I cried when I heard him talk about our easy access to the whole word of God, and the men that gave their lives to protect the readers. Please think on these things my friends. God bless
What he doesnt tell you is the text that those men died for isnt the one you have in your new versions. Your new versions come from the very people who killed those men.
What a privilege to have the very Word of God so readily available. Today I'm thankful for those from days past that God used to preserve it. Thank you for this message.
The Catholic Church preserved the word of god that’s a fact Luther took out 7 books and changed doctrine so if you are a denominations you can be certain you haven’t got the preserved word of god based on a truth of reality.
@JosephBelloo Thanks for your opinion now I will give you truth Jesus Christ gave his authority to peter to build his church the bible was put together by the Catholic Church in the 3rd century Christianity didn’t change till the 16th century when a Catholic priest Martin Luther stripped down the bible and created traditions of men(denominations) the rapture is a false 19th century doctrine not based on scripture and divided even amongst the denominations.If you want to follow and understand Christ join his church the one,holy,apostolic Catholic Church
@JosephBelloo Just checked them out sounds interesting but the truth is you broke from Christ’s authoritive church and judging by you saying rapture your making up your own interpretation that tells me your faith is just another denomination outside the Catholic Church
I thank God for my Roman Catholic friend who invited me to my first ever debate with Dr. White and Tim Staples on Sola Scriptura. Ever since then I have followed Dr. White's ministry. God has used him tremendously in my life.
To the one reading this, remember that in every circumstance, God is your constant companion. He leads your way, stands by your side, and watches over you. Take confidence in the knowledge that God is present in your life. Amen 🙏💖🌟
@@o.o.2255 The Catholics were in Alexandria, Egypt, where agnosticism reigned? Did they transcribe the Codex Sinaiticus, which disagreed with the Codex Vaticanus no less than 8000 times? As NASA might hear: Houston, we have a problem.
@@n9wff First off, there is no problem. 1) You mean “Gnosticism?” OR “Agnostics?” Your headline narrative implies false assumptions. I’ll explain. Catholicism IS and WAS the only Christian Way of converting people, most of the bishops, priests and Christians (before 400 AD and BEFORE there was a Holy Bible of 73 books) were tortured AND killed (martyred) for the beliefs we Catholics still hold today and Protestants heretically reject, almost all 30K+ denominations, each as their own pope differently interpreting the scriptures. You should thank the Catholic church for defending the faith (1 Tim 3:15) who preserved and died for Christ and His one church. Irenaues of Lyons, Ignatius, Justin Martyr, and many others including Councils debated and considered these “Gnostics” heretics because many of their so-called “Special Knowledge” Was never taught by the apostles and these so-called hidden writings were somehow only given to them. Catholics fought these ideas. Bottom line, whether you meant Gnostics or Agnostics, Catholics were the only ones Evangelizing in Alexandria Egypt. Today, the Coptic Catholics are of the same spirit - belief unto death. Recently there were 21 Coptic Christians (Catholics) who were beheaded on a beach by Muslims. (In history, protestants hated Catholics so much, they sided with the muslims)… dont take my word for it, look it up. 2) Codex Sianiticus. Ahh yes, you must FIRST read church history BEFORE trying to call out the Catholics who were inspired by the Holy Spirit to recognize the 73 books of the bible we all enjoy today. And AFTER the 4 centuries of mortal persecutions to preserve Orthodox teachings when there was no new testament available to everyone and risked their lives to preserve and disseminate those writings to each under penalty of death. The bible is a Catholic book. A little church history below in case you were ignorant. I was like you, too and vehemently anti-Catholic UNTIL the Holy Spirit taught me these things, of which now I am sharing with you. 2a) In 367 AD, After Catholic Council of Nicaea, Bishop of Alexandria, Athanasius in his 39th (of 45 annual festal or Easter letters) recognized for the first time, 27 books of the New Testament 2b) In 382 AD, Pope Damasus for the first time decrees a single Holy Bible should be created. Thousands of manuscripts and Letters (remember, these all had to be Collected from everywhere) and adjudicated as either Accepted, Rejected, or “Uncertain.” The litmus test used was 3-fold: 2bi) Did an apostle or successor to apostle write these? 2bii) these writings ever read in the underground church in the previous 400 years?, and 2biii) Did the writings align with the Orthodox teachings passed down from apostle to apostle to apostle (Deacons, Bishops, and Elders)? If so, they were admitted as part of the 73 books of the canon. 3) The Old Testament was fairly easy to admit. All 46 books derived from the Greek Septuagint established by Jewish Greek Scribes in 250 BC decreed by King Ptolemy. All 72 scribes were separated by the King And when they finished, all 72 copies in the Library of Alexandria showed them to be nearly exactly the same. Talk about Holy Spirit Inspired. 3a) The Septuagint was the OT bible used by Paul and the apostles and in Acts 17:11 by the Bereans who all spoke Greek. 3b) The 4 Great Codices INCLUDING Codex Sianticus included those 7 Deuterocanon books which were removed from Protestant bibles in the 1880s by the British and Foreign Bible Society because it was too expensive to print AND these were converting Protestants to Catholics. THEN the Gideons widely disseminated these chopped up Protestant bibles in hotels, hospitals, schools, and prisons eluding to the historically ignorant, that Catholics added 7 books. That’s a recent lie in just past 100 years. 4) Finally, in 382, 397 & 416 at the Councils of Hippo and Cathage, respectively, the CATHOLIC CHURCH guided by the Holy Spirit determined the 73 books of the bible (46 OT and 27 NT). 4a) St Jerome, who spoke Hebrew, Aramaic, Greek, and Latin translated the deluge of manuscripts into one language, Latin, which was the Language of the world at the time (Greek before that and English in modern world today) into the FIRST Complete OT/NT Holy Bible, the Latin Vulgate. THEN, it was translated into the English called the Douay Rheims. 4b) The Codex Sianaticus was NOT discovered until the 19th century and therefore UNAVAILABLE to the Catholic church in the 4th Century when our Catholic monks (scribes) were painstakingly “handwriting” (no printing presses were available yet) The cost for just one complete bible then was equivalent to one full year’s salary today. They were EXPENSIVE but could have been more but the monks were not working for Money, they were working for God so they were almost free labor. So NO, we do not have a problem, Houston. We have church history facts demonstrating the infallible Bible is a Catholic book developed by the inspiration of the Holy Spirit through Christ’s one church that He established in Matthew 16:18. Today, modern Catholic and Protestant bibles rely on several sources, including the 4 Great Codices and the Dead Sea Scrolls. Bibles are translated into 3 major categories: 4ai) Word for Word 4aii) Idea for Idea 4aiii) Phrase for Phrase I hope this helps with some if your ignorance (and many other protestants - I was one of them for nearly 30 years until just a few years ago.) So pray about who has changed and who has always been the same. Who preserved the faith and continued Orthodox teachings in early history, even unto torture and death. It was Christ’s true and single church, the Catholic church 2,000+ years ago. Protestantism began in mid 1500s and only 500 years old. IF ITS TRUE, IT’S PROBABLY NOT NEW, IF ITS NEW, ITS PROBABLY NOT TRUE
I’ve come to realize that this is a fundamental teaching that we need to understand when talking to other religions about God. Without an understanding of where the Bible came from, we won’t be able to establish the Bible’s credibility.
Brainwashing by professionally trained Christian hustlers is so cool. Hebrew myths are the only ancient myths that are real? How educated are you, Stupid? Type Bible Criticism online and find out.
Sometimes I take this information for granted because we’ve heard it over and over, but I forget sometimes that there are new Christians being brought to Christ every day. The Living God is sovereign and beautiful.
All you critics, say what you will about him, but Dr. James White is RIGHT when he says that we MUST! LEARN! HOW! WE! GOT! OUR! BIBLES! _And then teach it to our children and grandchildren._
Yes, Rome gave you your bible. Arrius Piso and his family members wrote the entire NT plus Esther and Josephus. He called himself the ALPHA and OMEGA as his name starts with A for Alpha and ends with O for Omega. His relative, Flavius Titus, called himself the son of man.
@@itsdeefree you need to say that to the historical scholars who have researched this. And I'm talking *serious* historical scholars. Historians no longer spend much time discussing Abraham or Moses, on the grounds that they are clearly mythical. To give one example, K. L. Noll just says in Canaan and Israel in Antiquity: A Textbook on History and Religion, “Abraham and Moses are fictitious characters”. "I’ll start with what most historians believe regarding Moses, because if Moses did not exist and the Israelites were never sojourned in Egypt, the link is broken and Abraham, by default never really existed. After two hundred years of searching and never finding a scrap of evidence that the Israelite people fled from Egypt in a great biblical Exodus, nearly all historians now say the Exodus never occurred-Israelites were local Canaanite people and the Exodus story was just a foundation myth. There is no evidence for any of the events surrounding the purported Exodus from Egypt and therefore no evidence that the biblical Moses ever existed." Maybe you need to take off *your* tin foil hat and face some actual facts.
@@QuestionThingsUseLogicthe exodus can still be true without any “evidence”. if we had proof then that would mean for certain that it happened, if we don’t (besides the written text) then that does NOT mean it didn’t happen. it means that it could have, or couldn’t have and we have to look further to make that decision based on other things. there are many historical events that don’t have “evidence” of them happening but we believe them because they were written about
