At a particular time in the history of the kingdom of heaven invaded the earth - in the events of the incarnation, crucifixion, and resurrection of Jesus Christ. Christianity, then, is distinguished from other religions by having its roots in a specific period of time. Thus it is important that the writings that record the events prove to be reliable. F.F. Bruce presents in this study the most convincing evidence for the historical trustworthiness of the canon of the New Testament.NOTES: Donated by Tim Hegg. SUBTITLE: Are They Reliable?
