Can We Trust the Bible?

The Gospels class, taught by Jeff Moore at GBTS, explores the foundation and authority of the four biblical Gospels-Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John-while addressing the critical question: What books should be in the Bible, and how do we know? This session delves into the canon of Scripture, examining how the early church recognized the authoritative Word of God. Through biblical and historical analysis, Moore discusses Jesus' confirmation of the Old Testament canon, the recognition of the New Testament books, and why writings such as the Gospel of Judas and the Gospel of Thomas were excluded. Emphasizing the self-authenticating nature of Scripture, this class highlights the divine preservation of God's Word and its sufficiency for faith and practice. With a commitment to biblical authority and theological depth, this course equips students, pastors, and laypeople to confidently understand and defend the truth of the Gospels. Whether you're new to biblical studies or looking to deepen your theological understanding, this class offers a compelling and rigorous approach to God’s inspired Word.
