Hell, forget history. If the Gospels conflict with each other or with other books of the Bible, which one takes precedence?
Example: After his baptism, did Jesus go off into the wilderness for 40 days (Mark) or did he hang around for a few days gathering disciples and then attend a wedding (John)?
Quote:Mark 1:12-13 And immediately (after the baptism) the spirit driveth him (Jesus) into the wilderness. And he was there in the wilderness forty days, tempted of Satan; and was with the wild beasts; and the angels ministered unto him.
Quote:John 2:1-2 And the third day (after the baptism) there was a marriage in Cana of Galilee; and the mother of Jesus was there: And both Jesus was called, and his disciples, to the marriage.
