Summary
In this episode of the Cold-Case Christianity Broadcast, J. Warner answers listener email about the existence of variants in the earliest manuscripts we have for the New Testament. Does the fact that ancient copies of the Gospels don't agree entirely mean that we can't trust them? How does this impact our notion of Biblical inerrancy? To submit your own question about Christianity, please subscribe to the daily email on the homepage at ColdCaseChristianity.com and reply to any of the emails you receive, asking your question. J. Warner will do his best to answer some of these questions in upcoming episodes of the broadcast.
