The question that shatters faith, forever.

[FallentoReason]

You do understand the NT is a collection of separate books and letters do you not? As such everything written about Jesus is either apart of the NT or it is considered to be a supporting book of the bible.

I understand perfectly what the NT is comprised of, which is partly the reason for my deconversion. The more I was convinced I knew the absolute truth, the more I told people to read the witness accounts of the disciples. This also made me want to be able to show people the proofs that the NT could be taken as the literal accounts of Jesus.

Question. Can you show me how we can conclude that e.g. Matthew did infact write his own gospel? Here's food for thought as well. Scholars say Matthew was written after Mark. The author of Mark has a humble take on things and then you read Matthew and you can't help but realise things all of a sudden have become supernatural. The young man wearing white robes in the tomb all of a sudden becomes the angel in white. Someone clearly didn't know what they were seeing.
