The interview has been chopped up into smaller bits each around\u00a04 to\u00a08 minutes long.<\/p>\n<p>The interviewer was well prepared and asked excellent questions. He interacted with Don&#8217;s areas of expertise (the\u00a0rabbinic model\u00a0of oral tradition, the Gospel of Matthew, the apostolic fathers) and\u00a0proposed questions that gave him an opportunity to answer common\u00a0skeptical\u00a0objections to\u00a0the historicity of Jesus and the Gospels.<\/p>\n<p>It will be evident, as you watch the interview, that Don does not\u00a0subscribe to\u00a0a doctrine of inerrancy such as that enshrined in the Chicago Statement. And yet he adopts a believing posture toward the New Testament as historically reliable and apostolic in origin.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.publicchristianity.com\/hagnervids.html\" target=\"_blank\">Here<\/a> are the video links below:<\/p>\n<blockquote><p><strong>The apostle Paul: redneck or revolutionary?<br \/>\n<\/strong>How should we view the apostle Paul?<strong> <\/strong><a href=\"http:\/\/www.publicchristianity.com\/Videos\/hagner1.html\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.publicchristianity.com\/images_mediatypes\/type_rh_video.gif\" border=\"0\" alt=\"\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><strong>Doubts about Jesus and the New Testament<br \/>\n<\/strong>Is the existence of Jesus in doubt? <a href=\"http:\/\/www.publicchristianity.com\/Videos\/hagner2.html\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.publicchristianity.com\/images_mediatypes\/type_rh_video.gif\" border=\"0\" alt=\"\" \/><\/a><br \/>\n<strong><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>History and faith<br \/>\n<\/strong>How does the Christian historian avoid<br \/>\nbeing a Christian apologist? <a href=\"http:\/\/www.publicchristianity.com\/Videos\/hagner4.html\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.publicchristianity.com\/images_mediatypes\/type_rh_video.gif\" border=\"0\" alt=\"\" \/><\/a><strong><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>Sources behind the gospels<br \/>\n<\/strong>Does the use of sources by the gospel<br \/>\nwriters make their texts suspicious?\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/www.publicchristianity.com\/Videos\/hagner6.html\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.publicchristianity.com\/images_mediatypes\/type_rh_video.gif\" border=\"0\" alt=\"\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><strong>Gospel of Matthew exposed.
