A girl from work i was talking to was questioning how we know God’s word is actually true. She grew up listening to it but she still doesn’t think its true. I was a little stunned when i heard this i didn’t know what to say. These shapter have encouraged me so i will be able to respond and maybe try to help them.

I guess i have more of a comment. By Reading through these chapters i learned a lot of things that ifeel like i should have know, but didn’t know. For example different facts like how many letter Paul wrote. I didn’t realize that he worte 13 letters to churches and individuals. I also didn’t know that Luke was the author of Acts and that Acts is a continuation of Luke. I have never really known exactly how much evidence there was to support the New Testament writings, but reading pages 10-11 shocked me. I didn’t know there were that many different sources to support the New Testament! I feel like i have spent more time studying the Bible itself, but not mush time at all learing about from where it originated and how it was put together. I felt like I learned a range of new things that i should have already know by reading these couple of chapters.

On page 9 Lightfoot Tischendorf and Tregelles are mentioned, why would their writings be significant? were they historians or philosophers?
