00:00So I said, what I've given you is only a selected one, otherwise it will be here for hours, and
00:05you need to bring your sleeping bag.
00:07So we give you explicit verses from John himself, which imply, which mean, not imply, but mean, that Jesus, peace
00:16be upon him, is definitely a man.
00:18He can do nothing of himself. He is not God.
00:22Whereas the sole verse you take out, it's not an explicit, and it most certainly does not mean.
00:30I mean that. Now, there are a couple of problems with the Gospel of John for our Christian brothers and
00:36sisters.
00:37These problems are severe, to be honest, they really are severe.
00:42Now, we'll start with the Markan. There are two. We'll just take two of them.
00:49We start with the Markan priority.
00:52The Markan priority refers to the historical sequence when the Gospels, when the four Gospels were written.
01:01Now, the Markan priority is the analysis of Christian scholars throughout, I don't know, the last two, three hundred years
01:09or longer.
01:11I think the Germans have a very big contribution.
01:15For the last two, three hundred years, Germans have very big contributions into this Markan priority as well.
01:21But they're not the only ones.
01:23Today's the ones who do the most work, to be honest, are the Americans today, more than Europeans, in the
01:31study of the Bible.
01:33So, the Markan priority implies a historical sequence, and there is, you could safely say there is virtually unanimous agreement.
01:43You find extremely few people who may say this is not correct, and they cannot substantiate their view anyway.
01:50But very, very few, if any, you know, but there is virtually, it's unanimous, the scholars are unanimous over the
02:00fact that Mark, the Gospel of Mark, was the first Gospel which was written,
02:06followed by Matthew and Luke, who predominantly copied from Mark, and then followed by John, which is the last of
02:15the four Gospels, the very last.
02:17Maybe space it by 20 or 30 years after Matthew and Luke.
02:24So, it's the last one.
02:26Now, this is why I say this is a huge problem for Christian brothers and sisters.
02:31Why?
02:32It's because before Abraham was, I am, it's only found in John, and John is the last one.
02:39The last one means he's the further from the source, which is, I would say, Jesus, peace be upon him.
02:45He's the further from the source.
02:48Historically, he's the later, he's the last one.
02:51And it's three in the Gospel of Matthew, Mark, and Luke, they do not exist.
02:58And yet, I do not want to move this subject to other subjects, but I'll very briefly mention something so
03:04that you understand how severe the case is.
03:07Because I can see some of our Christian brothers and sisters will be dying to bring other verses.
03:12All the verses you bring are from John, when you try and prove that Jesus is God, or the divinity,
03:20try and prove the divinity of Jesus, peace be upon him.
03:22So, you say, for instance, in the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word
03:29was God.
03:29For instance, and I, if you say, I went to the end of the verse.
03:33For instance, the Word, and the Word, and the Word, and the Word, and the Word.
