About this sermon
If Mark really preserves Peter’s eyewitness testimony, what does that do to skeptical claims about the Gospels? 🤔📖 In Part 2, cold case detective J. Warner Wallace builds on the first episode and makes the case that Mark is not only Peter’s Gospel, but also likely the earliest written Gospel—the one Matthew and Luke used as a foundation. In this episode we cover: • ⏱️ Why Mark’s short, urgent, “rough” style points to an early source • 📚 How Matthew and Luke appear to expand and smooth Mark’s material • 🧩 What this means for alleged contradictions between the Gospels • 🔥 How Mark’s focus on suffering, persecution, and the cross demolishes the idea of a prosperity gospel • 🗣️ How understanding Mark as Peter’s case file can sharpen your evangelism and answers to skeptics You’ll see why Mark, as the earliest Gospel, rewrites the skeptic’s story about when the Gospels were written and how reliable they are. 👉 Want the full investigation?
