05/29/2023

For centuries, Old Testament scholars and historians believed King David was not a historical figure but part of Israelite folklore. Prominent archaeologist Dorothy Irvin states, “Of these narratives [Davidic lore] as well as all the narratives of the Pentateuch, the historical problem is not so much that they are historically unverifiable, and especially not that they are untrue historically, but that they are radically irrelevant as sources of Israel’s history.” Is there evidence for Israel’s greatest king or is his story folklore? At a conference hosted by the Waialae Baptist Church, Pat presented new archaeological discoveries that affirm a histor...

Episode 894 – 2021 Waterhouse Lecture Series – Who Wrote the Pentateuch? Session 4 Pt 3
05/24/2023

Jesus and the Apostles state that Moses is the author of the first five books of the Old Testament. However, most Old Testament scholars teach that the evidence clearly shows, Moses could not have written the Pentateuch and that it was written hundreds of years after Moses in the 8th century BC. If this is the case, it would put the credibility of the Jesus and the New Testament into question. At a recent conference hosted by the Waialae Baptist Church Pat addressed the challenges of the Wellhausen theory and presented the case for Mosaic authorship of the Pentateuch.

Who wrote the first 5 books of the Bible? The Bible and Jesus teach that Moses is the author of the Pentateuch. However, most Old Testament scholars teach that the Pentateuch was written in the 8th Century BC by four priestly schools who created a mythical history for the Israelites.

Join Pat as he addresses the challenges of the Documentary Hypothesis, one of the most influential theories dominating our colleges and seminaries today and see if there is evidence for Mosaic authorship of the Old Testament.


Episode 892 – 2021 Waterhouse Lecture Series – Who Wrote the Pentateuch? Session 4 Pt 1

The Bible teaches that Moses wrote the first five books of the Old Testament. However, in the 19th century, Julius Wellhausen introduced the Documentary Hypothesis and many scholars believe, conclusively proved Mosaic authorship of the Pentateuch was false. This theory is one of the most influential theories taught in colleges and seminaries and has destroyed the faith of many Christians around the world. At a conference hosted by the Waialae Baptist Church, Pat examined this theory and presented a case for the Mosaic authorship of the Pentateuch.

Episode 890 – 2021 Waterhouse Lecture Series – Examining the Exodus Session 3 Pt 1
05/18/2023

Is the Exodus historical? Critics argue that the evidence reveals the Exodus is folklore. Critics argue that there are no extra biblical records for the Exodus in Egypt or the Near East. They also argue that the archaeological data of Canaan does not match up with the Exodus. Critics state that there is no record of the Hebrews in the Egyptian records and that the plagues would have decimated Egypt but this is never mentioned in Egyptian records. It seems the case against the Exodus is Overwhelming. At a recent conference hosted by the Waialae Baptist Church in Honolulu, Hawaii...

05/16/2023

The Exodus is one of the most important events in biblical history. However, most archaeologists and Old Testament scholars believe the Exodus is folklore. One of the most prominent Old Testament Archaeologists, Israel Finkelstein states, “Combination of archaeological and historical research demonstrates that the biblical account of the Conquest and occupation of Canaan [by the Israelites] is entirely divorced from historical reality.” Is there evidence of the Exodus and Joshua’s conquest of Canaan? Join Pat as he examines the evidence for the Exodus. Listen to a presentation he recently gave at the Waialae Baptist Church in Honolulu, Hawaii.