@@HearGodsWord trinity is the biggest deception. Christendom have influenced many killings of people who denied the trinity It's all about power and control over people They had jesus killed cause he spoke out against there traditions and hypocrisy in his day and it's still going on today in Christendom At one point in history it meant death to those who taught against the trinity Christendom is evil and works for satan . He has Christendom under his control It's all gonna be destroyed Jehovah is gonna destroy Babylon the great which represents world empire of false religion Hes giving us a warning to flee from it
@@HearGodsWord not sure about him “doing satans work” but he is definitely deceived as are so many. The many corrupt modern translation “bibles” are a huge part of the problem. It actually blows my mind that people don’t see a problem with almost 200 different versions of the Bible in English alone. Stick with The King James and you will have God’s preserved Bible.
lol, Dr. James White is a profound example of wasted energy in terms of Bible battle. He is a very miserable individual because he FAILED BIG TIME to annihilate KJV onlyism as he enthusiastically predicted it in his prime, full of vigor, and with a determined confidence. He lost the battle and his hair. KJV continues to thrive in the 21st century throughout the world, one proof that indeed it's the PURE, PRECISE, and PERFECT words of God. And all modern bibles are defective, deceitful, and fake bibles.
It was by apostolic Tradition that the Church discerned which writings were to be included in the list of the sacred books. This complete list is called the Canon of Scripture. It includes 46 books for the Old Testament and 27 for the New Testament.
There are no original "autographs", historical inaccuracies abound, translation inaccuracies are blatant (Greek from Hebrew), several books of the NT are forgeries, scribes changed various passages through the years and there are many "gospels" and Gnostic writings extant that were not included in the canon. I noticed Dr. White didn't discuss any of this nor did he discuss any writings prior to the 3rd century AD.
The reason I believe in the God of the Bible, the inerrancy of Scripture and that Jesus Christ is my Lord and Savior. We have a reliable collection of historical documents written by eyewitnesses during the lifetime of other eyewitnesses. They report super natural events that took place in fulfilment of specific prophecies and claim that their writings are via divine inspiration and not from men alone. The super natural events are important in that they show the divine nature of God. Jesus Christ cast out demons, healed the sick, blind, deaf, dumb and paralyzed, walked on water, fed thousands with little, and was resurrected all of which have eyewitness accounts. The feedings alone were witnessed by the thousands He fed on the two separate occasions that we are told of in the Gospels. John tells us that there were many more miracles than what are recorded in the Bible/Gospels and that it would have filled volumes of books upon books were he to have written them all down and that it would have taken more than one lifetime to do so. The claim that men wrote the Bible so it can not be true means that no other book ever written should be believed, no matter the topic as they're all written by man. The Bible is not just a book it is a collection of books written over a period of thousands of years of which all those books are linked together by One Divine Author. In this collection of books there are over 40 authors but only one Devine Author who links them all together via the Holy Spirit. Those authors wrote down His inspired Word given to them by God. 66 Volumes/Books in the Bible. The bulk of the New Testament was written over a period of around 50 years. It was in 49 AD to 53 AD when the Scripture writings of the New Testament are thought to have begun. With the last living Apostle John dying in 100 AD. Over a period of around 1500 years it was preserved and passed on: In 3 Languages On 3 Continents There are 66,360+ source documents that have been found for the entire Bible of which there are 24,360 and counting source documents for the New Testament alone. 5,839 in the original Greek, some 2 million pages 18,524 translations of that Greek into other languages Some of the oldest sources date to 125AD which is within decades of the completion of all the books that were canonized as the New Testament. The New Testament cannon, (Gospels of the Apostles/writings, Epistles/letters to the early Churches, all sources and eyewitness accounts that were to be included), was decided at the Synod of Carthage in 397 AD. Those asking for "Scientific Proof" about the Bible are either ignorant or asking with evil intent. An intelligent person knows that the scientific method can not be applied to verify the Bible. Scientific Method is: 1) Has to be observable. 2) Has to be measurable. 3) Has to be repeatable. Therefore no history can ever be proven via scientific method. You must use the historical method based on: Eyewitnesses accounts. Documents from the time or as close as possible. Make sure the story is corroborated by as many sources as possible. Look for anyone/anything that attempted to prove any of it false in that time period or as close to it as possible. Did anyone successfully prove any of it untrue? If they had/have why is there no record found anywhere of it ever being disproven? Luke = Historian A man of science, a physician, an educated and logical man who researched and gathered the accounts of eyewitnesses. He recorded the actual eyewitness accounts of our Lord and Savior, those who had heard Him speak and were present/saw the signs/miracles He performed. He did this because the life of those eyewitnesses were coming to an end due to age and he was inspired to write them down via the Holy Spirit before they could be lost or perverted by time. John = Evangelist John is organized around 7 specific events/signs/miracles all seen by eyewitnesses and corroborated by many. So he also provides proof of accuracy/truth. Mark = The shortest of the Gospels and is very direct or "Just the Facts" if you like. Mathew = Was written to the Jewish audience and that's one of the reasons for the extensive genealogy of Christ. There are also more references to the Old Testament in his gospel compared to the others.
Peter = He lays out all the proof for the Bible and it's accuracy in 1 Peter Chapter 1. He makes the arguments that justify it all as truly what happened and that it all happened as recorded in the Gospels, the entire Bible. All of the Apostles were eyewitnesses of Jesus and/or of the resurrected Christ. Including Paul whom Jesus came to as he was on the road traveling to Damascus to persecute more Christians. This would have been the resurrected Christ or a form of Him that came from Heaven. There were at least 300 eyewitnesses still alive when Corinthians was written who could have disputed it but no one did. Mathias became the 12th Apostles after Judas hung himself so the argument of there not being 12 Apostles comes from ignorance or evil intent. There have been over 25,000 archeological digs in which there has been absolutely no evidence found that proves anything in the entire Bible false but in those digs many things have been found that prove it true. Other cultures and non believer's historical documents show or corroborate people, places, wars and many things that are in the Bible. Yet none of them prove any of it to be false but they do strengthen it. Word for Word Translations prove just how accurate what we have is when you consider there's no way anyone could have falsified any of it, be it via intent or mistakes. Many church fathers in history have made extensive notes that include scripture throughout the centuries and no matter the time or place all those references to scripture corroborate each other. Which shows just how accurate translations have been throughout time and still are as long as they maintain a word for word ideology during the translation. To falsify any of it they would have to change every single source, do it in three languages, on three continents, over a span of thousands of years, with no one catching any of it, no one ever talking about what they'd done, leaving behind no traces that they'd done it. Not to mention they'd have to steal all of those sources to change them, changing them would be a massive undertaking considering they were hand written in those times and then put them back without ever being seen or caught during the entire process. My last statement is this: Simply put the Bible can defend itself like a lion just let it loose. (Use Scripture to defend Scripture because it is a collection of eyewitness accounts that has been proven true again and again). There's a very good movie titled "The God Who Speaks" that covers much of what I've said above. If you still have doubt I would recommend you watch it and even if you don't because it was very well made and presented. Take care and God Bless.
@@everythingdefensivecarry1108 Umm No, the Cannon was ratified in Carthage 397 AD. So according to that council and church fathers there are only 66 books included in the Bible. They reached that determination after years of debate. The reason the "lost books" weren't included in the cannon was due to there being to hard to prove, to many variations existing that were supposed to be authentic, authorship, or divine inspiration ie far to many errors in them to be inspired by the Holy Spirit. Look into church history and you will find the details of what I'm letting you know. Take care and God Bless.
May God Bless Dr. White. My prayer is to get an ESV Study Bible. Please join me in prayer for it. -Blessings from Tajji in Tanzania (Christian missionary)
@@JoseSalloum Sister Tajji, please don't listen to these people. They like to spread lies to promote their propaganda of King James Onlyism. They believe the King James is the only authorized version that should be considered the word of God. This is laughable false, and there are many debates online that show this plainly. I made the switch from NKJV to ESV a few years back and haven't looked back since. Still love the KJV and NKJV for it's beauty of language, but accuracy to the original is a wholly different story. Don't let people like this confuse you. God bless!
You must know that God our Father and our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ, the Lord of Lords and King of Kings, that although He hates the sin, He loves the sinner.

