      ​@@HealitnowI did my recent Israel World War 3 video on this! I think that we're in the last minute, of the last hour, of the last days! What do you think? I think the globalists have planned World War 3 to happen, and the one world government is already setup. Once WW3 happens (in next few years), the Antichrist will step in.

    "To speak about the number of variants without also speaking about the number of manuscripts is an irresponsible appeal to sensationalism."

    Thank you Mr. Wallace for all your hard work and effort for the Glory of God. Praise the Lord for people like you 💝.
    One thing I enjoy sharing is how the book of Daniel is UnBunkable. This OT book is dated long before Jesus (Exact not relevant), and how it prophesied over 2300 years worth of prophecy, but to be more exact is the 70 week prophecy, where that last week is all about Jesus and the ending of the daily sacrifices (mist of week), written by a man hundreds of years before Jesus.
    Daniel I believe cannot be Bunked by anyone my opinion and yes I have tried. This book led me out of the Religion of Atheism, .. praise the Lord 💝.

    Great presentation, J. WARNER Wallace! I listen to everything you produce, and currently reading your books, Cold Case Christianity and God's Crime Scene! I've had these questions also regarding Bible's trustworthiness because of what Bart Erhman said. But, as I can see, these variations, although involved human copying errors, doesn't determine the whole message or change it in any way. God uses imperfect human beings all the time, even allowing for copying errors or not adding the Prostitute passahe until later. Apparently, these passages still have supernatural inspiration and power and have transformed millions of lives over history. And accurately speak on the LOVE of God that prefers mercy over sacrifice.

      If you trust the writers of the New Testament, then I can help you.
      John says this: "In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. He was in the beginning with God. All things were made through him, and without him was not any thing made that was made. In him was life, and the life was the light of men. The light shines in the darkness, and the darkness has not overcome it. ... And the Word became flesh and dwelt among us, and we have seen his glory, glory as of the only Son from the Father, full of grace and truth."
      Paul says this to the Colossians: "For in [Jesus] the whole fullness of deity dwells bodily, and you have been filled in him, who is the head of all rule and authority."
      Peter opens his second epistle like this: "To those who have obtained a faith of equal standing with ours by the righteousness of our God and Savior Jesus Christ..."
      And Jesus himself claims to be God multiple times. Here's one example in John that I find the most convincing: "Jesus said to them, 'Truly, truly, I say to you, before Abraham was, I am.' So they picked up stones to throw at him, but Jesus hid himself and went out of the temple."

    Bart Errman was NEVER a saved Christian since he doesn't believe in miracles(resurrection)
    ••My personal OPINION is that Bart Errman went to college specifically to learn as much as he could, as well as he could, so to poke as many holes he possibly can in scripture, using mental waterboarding tactics. He holds to his advantage people with titles and appeal as colleagues, and relies on the fact that most Christians don't read or study the Bible and cower to him because of his prestige and their own ignorance.
    ••Luke 16: 27Then he said, I pray thee therefore, father, that thou wouldest send him to my father's house:
    28For I have five brethren; that he may testify unto them, lest they also come into this place of torment.
    29Abraham saith unto him, THEY HAVE MOSES AND THE PROPHETS; let them hear them.
    30And he said, Nay, father Abraham: but if one went unto them from the dead, they will repent.
    31And he said unto him, IF THEY HEAR NOT Moses and the prophets, NEITHER will they BE PERSUADED, though one ROSE FROM THE DEAD. (KJV)
    ••2 Corinthians 3: 12Seeing then that we have such hope, we use great plainness of speech:
    13And not as Moses, which put a vail over his face, that the children of Israel could not stedfastly look to the end of that which is abolished:
    14But THEIR MINDS WERE BLINDED: for UNTIL THIS DAY REMAINETH the SAME VAIL untaken away in the reading of the old testament; WHICH VAIL IS DONE AWAY in CHRIST.
    15But EVEN UNTO THIS DAY, when Moses is read, the VAIL IS UPON THEIR HEART. (KJV)
    ••2 Corinthians 4: 1Therefore seeing we have this ministry, as we have received mercy, we faint not;
    2But have renounced the HIDDEN things of DISHONESTY, not walking in CRAFTINESS, nor HANDLING the WORD of God DECEITFULLY; but by manifestation of the truth commending ourselves to every man's conscience in the sight of God.
    3But IF our gospel BE HID, it is HID TO THEM THAT ARE LOST:
    4In whom the god of THIS WORLD(Satan) hath BLINDED THE MINDS of THEM WHICH BELIEVE NOT, lest the light of the glorious gospel of Christ, who is the image of God, should shine unto them. (KJV)

    When you compound the self-correcting nature of language, with a book that is studied by thousands of scholars, and the providence of God, it becomes impossible for an error to slip through. That leaves only one possibility for the variations: they are deliberate.
