[Verse 1: Flame]

I can hear your questions homie

Is that book reliable?

Yes it is, the testaments are very verifiable

What do you believe in?

What do you abide by?

Maybe it's a mixture of different stuff

Tie-dye

You boys are all syncretists

Synching in your own thoughts

The book that I hold to

Cohesive and never off

Say my book carrying lies

But it's quite the contrary

Sixty-six holy scripts

It's more like a library

Written by forty authors in three different languages

English is not one them

Greek and Hebrew surely is

Inspired and inerrant

Whoa what does that mean

It's from God and without error in absolutely everything

Yeah it addresses class in session

Boy, I hope you learn somethin'

Heard them lies from other guys

Boy, I hope you turn from 'em

Why does it matter though?

If the Bible's false or true

Matter fact 'fore you answer that let me caution you

Don't play with epistemology

Homie we need absolutes

If there's no such thing as truth

Then he can do what he wanna do

She can do what she wanna do

And can't nobody say nothing

If a killer pull them choppers out and feel like spraying something

Can't nobody say it's wrong

And we all know that's a lie

Somebody outside of us

Has to speak and rectify

That's just what God did in the Christian holy book

Why don't you crack it open, sit down, take a look

[Spoken Bridge: Flame]

God is communicating with us, man

The Bible is the most thoroughly documented work of all antiquity

If we can't trust in the Bible, then we can't trust nothing

[Verse 2: Flame]

Let's go

Why they give my book a hard time?

Especially the New Testament

Bitextual variance

That's utterly irrelevant

To the proper understanding and translation of the text

Yes, with more manuscripts there are more variants

But the more the merrier

Homie this is not a threat

This is strong evidence

We possess the original text

Have these manuscripts

Different areas

Different times

But they all testify to the same text

Just blows my mind

God is so

Ain't no words to explain

How he preserved his Word through desert plains and heavy rains

But they try to tell us that the Bible's been corrupted

I say they are misinformed and they might as well cut it

See, Flame is 'bout to get deep

And I ain't talking scuba gear

I'm talking real scholarly

'Bout to bring some proof in here

P75, Codex Vaticanus

These are two manuscripts from Scriptures in the canon

And when I say canon I ain't talking about "boom"

But the collection of books that all function as the rule

Back to P75

It's from the second century

The other is from the fourth

Sorry for the history

One hundred fifty years these copies are separated

But it's so fascinating how they are so closely related

There is no team either

Controlling the transmission

Just God and His Holy Spirit

Looking out for His Christians
