The Berean Takes on the Atheist

I don't know about you, but if the four Gospels were identical copies of each other, what would be the point? If four people walk into a courtroom as key eyewitnesses and they deliver exactly the same testimony, what would you think?

Why should you expect the eyewitness accounts in the gospels to be any different? As a Christian, I always read knowing that I'm seeing the gospels from different perspectives. If you want to view the Gospels from a single narrative, look up the Gospel harmonies that do just that. It amazes me that people expect that if two Gospel accounts say something different about the same account, that it represents a contradiction. Instead, what it actually does is fill in detail one witness represented vs. the other. Hardly a contradiction.

I've yet to find a so-called contradiction in the Gospels that a good Berean study had any trouble refuting.

I don't aways do this but since I personally went from atheism to Christianity, here are four books that I would recommend.

Mere Christianity, by CS Lewis

The Case for Christ, by Lee Strobel

Evidence that Demands a Verdict, by Josh and Sean McDowell

Cold-Case Christianity, by J. Warner Wallace
