Are the Gospels HISTORICAL? (Summer Reading)

[@twilightdust8389]

You’re one of my favorite Christian channels. Thank you for bringing awareness to the BLM movement. God bless !

[@JonJorgensonVideos]

Much love! It's not nearly enough attention. I know I'm not doing enough. But I hope these resources will help educate people and bring them into a deeper understanding and empathy. Thanks for watching.

Thanks for making this video, I appreciate it!

Such a helpful and needed discussion. Too often we ask the wrong questions of the text on account of an assumption that the gospels are something that they never claimed to be. I’m not intending to propose an elitist view of reading the Bible, but 2,000 years removed it’s so helpful to take the time to ask sincerely WHAT the gospels are before trying to rush into what they MEAN. We have to be careful to mitigate our Western, Post-Enlightenment framework that we bring to the text, which starts by recognizing it, then learning about the gulf between our world and there’s, our assumption of what history is and how it functions. Beautiful introduction. I might have to add “Reading the Gospels Wisely “ to my reading list. First I plan to get through “The Gospels as Eyewitness Testimony” which I’ve been meaning to do. This content is going to be so helpful in helping people read literately, responsibly, and fruitfully. Thanks, Jon.

Hey Jon, I just discovered your channel and appreciate the fact that your doctrine and theology is spot-on. Thanks for being open and transparent regarding the current issues. I've rebooted my channel and now a NEW Jon Jorgenson SUBSCRIBER.

[@kristincox0212]

Thanks for adding another insightful perspective on the gospels. I think that viewing the gospels, the New Testament, and the Tanakh through a variety of lenses offer a more well rounded and deeper understanding and appreciation for them. ❤️

[@JonJorgensonVideos]

Well said! I'm glad you're here and willing to go on this journey with us.

We try. Much love.

You are a blessing bro keep going

[@danielsden2651]

Well explained Jon 👍❗ I really like the analogy seeing history with through different lenses. Matthew = Jesus as king/messiah Mark = Jesus as servant Luke = Jesus as son of man John = Jesus as Son of God Inspired by you Jon and others I'm starting a project for biblical encouragment on this platform. Would be great if you would have a look and might support it 😊.

[@JonJorgensonVideos]

Hope you and encouraged.

[@JM-gz1ej]

That is a very honest interpretation rather than just saying it is the truth. I'm sold.

[@JonJorgensonVideos]

Thanks for listening.

[@chriss9356]

Hi Jon, thanks for all you do. I would suggest the Eyes on the Prize series. It was a thirteen part series on PBS in the 80s that follows the civil rights movement. It is very well done. Even just watching the first episode will give people some perspective. It is on KZbin

[@angelavanoosten1]

I'm literally following a free Hillsong college course about this! So interesting

[@JonJorgensonVideos]

That's awesome. I'd love to hear how they structure their course/what they cover.

[@angelavanoosten1]

@@JonJorgensonVideos they cover a lot, it's about the New Testament and it's really deep about the historical & pastoral & geographical & social background and just the context of why the gospels were written and it's really interesting! You could only sign up till May sadly

[@thebiblefoundation]

I am Gali, in the year 1980 I lost all my hopes, I became a thief and club dancer. At that time I heard about Christ, the Lord spoke with me though the Scripture. JOHN 14:6 “I AM THE WAY THE TRUTH AND THE LIFE NO MAN COMETH UNTO THE FATHER BUT BY ME.” I surrendered my life to Lord Jesus and confessed that He is the only Lord and died for my sins to deliver me from all my sins (Karma). When I totally surrendered my life to the Lord He has delivered me from evil spirits, which suffered me about 6 years. I became a new person in Christ. I love Bible so much and started memorizing the scriptures. By the grace of God I have memorized Five Thousand (5,000) Verses from the Holy Bible. Every week I also remember all the verses. Morning time I remember about 1500 verses for praise, worship and prayer. (Including 100 Psalms). This practice helps me to grow strong in the Lord and also to help others for the glory of the Lord. John 14:6 is my favorite verse; I preach this word to many unsaved people that they may find the peace in Jesus Christ because He is the Lord of all. kzbin.info/www/bejne/fYi5mqWvjLyWnpY

[@domingo-osabel]

Question: What are the evidences of the Bible in real history? Thank you, Jon 💖

[@simonerobledo8198]

The Bible is real history! The Bible is not just one book but a collection of many documents. These documents are written by different people, at different times, but they don't contradict each other and that is one of the reasons why we can believe that the Bible is inspired by God therefore reliable.

[@JonJorgensonVideos]

That's a HUGE question. Haha. To start, when you think about just how old the Bible is, and how well it has been preserved, it HAS to be saying something important. I don't think people would go through such great pains of preserving it's contents if there wasn't something absolutely true and transformative in it's pages. The Bible Project offers a free "Intro to the Hebrew Bible" course that is a GREAT resource for learning about the origins of the Bible and what exactly we're talking about when we say "history" in regards to the Bible.

[@domingo-osabel]

@@simonerobledo8198 Yes. Thank you so much. I just want to add that the Bible is reliable historically, archeologically, geographically, prophetically, and philosophically, or even more realistically. Documents are solid evidences of the Bible, but there's a lot more.

[@domingo-osabel]

@@JonJorgensonVideos Thank you so much, Jon. I already enrolled on the free course of Bible Project. So exciting... 😄
