Heralds or Liars?
from Devotions with Pastor Stanton · host Stanton Petersen
Imagine walking into a courtroom. A witness takes the stand, places their right hand on a Bible, and swears to tell the whole truth and nothing but the truth. Now, imagine that witness looking the jury dead in the eye and fabricating a story about an event they never saw. In a court of law, that’s called perjury. It’s a serious crime because lives and destinies hang in the balance of a witness’s testimony. When it comes to the origins of the Christian faith, the men who wrote the New Testament were taking the witness stand. And if what they said wasn’t true, it wasn't just a harmless myth or a comforting metaphor, it was the greatest act of perjury in human history.
