Bible Question: Who do you believe about Jesus--those who were closest to Him, or those who are two thousand years removed from the events? |
Bible Answer: I'm not exactly sure how to answer your question. On the one hand, you have Moses (by some accounts c. 1500-1400 B.C.). What the Lord prophesied about the Christ, through Moses and the other prophets, is true. (Luke 24:27, et. al.). As an aside, since I quoted from Luke, I would also mention that he was not an eyewitness, Luke 1:1-4. This is not meant to discredit Luke, by any means - simply an observation. "All Scripture is inspired by God and profitable for teaching, for reproof, for correction, for training in righteousness;" (2 Tim 3:16) We also have the testimony of those who beheld Christ's glory (John 1:14). If your question looks at what modern people think, I would see if their modern thoughts align with what the Bible says. |
