Evidence for why we know the New Testament writers told the truth.

I'm terribly sorry. I thought he meant the babblical fairy tale of genesis, not the band Genesis. :) :rolleyes:

He could have also meant the Alan Parsons song Genesis from the I Robot album...and...Alan Parsons did the engineering for The Dark Side of the Moon, and Genesis was also a contemporaneous prog-rock band so we are only 3 more degrees of separation from discovering the veracity of...erm...something... :boggled:

I think you're on the wrong track, anyway. Jesus wasn't into prog-rock, more like hard rock; he was from Nazareth.

Hold on...We're on to something big...Hipgnosis designed cover art for Nazareth, Genesis, Pink Floyd, Alan Parsons... :eye-poppi

We're definitely getting closer to THE TRUTH. Only 2 more degrees to go... ;)

I'm going to write DOC's "Evidence" into nice little stories, so that we can all have a newcomer-friendly, easily accessed version of them.

The Book of DOC

1:1 Once upon a time in the lands beyond the sea there lived a man whose name was DOC.
2 His livelihood was a righteous one, and he was a god-fearing man. For that, the LORD blessed him many-fold.
3 When he had a moment to spare, DOC would spread the word of the LORD to the unsaved, swaying them with those flawless arguments and unquenchable reasonings of his.
4 There came a day when DOC was on his way to buy bread. He saw that the price of a cubit's loaf of bread had been heightened, from 12 to 13 shekels. This was a disgrace in the presence of the LORD.
5 DOC went before the merchant, and spake unto him, "Doth thee not betray thy word of scripture, like the horse-thief and the man-whore? Quoth the scripture, 'The LORD abhors dishonest scales, but accurate weights are his delight.' Verily, by thee changing the price of a cubit's loaf of bread, thee hath betrayed thy scripture."
6 Quoth the merchant, "Ye who follow that foolish law, that goat-herder's law of old, are the truly damned ones. For was there a LORD in the heavens, surely such an entity could foresee that which is inflation."
7 Upon hearing that this merchant was indeed a godless man, DOC was enraged and the spirit of the LORD came over him. "Hath thee not read thy scripture? Verily, quoth Matthew 22:21 'Render therefore unto Caesar the things which are Caesar's; and unto God the things that are God's.' As I have shown before you, the merchant is subjcet to the law of God, naught the rules of Caesar."
8 This did not sway the merchant, for his heart had been hardened, and he thus spake "Ye who wish to condemn those who believe not in tales, but the world as it is, may dwell elsewhere, but remove thyself from my store!"
9 But the spirit of the LORD was strong in DOC, and he spake "Hath thee not heard? The word of Norman L. Geisler, scribe of "I don't have enough faith to be an atheist"? Verily, he states as follows, "The New Testament writers included embarassing details about themselves." Thus in the present of the LORD, DOC had proved the authencity of the New Testament. This pleased the LORD.
10 The merchant fell to his knees and quoth, "Forgive me, for I have been a fool, a knave of devils, a Philistine! Is there anything I can do to save this soul of mine?"
11 "Surely," quoth DOC, "For Jesus Christ our Lord and Savioru died on the cross for your sins. Merely accept him as your personal saviour and your sins shall be forgiven."
12. And on that day, another soul was saved at the hand of DOC, and the LORD was pleased.

"If 'IFs' and 'BUTs' were candy and nuts, we'd all have had a Merry Christmas." When are you going to get around to serious proof / evidence? Do you have anything beyond vague and inaccurate suppositions?

I don't think I would have had a merry xmas mate. I'm still getting over the worst case of 'smash-hits' I've had for many a year. I can't even have a drink and if I'd had the balls to eat nuts, well, it would have been like wiping my poor old arse with sandpaper. It's like a WWII Japanese flag as it is!!!




All on top of pinching a nerve in my back on xmas eve doing an 'officer and a gent' when I picked my missus up from work. I'm in agony I tell ya.

If God exists miracles are possible. Jesus is part of the Godhead, which is why he said I am in the Father and the Father is in me (or in other words I am God in the flesh).

And how does the Law of Conservation of Matter that you brought up explain 10 billion trillion stars coming from non-matter. Bottom line is no scientific laws that we know of explain what happened at the Big Bang (as whatever happened is called). And the fact that the universe had a beginning fits right in with the Genesis' account that God created the universe from nothing. People like Einstein at one time thought the universe just always existed.

Great, in a controlled situation pray over a couple of fish and a couple of loaves of bread and multiply them. It also doesn't not follow that if a god exists he's not bound by the natural laws that govern the universe. I'd read a bit on M theory were I you to learn something about the origins of the universe.

Thank GodTM we've finally come up with M Theory. It's always bothered me when many Scientists would just shrug and suggest the Big Bang might have occurred ex nhilio. Sounded too much like Genesis for my liking. Now we have M Theory and Multiple Universe theory to help explain things more clearly.

If Harry Potter hadn't stopped Voldemort, we'd all be under the rule of the dark lord.
 
Hooray for Harry Potter!

30 to1 against DOC catching the drift...
(did I get the odds the right way 'round?)