I have so much respect and appreciation for Dr White. I have heard his debates in the past on doctrine of election and he was very well versed in. Now I have seen him in debates regarding Dead Sea scroll artifacts. Recently I started seeing UA-cam videos questioning Dead Sea scroll’s authenticity, did Jesus really exist, the true meaning of Yahweh, etc. I’m into apologetics and well grounded in my faith and these scholars have shaken me a little and I frantically prayed and searched asking the Lord to show me the truth and give me clarity to understand the holes in what I was hearing. I want to be able to explain this to my family who have been infested by all the so called scholars sowing doubt. Thank you Dr James White! I will re-listen to this and other resources.
It's not juat how versed he is that amazes me, its how he is wel articulated and has sense of humour too...I'm glad God gave the world people like Dr. White.
Thank you Dr White. You confirmed a lot of what I had to piece together by myself. I pastored for years and told most of this great story so folks could know this marvelous gift. And I would ask you about those two scholars that my Greeknteacher liked. Wescott and Hort. Thanks be to God for them and thr Alands of Germany. Carry on . Tom Russell.

@@Juno_Beachabsolutely not. You may have your faulty opinions about the righteousness of the Catholics or the Protestant Deformers, but it’s plainly historical and silly to deny that the Catholic Church compiled Sacred Scripture and defined the canon.

I didn't necessarily leave islam to be Christian, i started believing in evolution theory...but that in between phase was terrible because I had so many questions... And this guys put ot so plainly to someone like me who had all this nonsensical arguments, having come from islam. 🎉 I am so grateful for your work Dr White. Thank you.
What is amazing is seeing God's Sovereignty displayed in His selecting men to preserve His Word in spite of the hardships visited upon them by a vicious papacy determined to retain their power against the truth of the Gospel message.
Lol. You can thank the Catholic Church for compiling the canon of Scripture under the guidance of the Holy Ghost. If not for His Church, you wouldn’t have the Bible at all, even the butchered translations of heresiarchs.
@pio5119 I think you meant to say “butchered heresiarchs” You know the ones that were dismembered and butchered on racks; the ones who had the Iron Maiden enclosed upon them; the ones written about in Fox’s Book of Martyrs and Martyrs Mirror. Some day you will get to meet them and you’ll see your whorish Mother’s dogma was not about truth but Satanic world domination. By the way, if the Lord has a bride, who is chaste and afflicted while sojourning in this world while being faithful to Him who gave Himself for her, who per say would be Satan’s bride? She who holds the cup and bag?
Yeah, we take the Word of God for granite. I had to say thank you Lord for the freedom I have to read the Word when and where I want. God is Holy and Gracious to us All!
brilliant presentation James. God bless you. I agree with you totally >>> we are headed into some really dark times filled with lots of lost people who have been deceived and it's happening very very quickly. But thanks be to God for He is the one who keeps us and keeps His Word.
That was so interesting. I have always been curious about the legacy of our God’s Word and I agree we all need to know how to answer the skeptics. A great point James White made was referring to Homer and the Iliad and the length of time between the first replication. Great to watch! May God forgive us all for taking Him out of the USA and take his judgement off of us before it does get very dark for us. Pray Pray Pray❤❤❤
My favorite historians to listen to are James White and Robert Godfrey (Ligonier, Westminster Escondido). They both love to tell the story of the past and do a good job of keeping the listener engaged.
I want to thank James White for making me a stronger Catholic Christian, as he places his own fallible interpretations above Holy Scripture, the same Scripture that came way after The Church authority was already established! Did Christians in the early Church reading Paul's letter to the Church of Laodicea, know it was not Holy Scripture? Why did many early Church Fathers disagree with each other on what books were to be included in the new testament? Peace always in Jesus Christ our Great and Kind God and Savior, He whose Flesh is true food and Blood true drink
@countryboyred James White made me a stronger Catholic by him preaching another Gospel. The Gospel of James White, is not found in Holy Scripture, or the Church authority that existed way before the new testament was ever written! Peace always in Jesus Christ our Great and Kind God and Savior, He whose Flesh is true food and Blood true drink!!
@countryboyred it's true though! Holy Scripture teaches we must cooperate with God's saving grace and repent and bear fruit and forgive others and love one another and keep the commandments and persevere to the end to be saved! James White says none of this is True! Plus, Jesus Christ teaches the bread, WHEN BLESSED, "is My Body " James White says, "no it isn't!:. I agree, this is insane, this is crazy man! Peace always in Jesus Christ our Great and Kind God and Savior, He whose Flesh is true food and Blood true drink!

The super natural events are important in that they show the divine nature of God. Jesus Christ cast out demons, healed the sick, blind, deaf, dumb and paralyzed, walked on water, fed thousands with little, and was resurrected all of which have eyewitness accounts. The feedings alone were witnessed by the thousands He fed on the two separate occasions that we are told of in the Gospels. John tells us that there were many more miracles than what are recorded in the Bible/Gospels and that it would have filled volumes of books upon books were he to have written them all down and that it would have taken more than one lifetime to do so. The claim that men wrote the Bible so it can not be true means that no other book ever written should be believed, no matter the topic as they're all written by man. The Bible is not just a book it is a collection of books written over a period of thousands of years of which all those books are linked together by One Divine Author. In this collection of books there are over 40 authors but only one Devine Author who links them all together via the Holy Spirit. Those authors wrote down His inspired Word given to them by God. 66 Volumes/Books in the Bible. The bulk of the New Testament was written over a period of around 50 years. It was in 49 AD to 53 AD when the Scripture writings of the New Testament are thought to have begun. With the last living Apostle John dying in 100 AD. Over a period of around 1500 years it was preserved and passed on: In 3 Languages On 3 Continents There are 66,360+ source documents that have been found for the entire Bible of which there are 24,360 and counting source documents for the New Testament alone. 5,839 in the original Greek, some 2 million pages 18,524 translations of that Greek into other languages Some of the oldest sources date to 125AD which is within decades of the completion of all the books that were canonized as the New Testament. The New Testament cannon, (Gospels of the Apostles/writings, Epistles/letters to the early Churches, all sources and eyewitness accounts that were to be included), was decided at the Synod of Carthage in 397 AD. Those asking for "Scientific Proof" about the Bible are either ignorant or asking with evil intent. An intelligent person knows that the scientific method can not be applied to verify the Bible. Scientific Method is: 1) Has to be observable. 2) Has to be measurable. 3) Has to be repeatable. Therefore no history can ever be proven via scientific method. You must use the historical method based on: Eyewitnesses accounts. Documents from the time or as close as possible. Make sure the story is corroborated by as many sources as possible. Look for anyone/anything that attempted to prove any of it false in that time period or as close to it as possible. Did anyone successfully prove any of it untrue? If they had/have why is there no record found anywhere of it ever being disproven? Luke = Historian A man of science, a physician, an educated and logical man who researched and gathered the accounts of eyewitnesses. He recorded the actual eyewitness accounts of our Lord and Savior, those who had heard Him speak and were present/saw the signs/miracles He performed. He did this because the life of those eyewitnesses were coming to an end due to age and he was inspired to write them down via the Holy Spirit before they could be lost or perverted by time. John = Evangelist John is organized around 7 specific events/signs/miracles all seen by eyewitnesses and corroborated by many. So he also provides proof of accuracy/truth. Mark = The shortest of the Gospels and is very direct or "Just the Facts" if you like. Mathew = Was written to the Jewish audience and that's one of the reasons for the extensive genealogy of Christ. There are also more references to the Old Testament in his gospel compared to the others.
Peter = He lays out all the proof for the Bible and it's accuracy in 1 Peter Chapter 1. He makes the arguments that justify it all as truly what happened and that it all happened as recorded in the Gospels, the entire Bible. All of the Apostles were eyewitnesses of Jesus and/or of the resurrected Christ. Including Paul whom Jesus came to as he was on the road traveling to Damascus to persecute more Christians. This would have been the resurrected Christ or a form of Him that came from Heaven. There were at least 300 eyewitnesses still alive when Corinthians was written who could have disputed it but no one did. Mathias became the 12th Apostles after Judas hung himself so the argument of there not being 12 Apostles comes from ignorance or evil intent. There have been over 25,000 archeological digs in which there has been absolutely no evidence found that proves anything in the entire Bible false but in those digs many things have been found that prove it true. Other cultures and non believer's historical documents show or corroborate people, places, wars and many things that are in the Bible. Yet none of them prove any of it to be false but they do strengthen it. Word for Word Translations prove just how accurate what we have is when you consider there's no way anyone could have falsified any of it, be it via intent or mistakes. Many church fathers in history have made extensive notes that include scripture throughout the centuries and no matter the time or place all those references to scripture corroborate each other. Which shows just how accurate translations have been throughout time and still are as long as they maintain a word for word ideology during the translation. To falsify any of it they would have to change every single source, do it in three languages, on three continents, over a span of thousands of years, with no one catching any of it, no one ever talking about what they'd done, leaving behind no traces that they'd done it. Not to mention they'd have to steal all of those sources to change them, changing them would be a massive undertaking considering they were hand written in those times and then put them back without ever being seen or caught during the entire process. My last statement is this: Simply put the Bible can defend itself like a lion just let it loose. (Use Scripture to defend Scripture because it is a collection of eyewitness accounts that has been proven true again and again). There's a very good movie titled "The God Who Speaks" that covers much of what I've said above. If you still have doubt I would recommend you watch it and even if you don't because it was very well made and presented. Take care and God Bless.
Does he have a book on this subject? I think it will be tremendously helpful if he publishes a book on this subject so that we can have all this information in one place
Did he talk about how the canon of Scripture was created? Who said what books are inspired and which ones dont belong in the bible? I feel like thats an important point. Did I miss it?
You must know that God our Father and our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ, the Lord of Lords and King of Kings, that although He hates the sin, He loves the sinner.

