Christ is the Cure
A podcast bringing you theology, apologetics, and a resource for growth on the basis of scripture alone. This podcast is dedicated to bringing back interest in Christian theology, and the application of said theology. I hope this show will be a resource for Christians in terms of discipleship, growth, apologetics, and general theology. All episodes are grounded in the biblical worldview in accordance with the principle of sola scriptura. I hope that this proves to be fully grounded in scripture, and that it may be a blessing to you in your christian walk. Leave your thoughts, questions, or you can even leave topic ideas for future shows.

People of the Book pt. 2
Thursday Oct 20, 2022
Thursday Oct 20, 2022
In this weeks episode, part 2 of 2, I defend the thesis that Christians were people of the Bible in accordance with their historical and cultural context. While recognizing that Christians most likely didn’t have access to their own physical copy of the complete Bible, Christians certainly had access to the contents of the scriptures and relied heavily upon them for faith, life, and practice while devoting themselves to the instructions of the book.
In part 2 we discuss:
Jewish Communities and the Book
Christian Communities
The Distribution of Manuscripts
Early Christian Statements on Scripture
Conclusion
