Guest host Adam McManus [www.AdamMcManus.net] chats with Dr. Gary Crossland, a Bible translator, Greek scholar and Israel tour leader, about his 363-page book “The Merged Gospels.” [www.MergedGospels.com] Unlike typical Gospel harmonies, which only compare blocks of texts between the Gospels, “The Merged Gospels” breaks all four Gospels down WORD-BY-WORD. It is the first book in history to literally translate the Gospels from the Greek language, merging all of them together into one flowing, chronological narrative, extracting only the duplicated content. Not one word of Scripture has been removed, and all major differences between the Gospels have been highlighted.  Look at a sample: http://mergedgospels.com/Merged_Gospels_Sample.pdf

In addition, Dr. Crossland took 7 trips to Israel during which he literally retraced the steps of Jesus through all 94 geographic sites referred to in the Gospels -- a huge undertaking! Watch this 7-minute video which will give you a taste for the meticulous research and the time he invested into the project: http://mergedgospels.com/MG/BookPromoVideo.html You’ll see why I call him the Christian Indiana Jones.

Available both as a book and as an audiobook (7 CD’s) with 183 different scores as musical beds at http://mergedgospels.com/MG/Book-And-Audio-Book2.html, you’ll learn about the 5 benefits to reading The Merged Gospels.

Finally, they spend significant time exploring Dr. Crossland’s 30-minute documentary entitled “The Gospels: Fact or Fiction” in which he discusses 5 out of 10 reasons why you should never doubt that everything that appears in the Gospels is indeed historically accurate. http://mergedgospels.com/MG/FactOrFictionVideo.html

Dr. Crossland earned his Master of Arts and Biblical Languages from the Assemblies of God Theological Seminary in Springfield, Missouri and his doctorate at Masters International School of Divinity in Evansville, Indiana.
