    Questions about the Greek of the New Testament

    From what I understand, the oldest versions of the New Testament were written in a very well-educated Koine Greek. Starting with the Gospels and the book of Acts I have the following questions. According to Chritianity, is it claimed that the authors of the Gospels wrote the New Testament...

    The Fallacy that Jesus said what is written in the gospels

    It was supposed to be the start of a conversation but the Christian never responded. I wonder why. Here's the gist of what I said: The Greek scholars who wrote the gospels, far as we know, didn't have any sources--notes or documents from which to draw on when writing down Jesus' words in...

    The Gospels in Islam: Authentic or Corrupted?

    Injil is the Arabic name for the Gospel of Jesus. This Injil is described by the Quran as one of the Holy books revealed by God, Including the Tawrat (Torah) and the Quran itself. The word Injil is also used in the Quran, the Hadith and early Muslim documents to refer to both a book and...

    Calvinists only: How do you interpret these passages?

    For many months, maybe a year, I've been studying debates for and against Calvinism. While passages such as Romans 9 are argued to support Calvinism, I'd like to hear your view on at least one of the passages challenging Calvinism. (Quotations are from the New King James Version.) Luke 8:4-15...

    The Resurrection of Jesus: Allegorical Story or Historical Truth?

    Most of us from a Christian background are familiar with the story of how Jesus is crucified and after three days rises from the dead. Over a period of forty days He appears to His disciples and eventually ascends through the stratosphere to be with His Father in heaven. No atheists will believe...

    Can theological difference between the Gospels and the Qur'an be resolved?

    This question is mainly for adherents of a Theistic religion. Can theological difference between the Gospels and the Qur'an be resolved?

    Mark 12:28-34 & "fundamentalism"

    Based upon what I've read in popular media and the news, when a Christian is referred to as a "fundamentalist," it typically means that the Christian is socially conservative. Although no description can apply to everyone, it seems that a typical "fundamental" Christian might be in favor of...

    It has been alleged by Bible conspiracy theorists that there are gospels that were submitted to be included in the Bible, but were decided not to be included because they did not portray Jesus as divine, but as a man. These include Gospel of Peter, the Gospel of Mary, and the Gospel of Judas...

    Astronomy & Esoteric Astrology in the Gospels?

    ... There are strong indications that the four Gospels of the Cannon have a hidden story: that of the Sun’s travel in each constellation of the zodiac, within a solar year. The purpose of this story is: a) as simple as to teach astronomy and b) to show and teach the esoteric journey from...
