In this episode of the Ask A Christian Podcast, host Nate tackles big questions about biblical prophecy, manuscript evidence, and the reliability of Scripture—all while defending why "we've got answers" is perfectly acceptable English (despite what the grammar police might say). The conversation dives deep into Old Testament prophecies that point to Jesus as the Messiah, examining specific passages from Isaiah, Micah, Zechariah, and Psalms. How could one person fulfill 50+ concrete prophecies spanning centuries? We explore why these predictions couldn't have been orchestrated by humans and what makes Jesus' life, death, and resurrection historically unique. A Muslim caller challenges the authenticity of the New Testament manuscripts, leading to a robust discussion about textual variants, the Quran's compilation history, and why Christianity's transparent handling of manuscript evidence actually strengthens its credibility. We also address claims about Gospel authorship, dating, and why the fall of Jerusalem in 70 AD matters for Gospel reliability. Plus: Why claiming "any religion says they have the truth" misses the point, how personal testimony factors into knowledge claims, and whether Trump's healthcare policies make him a bad Christian (spoiler: that's not how faith works). Topics covered: Messianic prophecies and their fulfillment New Testament manuscript evidence vs Quran compilation Isaiah 53, Psalm 22, Micah 5, and other prophecies Gospel dating and authorship Christian epistemology and faith vs evidence Islam's claims about biblical corruption For more content, visit: https://www.askachristianpodcast.com TIMESTAMPS 00:00 - Intro and grammar lesson 07:45 - Do all religions claim to have the truth? 16:22 - Personal testimony vs empirical proof 23:02 - Trump healthcare policy debate 29:09 - Back to religious epistemology 32:00 - Sunni vs Shia and Christian denominational differences 36:00 - Who can know God's truth? 49:56 - Muslim caller questions Gospel authorship 54:24 - New Testament manuscript evidence 59:02 - Quran's burned manuscripts and textual variants 1:09:15 - Old Testament prophecies about the Messiah 1:18:06 - How prophecies prove Jesus is the Messiah 1:23:26 - Addressing Isaiah 6 and other prophecy claims 1:32:40 - Specific Messianic prophecies explained 1:35:05 - Zechariah 14 and future fulfillment 1:42:03 - Closing thoughts on evidence and belief HASHTAGS #AskAChristianPodcast #Christianity #BibleProphecy #MessianicProphecies #ChristianApologetics #IslamVsChristianity #OldTestament #Jesus #BiblicalProphecy #GospelTruth #ManuscriptEvidence #FaithAndEvidence #ReligiousDebate #ChristianFaith #Apologetics
