YouTube Description

as posted by the channel

I've wanted to have this kind of conversation for a long time. Wesley Huff is a New Testament historian who studies ancient manuscripts, and he is exactly the kind of thinker I wish I had found before I became a Christian. The logical part of my brain needed someone who could walk through the evidence without assuming you already believe it.

In this episode we get into how close modern Bibles actually are to the original manuscripts and why we are getting closer to the original text over time, not further away. Why the ESV is not a dumbed-down Bible and why words in the King James have actually changed meaning. Whether a Christian can lose their salvation and what the Scripture says about it. The best historical case for the resurrection and why liars make bad martyrs. What speaking in tongues actually was in the New Testament and why it requires a translator. The Gnostic Gospels, the Gospel of Thomas and why early Christians already knew these were fake. What Gnosticism actually teaches and why it is making a quiet comeback today. And why studying under people who don't believe Christianity only made Wesley's faith stronger.
