Episode 39 - Are there forged writings in the New Testament ?
We discuss the issue of some New Testament letters that have strong evidence to suggest that the author was not who they claimed to be. This practice was not uncommon in that period. We dig a bit deeper on the letter 2 Peter in particular.
We took the opportunity to quickly discuss another chapter from our â50 Arguments for Faithâ book: chapter 47 on the NT canon.
What does it say on this issue?
