Attacks on the historical reliability of the Gospels--especially their portrayal of Jesus Christ--are nothing new. But are these attacks legitimate? Is there reason to doubt the accuracy of the Gospels? By examining and refuting some of the most common criticisms of the Gospels, author Mark D. Roberts explains why we can indeed trust the Gospels, nearly two millennia after they were written.
Lay readers and scholars alike will benefit from this accessible book, and will walk away confident in the reliability of the Gospels.
