Charles Sebold: Lost Tomb of Jesus, Part 2
This is part two of a two-part series, describing recent findings in Jerusalem and discussing why we can’t believe everything we read. This week we quickly review the evidence presented for and against the “lost tomb,” and discuss apologetics and how to counter recent claims that the Bible is not inerrant, inspired, and essentially the same as it was when the authors wrote the books.
