By Paul Barnett

In this comprehensive and brilliantly argued book, Barnett takes the new atheists head on.
He recognises that their strategy is to destroy the credibility of the Gospels, so he destroys their arguments instead. The great thing about the book is that it doesn’t brush hard issues under the carpet. He accepts, for example, that Luke may have got the dates wrong when he mentions Theudas’s insurrection in Acts 5, but then he shows in detail how that was because the source he was using contained an error.