*recognized* not determined. The RCC, nor any church, has the authority to give authority to Christ. It was recognized as Scripture by Clement. Meaning it's authority predates any council.
Due to the give i recieved in 1999, upon 40 days and nights of true fasting and prayer.... I have 4 words for this...Man. They are in sequence in 1 John 3:10 kjv. They are the first 4 words after the word "and".
You'd think he would have mentioned how got our bible back when it was compiled in the 4th century. Maybe someday he'll do a vidio on "How We Got Our Bible." That will be much more interesting.
Apparently both Augustine and Eusibius said that the N.T. was put together by the end of the 1st century. The book of Acts says that the Word of the Lord was published during that time. It does add up that we would have to wait 300 years until the Bible as a whole would be available.
The Catholic Church was authority that declared the canon of scripture. The canon was debated until the end of the 4th century and the first writing that had the whole canon as we know it today is from the early 4th century.

Thank you! Catholic Church for compiling the Holy Bible. Bi means Two Ble comes from the word assemlbe... Two books assembled. The old Testatent and the New Testament compiled together....
Read She Rides the Beast by Dave Hunt. Great book that is sourced by the RCC itself exposing its own lies. You were given a myth and the RCC knows the truth except its members.
@@sunnydays8270 I wasn’t given anything, by the grace of God I read my way into the Church. I discovered that all the doctrines of the Church are found among the Early Church and the Fathers; all of Scripture points to Catholic doctrine and ecclesiology. The false version of Christianity full of lies is what I assume is your own: Protestant? There is only one Church established by Christ Himself, and Protestantism pridefully split from that Body. Protestant doctrines are found nowhere in the Early Church, and can only be found in Scripture by doing violence to the text and misinterpreting it.
@@kaiingmire3618 I’m not sure if your comment was directed to myself, however I don’t believe you understand my comment the way I intended. James White, who’s very intelligent, does bring up some extremely good and important points; worthy of further study. I do indeed marvel in his analysis of history at times, like this one, yet disagree strongly in his conclusions regarding theology. I pray this clarifies my statement further. Thank you for your time.

Imagine knowing what this guy knows. Take a minute to understand what he knows… at any minute, this guy is down to debate the very nuances of biblical history, theology and biblical print history. That’s actually incredible.
He is a narcissist, a Calvinist, and a poor debater in general. He is a "Church of me" guy in direct defiance of the Bible. He also does a lot of misleading in this talk and he knows it.
@@cjr4497 That is a big claim. What do you have to back that up? If you're going to go to the trouble of responding to my comment, surely you have some videos or previous experiences to share?
JW can claim this all he wants. At the end of the day there is one infallible voice for binding matters to the church and it isn’t him. JW deceives us and needs to resign his “job”. We all whether we like it or not, assume the Church Hierarchy gave us the canon, and if you don’t, you immediately imply that another watered down hierarchy did it

Were you paying attention at all? There can be no very word of God under this system.
men's words... haha
The Catholic Church preserved the word of god that’s a fact Luther took out 7 books and changed doctrine so if you are a denominations you can be certain you haven’t got the preserved word of god based on a truth of reality.
@JosephBelloo Thanks for your opinion now I will give you truth Jesus Christ gave his authority to peter to build his church the bible was put together by the Catholic Church in the 3rd century Christianity didn’t change till the 16th century when a Catholic priest Martin Luther stripped down the bible and created traditions of men(denominations) the rapture is a false 19th century doctrine not based on scripture and divided even amongst the denominations.If you want to follow and understand Christ join his church the one,holy,apostolic Catholic Church
@JosephBelloo Just checked them out sounds interesting but the truth is you broke from Christ’s authoritive church and judging by you saying rapture your making up your own interpretation that tells me your faith is just another denomination outside the Catholic Church
I am so grateful for all the faithful men who have gone before and for those to come. Thank you Lord!

