Thirteen Arguments for the Reliability of the New Testament

Benjamin Shaw,

About this book

How can we be sure the New Testament is trustworthy?

It's an important question, yet debates about its historical accuracy often feel overwhelming and difficult to engage with. We want to be confident that the New Testament's accounts are true and reliable, but scholarly discussions around the authenticity of the events recounted in Scripture can be challenging to navigate.

In Trustworthy Ben Shaw provides the clear introduction we've needed for understanding the New Testament's historical reliability. In this book Shaw systematically surveys key issues related to New Testament reliability and provides guidance for those setting out to explore the evidence.

Concise, to-the-point chapters equip readers to answer the challenging questions we encounter when discussing the credibility of the New Testament. Addressing a wide variety of evidence, Shaw leads readers through the key scholarly topics related to New Testament reliability. The book also includes thoughtful recommendations for further reading for readers who want to explore various topics in depth, as well as helpful charts and figures.

Topics covered in Trustworthy include:

New Testament textual evidence, genres, authorship, and creedal traditions
Historical criteria and archaeology
Non-Christian sources and noncanonical Christian sources
New Testament canon and credibility
Spiritual and life transformation

Shaw compellingly demonstrates that we can trust the New Testament not only for its historical accuracy but also as a guide to life. With thoughtful analysis and clear evidence, Trustworthy invites you to embrace the reliability of the New Testament with confidence.
