Synopsis

Four Gospels, one source of truth—defending their origins against modern doubt

This volume presents a principled answer to rationalist attacks on the Bible, arguing that the four Gospels are authentic and trustworthy. It grounds its case in early Church testimony and shows how historical tradition supports the Gospel writers as authors, with consistent messages across the New Testament.

Readers will encounter a focused, methodical defense of biblical authorship and integrity. The text surveys key issues—from the authenticity of Matthew and the Acts of the Apostles to the wider question of how the Gospel accounts fit with early Christian tradition. It also critiques modern skeptical approaches, offering a framework for understanding prophecy, miracles, and revelation as part of the Christian narrative.

• Grounds for trusting the four Gospels as authentic records from Apostles and their associates
• Explanations of how early church testimony supports canonical origins
• Engagement with rationalist criticisms and a defense of the supernatural in Scripture
• Context for readers seeking thoughtful, faith-grounded biblical interpretation

Ideal for readers of biblical scholarship, apologetics, and theology who want a careful, traditional defense of Scripture.
