Jessica's Test Respond

People who read the Gospels assume that these books tell stories about Jesus simply as they happened. But is that true?

How does the text answer the question, "Is that true"?

I think it is not, because the Gospels were written by the apostles.  It is for sure that they had different ways to see things or different ways to retell Jesus' acts and besides, no electronic device was used back then to record the facts, so everything was based on memories, myths and legends.

Also, there were untold stories that may have been or may not have been incorporated to the Gospels.  Therefore, believers who read the Gospels can assume everything is as true as they can be, but actually after many years of retelling and rewriting of the scripts, there is the least possibility that everything written in the Bible is 100% true.

Do you agree with the text? Why, or why not?

Yes, I do, because so many people assume this.  Believers think that it is a sin to modify a part of the Bible because they think it will corrupt their faith. So in a particular religious point of view, all the Gospels have to be 100% true because God protects writings concerning about him.  But surely, Jesus' life stories have to be been altered in some way.  The Gospels were transmitted by oral resources so definitely it has to have to been changed in a way.
