Scholar Recommendation
"Williams is an authority on the New Testament text. With his expertise and skill, he guides readers through a range of evidence supporting the historical reliability of the Gospels in an easy-to-understand manner. This book explains why it is reasonable to believe the Gospels."
— Edward Adams, Professor of New Testament Studies , King's College London
Richard Dawkins 's wild and unaccepted assertion—that the only difference between *The Da Vinci Code* and the four Gospels is that the Gospels are ancient fiction while *The Da Vinci Code* is modern fiction—deserves a serious and academic response. No one is better qualified to respond to this than Peter Williams , whose book cleverly presents the compelling argument that "all history depends on Jesus."
— John C. Lennox, Honorary Professor of Mathematics, University of Oxford
This book offers a treasure trove of information for Christians seeking a deeper understanding of the historical context of the Gospels, and presents a series of challenges for those who doubt our knowledge of Jesus. Peter Williams has compiled a wealth of information and ideas into this concise and accessible book, making it a valuable resource for both church and non-church residents to read carefully.
— Simon Gathercole, Lecturer in New Testament Studies at Cambridge University
Despite the doctrine of biblical inerrancy, Christians today find themselves unwilling to bear witness to their own faith, driven by both confusion and fear. Peter Williams offers liberation to this confused and anxious group with his concise and comprehensive teachings . His powerful guidance on the reliability of the Gospels accompanies faithful believers seeking understanding, answering questions they have encountered and never even considered through a series of historically responsible interpretations. This highly detailed, accurate, and readable book, complete with clear diagrams, is truly remarkable. Both Christians and skeptics can benefit from it. It is the latest apologetic and a top-tier guide. Unbelievers, beware!
