait to watch this
Can't wait for it
God is good!
I'm excited
When do these videos drop? I can't wait!
Ooh nice. Count me in.
Epic editing bro!
Exciting!
Looks great!
I'll have my popcorn ready.
Awesome!
I know this is awesome!
Yes sir.
Do you plan on doing an update on your journey into The Church and what else you’ve learned about Catholicism?
McGrew!🤩
My mans has been cookin'
yessir
The gospel of Luke is the best gospel.
Can you include Marc Turnage on this one?
I was surprised not to see the name of Bart Ehrman in the list of names at the end. Why wouldn't you invite one of the most prominent expert on the question ? Should I recognize here a lack of "objectivity" ?
Should I therefore expect that _"the truth"_ that you claim will be uncovered is nothing more than your subjective _"truth"_ ?
😜
“Your subjective truth” interesting phrase. Not at all different from when secular leftists encourage their comrades to “speak THEIR truth” now is it?
@@JimmyHolt-ji8hz Yeah I have already watched it, Akin gives no historical argument, he gives nothing more than dogma and speculation...
@@MrGustavier thanks for speaking “your truth” 😅😂😅
So what if the stories are exaggerated. Does it really affect my faith...not really. Although there is some evidence in the Petronius satire that the stories were already in circulation prior to the destruction of Jerusalem. Which makes one wonder 🤔
When it comes down to it, I had to ask myself. Do I care whether or not my beliefs are true? If it matters, then the evidence and the lack thereof matters. If it doesn't, then just read the text, assume it's true, and go on.
For me, the truth matters, which is why i can no longer accept the claims as true. The evidence simply isn't there to conclude that these were eye-witness accounts.
@@BobLeach_DarkWolf I guess it is the way you see and interpret the text. As like most scriptures none of it is based on or supported by mere evidence. Or it again has very little to do with dates, facts and so on. It is however conveying a message. Allegorically speaking Jewish scribes wrote on what would move their audiences for sure. Genesis down to Revelation within the Canon, the apocrypha, and most of the pseudopagripha used narratives that were expressing personal agendas. These agendas can be seen as fully politically motivated or can be seen as how man expressed what detecting divine agency would look like in their times of need as a nation.
As for meaning and of the latter it comes apparent that the word became flesh and scripture ultimately came alive through a promised redeemer. Inturn giving light to them, surrounding nations and to the world.
But the message is still the same.
God is sovereign. He has a plan in the divine council. One of his son's, was appointed ruler* over a small, consistently oppressed nation. The son, like God, loved his chosen people. They were to convey a message to the world of redemption through grace from an imperfect creation that is also attributed by the collection of the divine counsel. As we know man is also imperfect, so the son took the initiative to come down and relay the message since the chosen people had not lived up to being a sacred people, afterwards losing their national agenda entirely.
As revelation or interpretation expands through the ages, God's"kingdom agenda is still at hand. Where we will finally reside in peace and unity with resurrected ones, with no more sickness and sufferings. That's the gospel message. But this is mostly all theological speculation and can be taken as such or for someone like me...I embrace this faith and play my role. That's all.
@@BobLeach_DarkWolfthen you haven't actually looked. The evidence is so overwhelming, it's ridiculous that anyone doesn't believe. Copies of documents that have 1000 years between the original and the copy are nit questioned. But the bible has copies made within the a century and the same people are like. Whaaaaaa its fake and untrue.
Giv'r bud
Your videos should be required viewing in the education system.
You are 100% right
Ew. No. Just, no.
Unless we’re going to start offering courses called, “Scamming in the name of Jesus”. Then I guess so.
People are trying to destroy Christianity and its credibility. Trying to make it out to be no different than any other religion. Trying to make it out to be something bad. Those same people don't talk about any other religion and if they do, it is not with the same disdain they have toward Christianity. Their efforts are in vain. Can't destroy what they didn’t build. I believe they are further confirming what God said about them in Romans 1:19-21, I think.
"skeptics insist Luke lied"
Hold up. That's not what Ehrman said in the subsequent clip, or ever if I recall correctly, though I'm not entirely certain and open to be shown otherwise.
But to my knowledge atleast Ehrman never said Luke _lied._
That's a bit too sneaky for my taste, Cameron.
It's a strawman of NT scholarship in general.
Most scholars aren't saying the Gospels *lie* ; they're saying that they are literature. Specifically, Greco-Roman Bio, which generally mix facts with legendary tropes.
It's like saying that an author of a fiction novel is lying.
Sceptics say it has two options. Luke lied, or he didn't write it.
I agree Ehrman did not say directly say in that clip that Luke lied.
But in Cameron's defense, it's psychologically difficult to see how merely hearing many anonymous free-floating stories, with no traceable connection to eyewitnesses, would amount in an honest mind to "carefully investigating everything from the beginning", much less to an account that could honestly claim to relay the events "just as they were delivered to us from eye-witnesses", even less still to delivering "certainty regarding the things you have been taught".
