In this video, we tackle one of the most common objections to Christianity: “The Gospels were written too late to be eyewitness accounts.” ⏳📜

We’ll walk through how Luke, Acts, and Paul’s letters help us build a historical timeline—and why the missing events in Acts (like the destruction of the temple and the deaths of key apostles) actually point to an early date for these records. 🧠🔍 You’ll see how Luke uses earlier sources, how Mark fits into the sequence, and why a creed in 1 Corinthians 15 may date to within just a few years of the crucifixion.

If you’ve ever heard, “You can’t trust the Gospels; they were written too long after the fact,” this video is for you. We’ll look at the internal evidence, early creeds, and historical events that show why the “late Gospels” objection doesn’t hold up under serious scrutiny. 📖🔥
