Summary

Bart Ehrman has convinced more people to reject the Christian faith than almost anyone alive today. But he has done so largely through being very misleading. I'm going to provide some solid examples of this as it relates to the crucifixion of Jesus in the Gospel of Mark because I think there is a lot of benefit in dealing with misleading claims about the Bible. I'm doing a lot of apologetics related stuff here at the end of this series on the Gospel of Mark and I hope you find it faith building and inspiring! Here's my teaching on Psalm 22 as an amazing passage that gives us good evidence that Jesus was prophesied ahead of time. https://youtu.be/eq8oaOix3rs This is part 65 of the Mark Series, going verse by verse through the Gospel of Mark. Today we are in chapter 14:53-72. See the WHOLE Gospel of Mark playlist here. https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list... The video clip I used from Bart Ehrman is from this debate he had with Craig Evans https://youtu.be/ZakwU4m9IJg I have live videos every Monday and Friday at 1pm Pacific Time. Monday is a Bible study and Friday is a Q&A. Feel free to use my videos in your own gatherings as an aid to studying Scripture.

Here we go. So Dr. Bart Airman, the kind of the subject of today's study in the Gospel of Mark,

0:06.1

Dr. Bart Airman, he is an atheist or an agnostic depending on which context he's in, but he may have

0:11.5

turned more Christians into atheists than anybody else alive today. I say this because I know a lot

0:18.2

of Christians have never heard of him, but when I have conversations and dialogue with people who

0:22.9

say, I'm a, I was a Christian, I was raised as a Christian, and they have like an intellectual

0:27.5

journey out of the faith. They almost always quote Bart Airman. They almost always refer to one of

0:33.0

his books like Jesus interrupted or misquoting Jesus or forged or something like that. So it really

0:39.7

is worthwhile to take his content that's very persuasive, that is convincing lots of people to depart

0:45.2

from the Christian faith. It's very useful to take that content and break it down. This is not a

0:49.8

shots fired thing like Mike's gonna rip Bart Airman apart. Like this is not, I don't even like that

0:55.6

way of handling issues. I don't want to do that as, as a Christian. I don't, I'm not gonna,

1:00.2

don't really want to go down that road, but I do want to take on his claims and I'm going to play

1:05.0

clips of Bart Airman for you and I want to show you how they're absolutely inarruably,

1:09.9

demonstrably false and misleading. So we're going to get into this today because he is a best-selling

1:15.4

author, again, one of the most influential atheists alive or agnostics alive today and very, very,

1:21.0

misleading in this case. So here's how we're going to start. I know we're in the Mark series. I know

1:24.9

we're going verse by verse through the Gospel of Mark and all that, but I told you sometimes I would

1:27.8

stop and I would do these like topical things that are about the passage we're in. What we happen

1:32.3

to be in the crucifixion of Jesus and the section where Jesus cries out, my God, my God, why have you

1:36.9

forsaken me? This is a place that is targeted by Bart Airman to mislead people in my opinion, but

1:44.4

here's what I want to do. I'm going to play a clip of Bart Airman. This is like a three minute long

1:47.7

clip, a little over three minutes. And I want you to listen to it thoughtfully. Don't just think
