The Problem of Canon

Michael Kruger

Opponents of Christianity are launching bold new attacks against the foundation of Christian belief: the twenty-seven books of the New Testament. Directed at the average person and calculated to undermine confidence in the Bible, these popular and destructive ideas about the origins of the New Testament have gained a widespread audience. In this lecture, Dr. Kruger describes these contemporary challenges to Christian belief and explains why Christians cannot afford to allow these challenges to go unanswered.