To the one reading this, remember that in every circumstance, God is your constant companion. He leads your way, stands by your side, and watches over you. Take confidence in the knowledge that God is present in your life. Amen 🙏💖🌟
Thank God to all of the Catholic and Orthodox monks who painstakingly copied The Holy Bible by hand for 1,400 years so that we could read it today.
The ones who hid the Bible from the world and burned anyone at the stake who translated it to their own language?
Which manuscripts?
All of them
@@o.o.2255
The Catholics were in Alexandria, Egypt, where agnosticism reigned?
Did they transcribe the Codex Sinaiticus, which disagreed with the Codex Vaticanus no less than 8000 times?
As NASA might hear:
Houston, we have a problem.
@@n9wff First off, there is no problem.
1) You mean “Gnosticism?” OR “Agnostics?” Your headline narrative implies false assumptions. I’ll explain.
Catholicism IS and WAS the only Christian Way of converting people, most of the bishops, priests and Christians (before 400 AD and BEFORE there was a Holy Bible of 73 books) were tortured AND killed (martyred) for the beliefs we Catholics still hold today and Protestants heretically reject, almost all 30K+ denominations, each as their own pope differently interpreting the scriptures.
You should thank the Catholic church for defending the faith (1 Tim 3:15) who preserved and died for Christ and His one church. Irenaues of Lyons, Ignatius, Justin Martyr, and many others including Councils debated and considered these “Gnostics” heretics because many of their so-called “Special Knowledge”
Was never taught by the apostles and these so-called hidden writings were somehow only given to them. Catholics fought these ideas. Bottom line, whether you meant Gnostics or Agnostics, Catholics were the only ones Evangelizing in Alexandria Egypt. Today, the Coptic Catholics are of the same spirit - belief unto death. Recently there were 21 Coptic Christians (Catholics) who were beheaded on a beach by Muslims. (In history, protestants hated Catholics so much, they sided with the muslims)… dont take my word for it, look it up.
2) Codex Sianiticus. Ahh yes, you must FIRST read church history
BEFORE trying to call out the Catholics who were inspired by the Holy Spirit to recognize the 73 books of the bible we all enjoy today. And AFTER the 4 centuries of mortal persecutions to preserve Orthodox teachings when there was no new testament available to everyone and risked their lives to preserve and disseminate those writings to each under penalty of death.
The bible is a Catholic book.
A little church history below in case you were ignorant. I was like you, too and vehemently anti-Catholic UNTIL the Holy Spirit taught me these things, of which now I am sharing with you.
2a) In 367 AD, After Catholic Council of Nicaea, Bishop of Alexandria, Athanasius in his 39th (of 45 annual festal or Easter letters) recognized for the first time, 27 books of the New Testament
2b) In 382 AD, Pope Damasus for the first time decrees a single Holy Bible should be created. Thousands of manuscripts and Letters (remember, these all had to be Collected from everywhere) and adjudicated as either Accepted, Rejected, or “Uncertain.”
The litmus test used was 3-fold:
2bi) Did an apostle or successor to apostle write these?
2bii) these writings ever read in the underground church in the previous 400 years?, and
2biii) Did the writings align with the Orthodox teachings passed down from apostle to apostle to apostle (Deacons, Bishops, and Elders)?
If so, they were admitted as part of the 73 books of the canon.
3) The Old Testament was fairly easy to admit. All 46 books derived from the Greek Septuagint established by Jewish Greek Scribes in 250 BC decreed by King Ptolemy. All 72 scribes were separated by the King
And when they finished, all 72 copies in the Library of Alexandria showed them to be nearly exactly the same. Talk about Holy Spirit Inspired.
3a) The Septuagint was the OT bible used by Paul and the apostles and in Acts 17:11 by the Bereans who all spoke Greek.
3b) The 4 Great Codices INCLUDING Codex Sianticus included those 7 Deuterocanon books which were removed from Protestant bibles in the 1880s by the British and Foreign Bible Society because it was too expensive to print AND these were converting Protestants to Catholics.
THEN the Gideons widely disseminated these chopped up
Protestant bibles in hotels, hospitals, schools, and prisons eluding to the historically ignorant, that Catholics added 7 books. That’s a recent lie in just past 100 years.
4) Finally, in 382, 397 & 416 at the Councils of Hippo and Cathage, respectively, the CATHOLIC CHURCH guided by the Holy Spirit determined the 73 books of the bible (46 OT and 27 NT).
4a) St Jerome, who spoke Hebrew, Aramaic, Greek, and Latin translated the deluge of manuscripts into one language, Latin, which was the Language of the world at the time (Greek before that and English in modern world today) into the FIRST Complete OT/NT Holy Bible, the Latin Vulgate. THEN, it was translated into the English called the Douay Rheims.
4b) The Codex Sianaticus was NOT discovered until the 19th century and therefore UNAVAILABLE to the Catholic church in the 4th Century when our Catholic monks (scribes) were painstakingly “handwriting” (no printing presses were available yet) The cost for just one complete bible then was equivalent to one full year’s salary today. They were EXPENSIVE but could have been more but the monks were not working for Money, they were working for God so they were almost free labor.
So NO, we do not have a problem, Houston. We have church history facts demonstrating the infallible Bible is a Catholic book developed by the inspiration of the Holy Spirit through Christ’s one church that He established in Matthew 16:18.
Today, modern Catholic and Protestant bibles rely on several sources, including the 4 Great Codices and the Dead Sea Scrolls. Bibles are translated into 3 major categories:
4ai) Word for Word
4aii) Idea for Idea
4aiii) Phrase for Phrase
I hope this helps with some if your ignorance (and many other protestants - I was one of them for nearly 30 years until just a few years
ago.)
So pray about who has changed and who has always been the same. Who preserved the faith and continued Orthodox teachings in early history, even unto torture and death. It was Christ’s true and single church, the Catholic church 2,000+ years ago. Protestantism began in mid 1500s and only 500 years old.
IF ITS TRUE, IT’S PROBABLY NOT NEW,
IF ITS NEW, ITS PROBABLY NOT TRUE
I’ve come to realize that this is a fundamental teaching that we need to understand when talking to other religions about God. Without an understanding of where the Bible came from, we won’t be able to establish the Bible’s credibility.
I really like James white. Going to be spending a lot of hours listening to hin!
Brainwashing by professionally trained Christian hustlers is so cool. Hebrew myths are the only ancient myths that are real? How educated are you, Stupid? Type Bible Criticism online and find out.
This has been at least an eye opening teaching. Thanks God for people like Dr. White.
Sometimes I take this information for granted because we’ve heard it over and over, but I forget sometimes that there are new Christians being brought to Christ every day. The Living God is sovereign and beautiful.
All you critics, say what you will about him, but Dr. James White is RIGHT when he says that we MUST! LEARN! HOW! WE! GOT! OUR! BIBLES! _And then teach it to our children and grandchildren._
Yes, Rome gave you your bible. Arrius Piso and his family members wrote the entire NT plus Esther and Josephus. He called himself the ALPHA and OMEGA as his name starts with A for Alpha and ends with O for Omega. His relative, Flavius Titus, called himself the son of man.
@@QuestionThingsUseLogic bro you need to take off your tin foil hat. Thats not even close to true lmao
@@itsdeefree you need to say that to the historical scholars who have researched this. And I'm talking *serious* historical scholars. Historians no longer spend much time discussing Abraham or Moses, on the grounds that they are clearly mythical. To give one example, K. L. Noll just says in Canaan and Israel in Antiquity: A Textbook on History and Religion, “Abraham and Moses are fictitious characters”.
"I’ll start with what most historians believe regarding Moses, because if Moses did not exist and the Israelites were never sojourned in Egypt, the link is broken and Abraham, by default never really existed. After two hundred years of searching and never finding a scrap of evidence that the Israelite people fled from Egypt in a great biblical Exodus, nearly all historians now say the Exodus never occurred-Israelites were local Canaanite people and the Exodus story was just a foundation myth. There is no evidence for any of the events surrounding the purported Exodus from Egypt and therefore no evidence that the biblical Moses ever existed." Maybe you need to take off *your* tin foil hat and face some actual facts.
Got mine from God...😊
@@QuestionThingsUseLogicthe exodus can still be true without any “evidence”. if we had proof then that would mean for certain that it happened, if we don’t (besides the written text) then that does NOT mean it didn’t happen. it means that it could have, or couldn’t have and we have to look further to make that decision based on other things. there are many historical events that don’t have “evidence” of them happening but we believe them because they were written about
Thank God we have James White.
He does satans work not Gods work
@@AstariahJW easy to accuse without proof I suppose. Pretty sure the Bible is against such actions.
@@HearGodsWord trinity is the biggest deception. Christendom have influenced many killings of people who denied the trinity
It's all about power and control over people
They had jesus killed cause he spoke out against there traditions and hypocrisy in his day and it's still going on today in Christendom
At one point in history it meant death to those who taught against the trinity
Christendom is evil and works for satan . He has Christendom under his control
It's all gonna be destroyed
Jehovah is gonna destroy Babylon the great which represents world empire of false religion
Hes giving us a warning to flee from it

@@HearGodsWord not sure about him “doing satans work” but he is definitely deceived as are so many. The many corrupt modern translation “bibles” are a huge part of the problem. It actually blows my mind that people don’t see a problem with almost 200 different versions of the Bible in English alone. Stick with The King James and you will have God’s preserved Bible.
God bless Dr James White
What a legend. I predict James will go down as a giant of the faith.
lol, Dr. James White is a profound example of wasted energy in terms of Bible battle.
He is a very miserable individual because he FAILED BIG TIME to annihilate KJV onlyism as he enthusiastically predicted it in his prime, full of vigor, and with a determined confidence. He lost the battle and his hair.
KJV continues to thrive in the 21st century throughout the world, one proof that indeed it's the PURE, PRECISE, and PERFECT words of God. And all modern bibles are defective, deceitful, and fake bibles.

