The Resurrection of Jesus Part II

This article popped up today on CNN from Time. Those of us following Christ should welcome these kinds of questions and inquiry. Does this mean anything for the Christian faith?

Does this rock your world?

Christianity Today posted this article talking about stories in the Bible that Theologians are finding do not appear to "fit" into the early Biblical manuscripts. I have a feeling that this is freaking some people out. This particular article is on the story of the woman caught in adultery and the whole he who has not sinned, cast the first stone.

Does this rock your world or does everything in the Bible have to be historically accurate in the way we know history today coming from the mouth of Jesus...or is this story there to communicate more about Christ and his character? I think these kinds of situations are fascinating and create good dialog.

Pierre was able to take a class by (the quoted) Craig Evans last summer, in which we were able to discuss the concepts presented in this article. It does make one think though on how we use the Bible to drive home our points. Kudos to CT for bringing topics like this to the general populations attention.

What do you think?