It's not like ancient people were unaware that innumerable exagerated & outright false stories, gossip and rumours circulated. If Ehrman's account of what Luke's Gospel is actually founded upon is correct then to my mind Luke would indeed be guilty of knowingly & malevolently misrepresenting the nature & strength of his sources of information.
@@FaptainCalcon750 "It's like saying that an author of a fiction novel is lying." LOL! you are complaining about accusations of lying, but you are lying in your comment. It is NOT like saying that an author of a fiction novel is lying. The author of a fiction novel is writing FICTION. He knows he is writing fiction. All the readers know it is fiction. Luke claimed to be writing HISTORICAL EVENTS. He claims that he is writing facts. If he is NOT writing facts, then that is called lying.
What did Ehrman actually say, then?
It is almost universally acknowledged that the Gospel of Luke and the Book of Acts were written by the beloved physician Luke. The question must be asked how accurate a historian was Luke? One of the greatest archaeologists of all time, Sir William Ramsay, didn’t think Luke was very accurate. In fact, he traveled throughout Asia Minor, Greece, and other places during the late 1800’s and early 1900’s in an attempt to refute Luke’s historical records in the Book of Acts.
Before his travels he believed that Luke couldn’t have been very accurate because of a lack of archaeological evidence to support Luke’s claims. Ramsey, after years of study, found the exact opposite to be true, and he completely reversed his position. In fact, Ramsey went on to comment: “Luke is a historian of the first rank; not merely are his statements of fact trustworthy, he is possessed of the true historic sense … in short, this author should be placed along with the greatest of historians.”
According to (Acts 1:1-3) one of Luke’s key purposes in writing the Book of Acts was to attest to the veracity of who Jesus was and that all of His claims are trustworthy. For we read: “In my former book, Theophilus, I wrote about all that Jesus began to do and to teach until the day he was taken up to heaven, after giving instructions through the Holy Spirit to the apostles he had chosen. After his suffering, he presented himself to them and gave many convincing proofs that he was alive. He appeared to them over a period of forty days and spoke about the kingdom of God.” Ramsey was so impressed with the historicity of Acts that he eventually became a Christian.
Another famous Roman historian, A.N. Sherwin-White, said: “For Acts the confirmation of historicity is overwhelming. . . . Any attempt to reject its basic historicity must now appear absurd. Roman historians have long taken it for granted.”
Most biblical scholars and historians are skeptical that Luke wrote the Gospel of Luke and don’t agree that it is historically accurate.
Your first statement is outright false.
@@JimmyHolt-ji8hz I imagine because you believe you have good evidence that I’m wrong. Can you show how either most biblical scholars agree that Luke was the author of the Gospel of Luke, or that it is historically reliable?
@@JimmyHolt-ji8hz Now see who is making a laugh-off statement! First of all, I made no such claim. My claim is not that Luke did not write the Gospel, but rather that most biblical scholars don’t think that he did. Luke could have written the Gospel and I could still be right.
Secondly, you have the burden of proof to show that my comment is laughable. I’m asking you to defend that, which I assumed you could by showing how my statement is wrong. But I guess you are confessing you don’t have an explanation for why I’m laughably wrong.
@@JimmyHolt-ji8hz I just realized the problem is you don’t understand what burden shifting is. I’m not saying I don’t have a burden, what I’m saying is that you have adopted a separate burden by saying my statement is laughable. We both have a burden since I have taken the positive position of a claim and you have taken the negative. Both positions have a burden, the only one that wouldn’t is the skeptic.
Burden shifting would be if I’d had said that I’m right because no one has proven me wrong, or asking a skeptic to prove me wrong. But asking the person who said Im wrong to defend his assertion is not burden shifting. As a matter of fact, by me asking you to defend your position, and then you saying that I must prove you wrong by defending mine IS burdened shifting.
I understand that I have a burden for my own claim, but do you understand that you also picked up a burden by saying that I’m laughably wrong? If so, please demonstrate why I’m wrong. If not, then please admit you have no defense for your claim that I’m laughably wrong.
I’ll make it easy for you: let’s just say I can’t meet my burden. What now? That doesn’t prove that you are now right that my statement is laughably wrong. You must now prove that I’m actually wrong that most biblical scholars don’t agree that Luke wrote the gospel and that it is not historically accurate.
Strange trailer.
Luke, in an attempt to get followers on tiktok, plays a massive prank on Western civilization
Stupid remark.
Hey Cam! When are you going to release your financial records demonstrating why this channel is costing you upwards of $3k per month to operate?
E-begging in the name of Jesus is just absolutely deplorable and I hope you can find it in your heart to show us why you’re doing it.
A hen.
3k per month for production costs at the quality and quantity CC produces is incredibly reasonable and quite low
@@Sancti-Fi it’s a UA-cam channel. There is no reason it should be costing $3k per month. Are you high?
@@Capt.Piklesyou are the high one
@@Sancti-Fi keep defending a grifter 😘