😊🙋♂Blessings!
It was by apostolic Tradition that the Church discerned which writings were to be included in the list of the sacred books. This complete list is called the Canon of Scripture. It includes 46 books for the Old Testament and 27 for the New Testament.
There are no original "autographs", historical inaccuracies abound, translation inaccuracies are blatant (Greek from Hebrew), several books of the NT are forgeries, scribes changed various passages through the years and there are many "gospels" and Gnostic writings extant that were not included in the canon. I noticed Dr. White didn't discuss any of this nor did he discuss any writings prior to the 3rd century AD.
The reason I believe in the God of the Bible, the inerrancy of Scripture and that Jesus Christ is my Lord and Savior.
We have a reliable collection of historical documents written by eyewitnesses during the lifetime of other eyewitnesses. They report super natural events that took place in fulfilment of specific prophecies and claim that their writings are via divine inspiration and not from men alone.
The super natural events are important in that they show the divine nature of God.
Jesus Christ cast out demons, healed the sick, blind, deaf, dumb and paralyzed, walked on water, fed thousands with little, and was resurrected all of which have eyewitness accounts.
The feedings alone were witnessed by the thousands He fed on the two separate occasions that we are told of in the Gospels.
John tells us that there were many more miracles than what are recorded in the Bible/Gospels and that it would have filled volumes of books upon books were he to have written them all down and that it would have taken more than one lifetime to do so.
The claim that men wrote the Bible so it can not be true means that no other book ever written should be believed, no matter the topic as they're all written by man.
The Bible is not just a book it is a collection of books written over a period of thousands of years of which all those books are linked together by One Divine Author. In this collection of books there are over 40 authors but only one Devine Author who links them all together via the Holy Spirit. Those authors wrote down His inspired Word given to them by God.
66 Volumes/Books in the Bible.
The bulk of the New Testament was written over a period of around 50 years. It was in 49 AD to 53 AD when the Scripture writings of the New Testament are thought to have begun. With the last living Apostle John dying in 100 AD.
Over a period of around 1500 years it was preserved and passed on:
In 3 Languages
On 3 Continents
There are 66,360+ source documents that have been found for the entire Bible of which there are 24,360 and counting source documents for the New Testament alone.
5,839 in the original Greek, some 2 million pages
18,524 translations of that Greek into other languages
Some of the oldest sources date to 125AD which is within decades of the completion of all the books that were canonized as the New Testament.
The New Testament cannon, (Gospels of the Apostles/writings, Epistles/letters to the early Churches, all sources and eyewitness accounts that were to be included), was decided at the Synod of Carthage in 397 AD.
Those asking for "Scientific Proof" about the Bible are either ignorant or asking with evil intent. An intelligent person knows that the scientific method can not be applied to verify the Bible.
Scientific Method is:
1) Has to be observable.
2) Has to be measurable.
3) Has to be repeatable.
Therefore no history can ever be proven via scientific method.
You must use the historical method based on:
Eyewitnesses accounts.
Documents from the time or as close as possible.
Make sure the story is corroborated by as many sources as possible.
Look for anyone/anything that attempted to prove any of it false in that time period or as close to it as possible.
Did anyone successfully prove any of it untrue?
If they had/have why is there no record found anywhere of it ever being disproven?
Luke = Historian
A man of science, a physician, an educated and logical man who researched and gathered the accounts of eyewitnesses. He recorded the actual eyewitness accounts of our Lord and Savior, those who had heard Him speak and were present/saw the signs/miracles He performed. He did this because the life of those eyewitnesses were coming to an end due to age and he was inspired to write them down via the Holy Spirit before they could be lost or perverted by time.
John = Evangelist
John is organized around 7 specific events/signs/miracles all seen by eyewitnesses and corroborated by many. So he also provides proof of accuracy/truth.
Mark = The shortest of the Gospels and is very direct or "Just the Facts" if you like.
Mathew = Was written to the Jewish audience and that's one of the reasons for the extensive genealogy of Christ. There are also more references to the Old Testament in his gospel compared to the others.
Peter = He lays out all the proof for the Bible and it's accuracy in 1 Peter Chapter 1. He makes the arguments that justify it all as truly what happened and that it all happened as recorded in the Gospels, the entire Bible.
All of the Apostles were eyewitnesses of Jesus and/or of the resurrected Christ. Including Paul whom Jesus came to as he was on the road traveling to Damascus to persecute more Christians. This would have been the resurrected Christ or a form of Him that came from Heaven.
There were at least 300 eyewitnesses still alive when Corinthians was written who could have disputed it but no one did.
Mathias became the 12th Apostles after Judas hung himself so the argument of there not being 12 Apostles comes from ignorance or evil intent.
There have been over 25,000 archeological digs in which there has been absolutely no evidence found that proves anything in the entire Bible false but in those digs many things have been found that prove it true.
Other cultures and non believer's historical documents show or corroborate people, places, wars and many things that are in the Bible. Yet none of them prove any of it to be false but they do strengthen it.
Word for Word Translations prove just how accurate what we have is when you consider there's no way anyone could have falsified any of it, be it via intent or mistakes.
Many church fathers in history have made extensive notes that include scripture throughout the centuries and no matter the time or place all those references to scripture corroborate each other. Which shows just how accurate translations have been throughout time and still are as long as they maintain a word for word ideology during the translation.
To falsify any of it they would have to change every single source, do it in three languages, on three continents, over a span of thousands of years, with no one catching any of it, no one ever talking about what they'd done, leaving behind no traces that they'd done it.
Not to mention they'd have to steal all of those sources to change them, changing them would be a massive undertaking considering they were hand written in those times and then put them back without ever being seen or caught during the entire process.
My last statement is this:
Simply put the Bible can defend itself like a lion just let it loose.
(Use Scripture to defend Scripture because it is a collection of eyewitness accounts that has been proven true again and again).
There's a very good movie titled "The God Who Speaks" that covers much of what I've said above. If you still have doubt I would recommend you watch it and even if you don't because it was very well made and presented.
Take care and God Bless.
Yeah I wonder who it was who was copying the texts throughout the first 3 centuries. It wasn’t Protestants
Actually it’s 81 total books.
@@everythingdefensivecarry1108 Umm No, the Cannon was ratified in Carthage 397 AD. So according to that council and church fathers there are only 66 books included in the Bible. They reached that determination after years of debate. The reason the "lost books" weren't included in the cannon was due to there being to hard to prove, to many variations existing that were supposed to be authentic, authorship, or divine inspiration ie far to many errors in them to be inspired by the Holy Spirit. Look into church history and you will find the details of what I'm letting you know. Take care and God Bless.
I enjoy listening to James in relaxed mode. 😏
Just a jab, he’s been faithful and I respect that so much. Dr James or Mr White. 👍
May God Bless Dr. White. My prayer is to get an ESV Study Bible. Please join me in prayer for it. -Blessings from Tajji in Tanzania (Christian missionary)
Praying
The ESV makes the LORD Jesus a lair check John 7: 8-10, check Col 1:14 there is no blood. God bless you, sister.
@@JoseSalloum Sister Tajji, please don't listen to these people. They like to spread lies to promote their propaganda of King James Onlyism. They believe the King James is the only authorized version that should be considered the word of God. This is laughable false, and there are many debates online that show this plainly. I made the switch from NKJV to ESV a few years back and haven't looked back since. Still love the KJV and NKJV for it's beauty of language, but accuracy to the original is a wholly different story. Don't let people like this confuse you. God bless!
Get the Authorized Version (KJV).
You must know that God our Father and our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ, the Lord of Lords and King of Kings, that although He hates the sin, He loves the sinner. If they will just come to Him and repent in their heart of hearts of all their sins, and proclaim Him as their Savior, their Lord, the Son of GOD.

I have so much respect and appreciation for Dr White. I have heard his debates in the past on doctrine of election and he was very well versed in. Now I have seen him in debates regarding Dead Sea scroll artifacts.
Recently I started seeing UA-cam videos questioning Dead Sea scroll’s authenticity, did Jesus really exist, the true meaning of Yahweh, etc. I’m into apologetics and well grounded in my faith and these scholars have shaken me a little and I frantically prayed and searched asking the Lord to show me the truth and give me clarity to understand the holes in what I was hearing. I want to be able to explain this to my family who have been infested by all the so called scholars sowing doubt. Thank you Dr James White! I will re-listen to this and other resources.
I'm truly sorry to hear that.

Itching ears.
What is amazing is seeing God's Sovereignty displayed in His selecting men to preserve His Word in spite of the hardships visited upon them by a vicious papacy determined to retain their power against the truth of the Gospel message.
The papacy is from Christ. Those men rebelled against God
The empower Diocetian also destroyed the scriptures--all that he could find-- in his realm.
Lol. You can thank the Catholic Church for compiling the canon of Scripture under the guidance of the Holy Ghost. If not for His Church, you wouldn’t have the Bible at all, even the butchered translations of heresiarchs.
@pio5119
I think you meant to say “butchered heresiarchs”
You know the ones that were dismembered and butchered on racks; the ones who had the Iron Maiden enclosed upon them; the ones written about in Fox’s Book of Martyrs and Martyrs Mirror.
Some day you will get to meet them and you’ll see your whorish Mother’s dogma was not about truth but Satanic world domination.
By the way, if the Lord has a bride, who is chaste and afflicted while sojourning in this world while being faithful to Him who gave Himself for her, who per say would be Satan’s bride? She who holds the cup and bag?
The sovereignty and grace of God Almighty to give us His Word and to preserve it throughout time for the blessing of His people.
The bible: edited, redacted, added into...all by ruling royalty to keep us slaves.

That line about the fossilized scroll being a copy of the Jerusalem Post, that killed me. LOL😂
This video is worth watching !
So Good and sharing this!! Thank Youuu!! 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽 Starting the “making sense of manuscripts” now! Exciting!!
I'm grateful for the SG-1 reference Dr. White.
Thank you, Sir! This is a great issue that pretty much of us as Christians could fail to answer. I am really grateful for the sermon.
The writers of the Bible. The Catholic Church has the fullness of the Truth
Yeah, we take the Word of God for granite. I had to say thank you Lord for the freedom I have to read the Word when and where I want. God is Holy and Gracious to us All!
Granite…lol. He is the rock after all. 😂
brilliant presentation James. God bless you. I agree with you totally >>> we are headed into some really dark times filled with lots of lost people who have been deceived and it's happening very very quickly. But thanks be to God for He is the one who keeps us and keeps His Word.
Dr White is a boss. Casually carries around a book worth more than my car.
Noticed your profile pic, can you please explain it ?
@@FatherSonSpirit1 Sure. I do translations and commentary of ancient non-canonical and gnostic texts from a Reformed Christian perspective.
Most things are worth more than my car lol
Those books he Carrie’s are worth more than most peoples cars and most likely his.
That was so interesting. I have always been curious about the legacy of our God’s Word and I agree we all need to know how to answer the skeptics. A great point James White made was referring to Homer and the Iliad and the length of time between the first replication. Great to watch! May God forgive us all for taking Him out of the USA and take his judgement off of us before it does get very dark for us. Pray Pray Pray❤❤❤
Thanks, Brothers
I wish I could find this on Sermon Audio so I can listen to this while I’m at work welding!
Brainwashing is such fun!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! No education, eh Rube?
having listened to the Dividing Line for years, it’s enjoyable to watch Dr. White in action, can he talk when he gets going !
This was so much information I feel like I need to watch it several times to retain it.
My favorite historians to listen to are James White and Robert Godfrey (Ligonier, Westminster Escondido). They both love to tell the story of the past and do a good job of keeping the listener engaged.
Loysville, PA! I've been there, that is a small village!

It would be far too Catholic for many
@@daddydaycareky Well, The Catholics put the Bible together.

