In his book Jesus, Interrupted Bart Ehrman presents what he feels are contradictory views about Jesus and the significance of his life as it is written in the New Testament. Ehrman’s fundamental message is that the historical matter of the Bible contains many errors and contradictions between each of the books of the gospel. He argues that the writers disagree with each other both historically and theologically and that these differences prove that the Bible cannot be trusted. Another concern that Ehrman has is that the average Christian believer knows little or nothing about textural criticism of the Bible because their pastors refuses to show them these discrepancies by keeping them a secret as if to say that there is a conspiracy theory
