Bible Note: Friend, I think you have completely missed what I have tried to convey to you but then maybe I’m mixed up, you tell me! I’ll try again: In your post you stated this; (when these commissions were wrote Christ had not ascended back to the Father yet) I surmise that you meant written instead of wrote which we could say penned, for sake of clarity, when the writer produced his literary work. The problem is, there wasn’t any written form of the New Testament in any form until, and this is debated, the writings of Paul or James and that was from somewhere between 45 A.D. and 55 A.D. Most everyone knows that Matthew, Mark, Luke and John weren’t the first books written in the New Testament; that’s just how man placed them in the file of books that we call the Bible. Jesus had been seated along side the Father at His right hand for many, many years before we had any script of the New Testament. If that was not the case how could Paul have seen Jesus while on the road to Damascus when Paul became a believer, seeing that his writings were those of the earliest? Your material isn’t in question; it’s your time frame that has to be off as to when the earliest books of the New Testament were written. I hope you see what I’m trying to explain, no harm intended! Have a great day, CDBJ |
