How would you respond to someone who claims that the gospels we read today are likely different from what was originally written? list three or four reasons why we can trust that the words said by jesus 2,000 years ago were accurately recorded?

The first human author to make biblical record was Moses and it was written in Hebrew. One can argue that all the records in the Bible are not manipulated but they are all words by God which was written by pious men.

Bible rightly foretold the events that would happen in the future. We could find in the Old Testament the perfect place and lineage of Jesus birth. There are archaeological evidences to prove the historical reliability of the Bible. Jesus Archaeologist while excavating the Mediterranean sea found the limestone block of Pontius Pilate who oversaw Jesus trial. Jesus was crucified with nails when many people said it was not the way men were crucified those days archaeologists have now discovered victims bone ossuaries which had bones of men where nails were driven through the heels.

164 kids

165 adults

step-by-step explanation:

first you need to make two equations

kids = x

adults = y

first equation = x+y=329

second equation = 1.5x + 4y = 906

solve by substitution

x = 329 - y

1.5 (329 - y) + 4 y = 906

493.5 - 1.5y + 4y = 906

combine like terms

2.5y = 412.5

y = 165

plug back into one of the equations

x + 165 = 329

x = 164
