1. What do you see as some of the shortcomings and benefits of using archaeology to corrobrate the New Testament?

2. If Luke and other New Testament writers are shown to be accurate in reporting incidental details, does this increase your confidence that they would be similarly careful in recording more important events? why or why not?

3. Why do you find Dr. Mc Ray's analysis of the puzzles concerning the census, the existence of Nazareth, and the slaughter at Bethlehem to be generally plausible or implausible?

4. After having considered the eyewitness, documentary, corroborating, and scientific evidence in the case for Christ, stop and assess your conclusions so far. On a scale of zero to ten, with zero being "No confidence" in the essential reliability of the gospels and ten being "Full confidence," where would you rate yourself at this point? What are some reasons you chose that number?

eyewitnesses? um ... the New Testament was written from oral stories by unknown authors some 30-70 yrs after Jesus was purported to have left planet (plenty of time for fanciful embellishments) and has been revised and rewritten many times since then.
and archaeological evidence indicating that this governor or that building existed proves only that the governor and building existed.
many of the places and personages mentioned in the Gita were historically real places and real people but that doesn't mean that Krishna really twirled a mountain on his pinky finger.

Did Jesus make statements reguarding his status, the words, the will and the power he used ? Let us find out.


WORDS
Joh 7:16 Jesus answered them and said, "My doctrine is not Mine, but His
who sent Me.
Joh 14:24 "He who does not love Me does not keep My words; and the word
which you hear is not Mine but the Father's who sent Me.
Joh 12:49 "For I have not spoken on My own authority; but the Father who
sent Me gave Me a command, what I should say and what I should speak.


WILL
Joh 4:34 Jesus said to them, "My food is to do the will of him who sent
me, and to accomplish his work.
Joh 6:38 "For I have come down from heaven, not to do My own will, but
the will of Him who sent Me.
Lu 22:42 saying, "Father, if it is Your will, take this cup away from Me;
nevertheless not My will, but Yours, be done."



POWER
Joh 5:30 "I can of Myself do nothing. As I hear, I judge; and My judgment
is righteous, because I do not seek My own will but the will of the
Father who sent Me.
Joh 8:42 Jesus said to them, "If God were your Father, you would love me,
for I proceeded and came forth from God; I came not of my own accord,
but he sent me.


KNOWLEDGE
Mr 13:32 "But of that day and hour no one knows, not even the angels in
heaven, nor the Son, but only the Father.
Mt 24:36 "But of that day and hour no one knows, not even the angels of
heaven, but My Father only.
Joh 7:16 So Jesus answered them, "My teaching is not mine, but his who
sent me;


STATUS
Mt 7:21 "Not everyone who says to Me, 'Lord, Lord,' shall enter the
kingdom of heaven, but he who does the will of My Father in heaven.
Mr 10:18 And Jesus said to him, "Why do you call me good? No one is good
but God alone.
8:50 "And I do not seek My own glory; there is One who seeks and judges.

Some Christians, (not all) claim that Jesus implied that he was God. From the above verses, we
see that Jesus denied being God. It now leaves the Christians who believe Jesus is God to provide
just one single verse in the Bible where Jesus says "I am God". There is no such verse, so we see from
the many quotes above, that the House did not belong to Jesus, it belonged to the ONE WHO
SENT him
