About
Who is Jesus? And how do we know that what we read about in the biblical Gospels is an accurate portrayal of that Jesus?
This may seem like an odd question, but it’s connected to many important issues surrounding the Bible. Is the Christianity practiced today the same as the one believed and practiced by the Apostles? What if what we think of as Christianity today is just the result of the theological winners? After all, what about the Gnostics, Docetics, Ebionites, and Marcionites? They wrote their own gospels and none of those ended up in the Bible. What is gnosticism, anyway, and what does it have to do with Jesus?
Wes and Steve held another round of the AC Literary Expedition on Sunday, November 26th. They looked at select videos from TikTok and other social media platforms, weighed their claims, and used them as a jumping board for a time of discussion and Q&R about the Bible and early Christianity.
