4 Misconceptions Christians Spread About The New Testament (feat. Dr. Bart Ehrman)

Dr. Bart Ehrman joins me here to discuss extremely common misconceptions about the New Testament and early Christianity. The misconceptions are: “The gospels of Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John, were written by eyewitnesses, possibly the apostles themselves.” “Christianity was relatively unified in the first few centuries, and only became theologically diverse and fragmented with time. The further you go back, the more united Christianity is.” “The proto-orthodox church fathers did not accept the authority of any texts we’d now consider non-canonical, such as the apocalypse of Peter.” “Legendary accounts of Jesus birth, ministry, and death did not have time to form by the time the Gospels were written. So, the gospel accounts are purely historical.” Check out and sign up for Dr. Ehrman’s webinar here (thanks for the support!): https://gmskeptic--ehrman.thrivecart.com/did-the-christmas-story-really-happen/ -------------------------------------------FOLLOW------------------------------------------- Twitter: https://twitter.com/gm_skeptic Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/GMSkeptic/ -------------------------------------------SUPPORT------------------------------------------- Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/GeneticallyModifiedSkeptic PayPal: https://www.paypal.me/GMSkeptic -------------------------------------------Resources for atheists in need------------------------------------------- Find a Secular Therapist: https://www.seculartherapy.org Recovering from Religion helps connect those who are leaving or have left their religion with support, resources and community: https://www.recoveringfromreligion.org/#rfr-welcome Resources for Ex-Mu’s: https://exmuslims.org/join-us/ The Deconstruction Network: https://www.phildrysdale.com/ This video contains 100% therapeutic grade skepticism.* *This statement has not been evaluated by the FDA