Thank God for the Catholic church compiling the bible!
That’s what you got out of this? Lol, he tells a story about one of the guys having to dedicate the translation so he doesn’t get burned.
Ya but he said the catholic guy questioned the catholic churches position ? So he wasn't ok with them as a catholic..
That's like saying my son brought me and my wife together, when we were together for 6 yrs before he came around.
Very good and helpful presentation. Thank you for this break out session.
Very good theology and history!
I want to thank James White for making me a stronger Catholic Christian, as he places his own fallible interpretations above Holy Scripture, the same Scripture that came way after The Church authority was already established! Did Christians in the early Church reading Paul's letter to the Church of Laodicea, know it was not Holy Scripture? Why did many early Church Fathers disagree with each other on what books were to be included in the new testament? Peace always in Jesus Christ our Great and Kind God and Savior, He whose Flesh is true food and Blood true drink
How did James White make you a stronger Catholic? I’m not sure how someone like him would help your faith
@countryboyred James White made me a stronger Catholic by him preaching another Gospel. The Gospel of James White, is not found in Holy Scripture, or the Church authority that existed way before the new testament was ever written! Peace always in Jesus Christ our Great and Kind God and Savior, He whose Flesh is true food and Blood true drink!!
@@matthewbroderick6287 that sounds insane.
@@matthewbroderick6287 that’s just crazy man
@countryboyred it's true though! Holy Scripture teaches we must cooperate with God's saving grace and repent and bear fruit and forgive others and love one another and keep the commandments and persevere to the end to be saved! James White says none of this is True! Plus, Jesus Christ teaches the bread, WHEN BLESSED, "is My Body " James White says, "no it isn't!:. I agree, this is insane, this is crazy man! Peace always in Jesus Christ our Great and Kind God and Savior, He whose Flesh is true food and Blood true drink!
Glad I tuned in!! 🏴✝️🙏🏼🇬🇧
Thanks to God for the Catholic Church
Amen Brother
Amen thanks be Christ for the Church
Question: What Bible translation do you recommend?
@@geico1975 The NRSV Catholic Bible it’s the complete bible or the kjv Protestant bible it’s minus 7 books and tailored to false doctrines by Luther but is wrote poet and great for memorising.
@@mcars100 What are your thoughts on Douay-Rheims?
I very much enjoyed this. Lots of great information. I'm saving this to my e-Sword and I'm sharing it to my social media. Bravo Zulu and kudos.
All that said, and without taking anything away from it, I really wish he would have answered the question that is the subject of the video. Because, not only would I have liked to have heard the the culminating conclusion, but I'm fairly certain I'm going to get asked that question when I share it.
You must know that God our Father and our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ, the Lord of Lords and King of Kings, that although He hates the sin, He loves the sinner. If they will just come to Him and repent in their heart of hearts of all their sins, and proclaim Him as their Savior, their Lord, the Son of GOD.

We have a reliable collection of historical documents written by eyewitnesses during the lifetime of other eyewitnesses. They report super natural events that took place in fulfilment of specific prophecies and claim that their writings are via divine inspiration and not from men alone.
The super natural events are important in that they show the divine nature of God.
Jesus Christ cast out demons, healed the sick, blind, deaf, dumb and paralyzed, walked on water, fed thousands with little, and was resurrected all of which have eyewitness accounts.
The feedings alone were witnessed by the thousands He fed on the two separate occasions that we are told of in the Gospels.
John tells us that there were many more miracles than what are recorded in the Bible/Gospels and that it would have filled volumes of books upon books were he to have written them all down and that it would have taken more than one lifetime to do so.
The claim that men wrote the Bible so it can not be true means that no other book ever written should be believed, no matter the topic as they're all written by man.
The Bible is not just a book it is a collection of books written over a period of thousands of years of which all those books are linked together by One Divine Author. In this collection of books there are over 40 authors but only one Devine Author who links them all together via the Holy Spirit. Those authors wrote down His inspired Word given to them by God.
66 Volumes/Books in the Bible.
The bulk of the New Testament was written over a period of around 50 years. It was in 49 AD to 53 AD when the Scripture writings of the New Testament are thought to have begun. With the last living Apostle John dying in 100 AD.
Over a period of around 1500 years it was preserved and passed on:
In 3 Languages
On 3 Continents
There are 66,360+ source documents that have been found for the entire Bible of which there are 24,360 and counting source documents for the New Testament alone.
5,839 in the original Greek, some 2 million pages
18,524 translations of that Greek into other languages
Some of the oldest sources date to 125AD which is within decades of the completion of all the books that were canonized as the New Testament.
The New Testament cannon, (Gospels of the Apostles/writings, Epistles/letters to the early Churches, all sources and eyewitness accounts that were to be included), was decided at the Synod of Carthage in 397 AD.
Those asking for "Scientific Proof" about the Bible are either ignorant or asking with evil intent. An intelligent person knows that the scientific method can not be applied to verify the Bible.
Scientific Method is:
1) Has to be observable.
2) Has to be measurable.
3) Has to be repeatable.
Therefore no history can ever be proven via scientific method.
You must use the historical method based on:
Eyewitnesses accounts.
Documents from the time or as close as possible.
Make sure the story is corroborated by as many sources as possible.
Look for anyone/anything that attempted to prove any of it false in that time period or as close to it as possible.
Did anyone successfully prove any of it untrue?
If they had/have why is there no record found anywhere of it ever being disproven?
Luke = Historian
A man of science, a physician, an educated and logical man who researched and gathered the accounts of eyewitnesses. He recorded the actual eyewitness accounts of our Lord and Savior, those who had heard Him speak and were present/saw the signs/miracles He performed. He did this because the life of those eyewitnesses were coming to an end due to age and he was inspired to write them down via the Holy Spirit before they could be lost or perverted by time.
John = Evangelist
John is organized around 7 specific events/signs/miracles all seen by eyewitnesses and corroborated by many. So he also provides proof of accuracy/truth.
Mark = The shortest of the Gospels and is very direct or "Just the Facts" if you like.
Mathew = Was written to the Jewish audience and that's one of the reasons for the extensive genealogy of Christ. There are also more references to the Old Testament in his gospel compared to the others.
Peter = He lays out all the proof for the Bible and it's accuracy in 1 Peter Chapter 1. He makes the arguments that justify it all as truly what happened and that it all happened as recorded in the Gospels, the entire Bible.
All of the Apostles were eyewitnesses of Jesus and/or of the resurrected Christ. Including Paul whom Jesus came to as he was on the road traveling to Damascus to persecute more Christians. This would have been the resurrected Christ or a form of Him that came from Heaven.
There were at least 300 eyewitnesses still alive when Corinthians was written who could have disputed it but no one did.
Mathias became the 12th Apostles after Judas hung himself so the argument of there not being 12 Apostles comes from ignorance or evil intent.
There have been over 25,000 archeological digs in which there has been absolutely no evidence found that proves anything in the entire Bible false but in those digs many things have been found that prove it true.
Other cultures and non believer's historical documents show or corroborate people, places, wars and many things that are in the Bible. Yet none of them prove any of it to be false but they do strengthen it.
Word for Word Translations prove just how accurate what we have is when you consider there's no way anyone could have falsified any of it, be it via intent or mistakes.
Many church fathers in history have made extensive notes that include scripture throughout the centuries and no matter the time or place all those references to scripture corroborate each other. Which shows just how accurate translations have been throughout time and still are as long as they maintain a word for word ideology during the translation.
To falsify any of it they would have to change every single source, do it in three languages, on three continents, over a span of thousands of years, with no one catching any of it, no one ever talking about what they'd done, leaving behind no traces that they'd done it.
Not to mention they'd have to steal all of those sources to change them, changing them would be a massive undertaking considering they were hand written in those times and then put them back without ever being seen or caught during the entire process.
My last statement is this:
Simply put the Bible can defend itself like a lion just let it loose.
(Use Scripture to defend Scripture because it is a collection of eyewitness accounts that has been proven true again and again).
There's a very good movie titled "The God Who Speaks" that covers much of what I've said above. If you still have doubt I would recommend you watch it and even if you don't because it was very well made and presented.
Take care and God Bless.
Does he have a book on this subject? I think it will be tremendously helpful if he publishes a book on this subject so that we can have all this information in one place

