The Four Gospels from a Lawyer's Standpoint
Description:
What does an attorney know about the reliability of the Bible? Actually, A LOT! Edmund Bennett’s Four Gospels From a Lawyer’s Standpoint is a short, but common sense treatment of the reliability of the Gospels. In an age where doubt is constantly being cast upon the veracity of these books, Bennett demonstrates how common sense allows any reader to see what the Gospels really are, reliable historical documents. An attorney looks at evidence and witness testimony with a unique perspective. But it is precisely this method of thinking that can help increase your confidence in the New Testament accounts of Jesus.\nHere are what two top-notch scholars have said about this work.\n"Too often, New Testament scholars try so hard to read between the lines that they lose sight of what is on them. Bennett's little book draws our attention back to the small things that should have been obvious - and they are obvious, once we stop to think about them. It is a testament to the timeless value of common sense."
-Dr. Timothy McGrew, Professor of Philosophy, Western Michigan University\n"Dean Bennett's careful, lawyerly treatment of the Gospels should come as a breath of fresh air. His work reinforces the conviction of those at Simon Greenleaf that 'thinking like an lawyer' is one of the very best correctives to poor theologizing and to ineffective apologetics."
-Dr. John Warwick Montgomery
