Summary
In this episode of the Cold-Case Christianity Broadcast, J. Warner offers a number of brief, rhetorically powerful responses to the objection: "You Can't Trust the Bible Because It Was Written by Humans." Is Christian scripture limited and flawed due to the fact it was written by Christians? Does this truth explain the apparent existence of "contradictions" in the Bible? These Quick Shot responses are designed to help you remove intellectual obstacles when talking about God with your friends and family members. They are also available on the Cold-Case Christianity Phone App so you can access them as you are interacting with others.
