This message presents powerful archaeological and historical evidence for the Bible’s reliability such as coins minted by the Herods that confirm their names, titles, and reigns exactly as recorded in Matthew, Luke, and Acts. It also highlights the extraordinary manuscript evidence: the works of Jewish historian Josephus (AD 37–100) independently naming Jesus, John the Baptist, Herod, Pilate, and other biblical figures and events, over 5,600 Greek New Testament copies with a short time gap to the originals, and the Dead Sea Scrolls, whose Old Testament texts from the 3rd century BC to 1st century AD are nearly identical to today’s Hebrew Bible. We can fully trust the Bible as God’s unchanging Word—it accurately records history, endures every attack, and declares the gospel of grace.