If he did that he would have to admit the canon of the Bible came from the Catholic Church.
His irrational resentment of Catholicism means he usually avoids that topic.
Protestants by pass that lol
I am 21:30 in. Does he even get to how it was decided what is and isn't part of the Cannon?
Peace in Christ! 🕎✝️🕊️
Very helpful thankyou
where's the first 400 years of the story where the canon was determined?
Shhh! Prots don’t like to answer that question!!!!
Clemente quotes Paul as scripture so does ignatius who died in 108
Stop revealing the truth ! This channel is to keep Protestants, Protestant !!!! 🤐🤫
My thoughts exactly. Watched the entire video to see if he’d go there, but that part was conveniently left out.
*recognized* not determined. The RCC, nor any church, has the authority to give authority to Christ. It was recognized as Scripture by Clement. Meaning it's authority predates any council.
Due to the give i recieved in 1999, upon 40 days and nights of true fasting and prayer....
I have 4 words for this...Man.
They are in sequence in 1 John 3:10 kjv.
They are the first 4 words after the word "and".
You'd think he would have mentioned how got our bible back when it was compiled in the 4th century. Maybe someday he'll do a vidio on "How We Got Our Bible." That will be much more interesting.
Apparently both Augustine and Eusibius said that the N.T. was put together by the end of the 1st century. The book of Acts says that the Word of the Lord was published during that time. It does add up that we would have to wait 300 years until the Bible as a whole would be available.
He's done that a lot elsewhere.
When was it compiled in the 4th century?
God bless James White.
The Catholic Church was authority that declared the canon of scripture. The canon was debated until the end of the 4th century and the first writing that had the whole canon as we know it today is from the early 4th century.
not protestant canon,so go away,talk about YOUR canon somewhere

@@sunnydays8270 I wasn’t given anything, by the grace of God I read my way into the Church. I discovered that all the doctrines of the Church are found among the Early Church and the Fathers; all of Scripture points to Catholic doctrine and ecclesiology.
The false version of Christianity full of lies is what I assume is your own: Protestant? There is only one Church established by Christ Himself, and Protestantism pridefully split from that Body. Protestant doctrines are found nowhere in the Early Church, and can only be found in Scripture by doing violence to the text and misinterpreting it.
GREATNESS.
I’ve never been a fan of James White, but this was very well done. Excellent starting point for a great many people.
I don’t care so much for his theology, but as an historian, he is tops. Also, good at languages.

We have a reliable collection of historical documents written by eyewitnesses during the lifetime of other eyewitnesses. They report super natural events that took place in fulfilment of specific prophecies and claim that their writings are via divine inspiration and not from men alone.
The super natural events are important in that they show the divine nature of God.
Jesus Christ cast out demons, healed the sick, blind, deaf, dumb and paralyzed, walked on water, fed thousands with little, and was resurrected all of which have eyewitness accounts.
The feedings alone were witnessed by the thousands He fed on the two separate occasions that we are told of in the Gospels.
John tells us that there were many more miracles than what are recorded in the Bible/Gospels and that it would have filled volumes of books upon books were he to have written them all down and that it would have taken more than one lifetime to do so.
The claim that men wrote the Bible so it can not be true means that no other book ever written should be believed, no matter the topic as they're all written by man.
The Bible is not just a book it is a collection of books written over a period of thousands of years of which all those books are linked together by One Divine Author. In this collection of books there are over 40 authors but only one Devine Author who links them all together via the Holy Spirit. Those authors wrote down His inspired Word given to them by God.
66 Volumes/Books in the Bible.
The bulk of the New Testament was written over a period of around 50 years. It was in 49 AD to 53 AD when the Scripture writings of the New Testament are thought to have begun. With the last living Apostle John dying in 100 AD.
Over a period of around 1500 years it was preserved and passed on:
In 3 Languages
On 3 Continents
There are 66,360+ source documents that have been found for the entire Bible of which there are 24,360 and counting source documents for the New Testament alone.
5,839 in the original Greek, some 2 million pages
18,524 translations of that Greek into other languages
Some of the oldest sources date to 125AD which is within decades of the completion of all the books that were canonized as the New Testament.
The New Testament cannon, (Gospels of the Apostles/writings, Epistles/letters to the early Churches, all sources and eyewitness accounts that were to be included), was decided at the Synod of Carthage in 397 AD.
Those asking for "Scientific Proof" about the Bible are either ignorant or asking with evil intent. An intelligent person knows that the scientific method can not be applied to verify the Bible.
Scientific Method is:
1) Has to be observable.
2) Has to be measurable.
3) Has to be repeatable.
Therefore no history can ever be proven via scientific method.
You must use the historical method based on:
Eyewitnesses accounts.
Documents from the time or as close as possible.
Make sure the story is corroborated by as many sources as possible.
Look for anyone/anything that attempted to prove any of it false in that time period or as close to it as possible.
Did anyone successfully prove any of it untrue?
If they had/have why is there no record found anywhere of it ever being disproven?
Luke = Historian
A man of science, a physician, an educated and logical man who researched and gathered the accounts of eyewitnesses. He recorded the actual eyewitness accounts of our Lord and Savior, those who had heard Him speak and were present/saw the signs/miracles He performed. He did this because the life of those eyewitnesses were coming to an end due to age and he was inspired to write them down via the Holy Spirit before they could be lost or perverted by time.
John = Evangelist
John is organized around 7 specific events/signs/miracles all seen by eyewitnesses and corroborated by many. So he also provides proof of accuracy/truth.
Mark = The shortest of the Gospels and is very direct or "Just the Facts" if you like.
Mathew = Was written to the Jewish audience and that's one of the reasons for the extensive genealogy of Christ. There are also more references to the Old Testament in his gospel compared to the others.
Peter = He lays out all the proof for the Bible and it's accuracy in 1 Peter Chapter 1. He makes the arguments that justify it all as truly what happened and that it all happened as recorded in the Gospels, the entire Bible.
All of the Apostles were eyewitnesses of Jesus and/or of the resurrected Christ. Including Paul whom Jesus came to as he was on the road traveling to Damascus to persecute more Christians. This would have been the resurrected Christ or a form of Him that came from Heaven.
There were at least 300 eyewitnesses still alive when Corinthians was written who could have disputed it but no one did.
Mathias became the 12th Apostles after Judas hung himself so the argument of there not being 12 Apostles comes from ignorance or evil intent.
There have been over 25,000 archeological digs in which there has been absolutely no evidence found that proves anything in the entire Bible false but in those digs many things have been found that prove it true.
Other cultures and non believer's historical documents show or corroborate people, places, wars and many things that are in the Bible. Yet none of them prove any of it to be false but they do strengthen it.
Word for Word Translations prove just how accurate what we have is when you consider there's no way anyone could have falsified any of it, be it via intent or mistakes.
Many church fathers in history have made extensive notes that include scripture throughout the centuries and no matter the time or place all those references to scripture corroborate each other. Which shows just how accurate translations have been throughout time and still are as long as they maintain a word for word ideology during the translation.
To falsify any of it they would have to change every single source, do it in three languages, on three continents, over a span of thousands of years, with no one catching any of it, no one ever talking about what they'd done, leaving behind no traces that they'd done it.
Not to mention they'd have to steal all of those sources to change them, changing them would be a massive undertaking considering they were hand written in those times and then put them back without ever being seen or caught during the entire process.
My last statement is this:
Simply put the Bible can defend itself like a lion just let it loose.
(Use Scripture to defend Scripture because it is a collection of eyewitness accounts that has been proven true again and again).
There's a very good movie titled "The God Who Speaks" that covers much of what I've said above. If you still have doubt I would recommend you watch it and even if you don't because it was very well made and presented.
Take care and God Bless.
Does anyone know the names of the 2 saints that were executed during the Roman persecution that Dr White spoke about at 9:22 ?
Thank you my homeschool pod keeps asking this question … excited to translate what I learned into grade 3 friendly info
good luck and God bless you sister!!
God bless you. You are teaching our future as you know and with the way things are going in public and even many private schools, they maybe the only well taught people around. Thank you for giving your time and energy to something so important.
What good timing for this
Thank you Catholic Church for the putting the Bible together for us !!!
Loved this. But it must’ve missed which version is the most literal Closest to the original manuscripts?
Imagine knowing what this guy knows. Take a minute to understand what he knows… at any minute, this guy is down to debate the very nuances of biblical history, theology and biblical print history.
That’s actually incredible.
He is a narcissist, a Calvinist, and a poor debater in general. He is a "Church of me" guy in direct defiance of the Bible. He also does a lot of misleading in this talk and he knows it.
@@cjr4497 That is a big claim. What do you have to back that up? If you're going to go to the trouble of responding to my comment, surely you have some videos or previous experiences to share?
JW can claim this all he wants. At the end of the day there is one infallible voice for binding matters to the church and it isn’t him. JW deceives us and needs to resign his “job”. We all whether we like it or not, assume the Church Hierarchy gave us the canon, and if you don’t, you immediately imply that another watered down hierarchy did it
@@BoereworsRoll People that don't like him, really don't like him. They are usually Catholics.
@@BoereworsRollWatch his debate with Trent Horn on salvation and also give his debate with Patrick Madrid a listen. Come to your own conclusions
I'm an atheist but this was brilliant, so much so that i'll be watching it again at least a couple of times.
I would love to be there live for one of his lectures or sermons. One of my favorites.
I don't know how ANYONE knows what James White knows. Theological genius. There are better PREACHERS but his theological knowledge is out of this world.
Listening to this at 3 am while my baby is giving us all migraines and headaches. Literally 😂😂
