  7. CLAIM… “Constantine commissioned and financed a new Bible…” (The Da Vinci Code, p234)

  8. CLAIM… “The Bible as we know it today, was collated by the pagan emperor Constantine the Great.” (The Da Vinci Code, p231)

  9. TRUTH… History proves that the bible was set at least 100-150 years before Constantine and the Council of Nicea…in fact history proves that they didn’t even discuss the formation of the Bible at the Council

  10. CLAIM: “More than eighty gospels were considered for the New Testament, and yet only a relative few were chosen for inclusion – Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John among them.” (The Da Vinci Code, p231)

  11. TRUTH: There are only 21 (34), and the 4 that are in the Bible are the only ones written at the time of Jesus, by people that knew Jesus, saw Jesus and interacted with Jesus.

  12. In addition to the four canonical gospels • we have four complete noncanonicals • seven fragmentary • four known from quotations • two hypothetically recovered • Ex. The Gospel of Judas (AD 170)

  13. Irenaeus (Bishop of Lyons – France) Beware of fictitious history like the writer of the Gospel of Judas (adv. Haer A.D. 180)

  14. Irenaeus (Bishop of Lyons – France) “It is not possible that the Gospels [Matthew, Mark, Luke, John] can be either more or fewer in number than they are…” (circa A.D. 181)

  15. Tertullian (A.D. 206 – North Africa) Accepted only the four Gospels.

  16. Origen (A.D. 244-254 – Egypt) [Matthew, Mark, Luke and John]…“are the only indisputable ones in the church of God…we have approved solely what the church has recognized, which is that only the four Gospels should be accepted.”

  17. Aside from the four Gospels we have in the Bible today, no other Gospel was written closer than 150 years after the time of Jesus…they were written by authors that did not know Jesus and cannot be believed as reliable witness to the life and teachings of Jesus

  18. Dead Sea Scrolls CLAIM… “…some of the gospels Constantine attempted to eradicate…survived [in] the Dead Sea Scrolls….” (The Da Vinci Code, p234)

  19. Dead Sea Scrolls CLAIM… “The scrolls highlight glaring historical discrepancies and fabrications…” (The Da Vinci Code, p234)

  20. Dead Sea Scrolls HISTORICAL TRUTH… Not one New Testament document was found

  21. The Bibliographical Test 200 How many manuscripts do you have? 10

  22. The Bibliographical Test • The New Testament: manuscripts 24,633

  23. The Bibliographical Test What is the #2 manuscript authority after the New Testament?

  24. The Bibliographical Test “The Iliad” by Homer 643 manuscripts

  25. Iliad: 643 The Bibliographical Test New Testament – 24,633

  26. No historical document is more reliable • Historians use and trust the geography of the Bible • There are no errors in the Bible • It is not a product of a man or men

  27. The Bible is God’s Word to God’s people • 2 Timothy 3:16-17 (NLT)16 All Scripture is inspired by God and is useful to teach us what is true and to make us realize what is wrong in our lives. It corrects us when we are wrong and teaches us to do what is right. 17 God uses it to prepare and equip his people to do every good work.

  28. Comment from the Da Vinci Code Question Cards If the book of Phillip is missing parts and had to be filled-in, how many texts were guessed at?
