The quotations are so numerous and widespread that, if no manuscripts of the New Testament were extant, the New Testament could be reproduced from the writings of the early Fathers alone.
Geisler, 1986
Indeed, so extensive are these citations that, if all other sources for our knowledge of the text of the New Testament were destroyed, they would be sufficient alone for the reconstruction of practically the entire New Testament.
Bruce Metzger, 1992

What is life? is it just a bunch of chemicals all coincidentally mixed together to create functioning creatures like you and me? Or does it demonstrate prethought, information, design?

Continuing from our last discussion, I would like to briefly describe another research experience related to this particular interest, passion, or whatever it may be called; that is: the study of the reliability of Scripture. In McDowell’s book, New Evidences, a one-line reference to the unpublished works of someone called “Dean Bergen”, that contains 86,489 New Testament quotes by early church fathers, now resident at the British Library, intrigued me.
I got an opportunity to look for this work at the British Library in London. I found no Dean Bergen. But I did eventually find John William Bergen, Dean of Chichester. He was a 19th century, multi-lingual scholar and a prolific writer. But I didn’t find these unpublished works until I thought to look in the manuscripts room. One has to be interviewed and cleared to do this, and so I went through the process, received my license, and went upstairs to the manuscripts area. There I was able to review these hand-written volumes, categorized by the names of ancient Christian writers.

A number of years ago I was on a personal retreat and picked up and read a sixteenth century book by John Foxe entitled “Foxe’s Book of Martyrs”. The title explains its content, a documentation of Christian Martyrs from the Book of Acts through to close to his own death in 1587. I found it interesting, moving, and it seemed well researched. I noticed the mention of some people living in the early centuries AD that I was not familiar with. But they were mentioned by Foxe without introduction, as if the reader was expected to know who they were. I was curious and no more. About two weeks previous to this retreat a friend had asked me to review and give an opinion about a book by James Kennedy called “Why I Believe”, and recalled that I had seen some of those names mentioned in Kennedy’s book. Well, I had also taken that book with me to my personal retreat.

Last time I began presenting some testimonies by experts and researchers in various fields, all of which demonstrate that, no matter from what perspective you come, the Scriptures shine.
As mentioned previously, if you are looking for accuracy in Scripture, you will not be disappointed. Jack Cuozzo, an orthodontist, choosing to believe the Biblical account of mankind’s origins rather than that of materialists, was able to shed light on the Neanderthal controversy by x-ray photographing original fossil skulls. His conclusions are exciting, though no surprise to the Bible-believer. His account “Buried Alive” reads more like a James Bond diary than any dry research paper.
Dr. Steve Austin, geologist, said of himself that he used to be somewhat confused about the processes that formed the geologic structures of the earth. But after his research into blow holes and Spirit Lake following the eruptions of Mt. St. Helens, he was able to unlock mysteries previously unknown about Noah’s flood and catastrophism in general.
