The world is a confusing place right now. We believe that faithful proclamation of the gospel is what our hostile and disoriented world needs. Do you believe that too? Help TGC bring biblical wisdom to the confusing issues across the world by making a gift to our international work.
My guest today is Don Carson, a research professor of New Testament at Trinity Evangelical Divinity School and president of The Gospel Coalition. We talk about the assurance of salvation.

But the Gospels are historically reliable. And the evidence for this is vast.
