Revisiting post #42:

NOTE: There is consensus among historians and Christian theologians that Paul is the author of the First Epistle to the Corinthians (ca.53-54 AD). [Robert Wall, New Interpreter's Bible Vol. X (Abingdon Press, 2002), pp. 373]

“I can start with that basic confession of faith that Paul lays out in 1 Corinthians 15:3-5, a confession that was passed along to him by those who came before, as he himself states: ''For I delivered to over to you as of first importance what I also received, that Christ died for our sins in accordance with the scriptures, and that he was buried; and that he was raised on the third day in accordance with the scriptures ant that he appeared to Cephas and then to the twelve.''Post 42 [Ehrman, 'Did Jesus Exist, p.249]


However, in Galatians 1:11-12 [dated c.56 AD, F.F.Bruce, “Galatian Problems. 4. The Date of the Epistle,” Bulletin of the John Rylands Library 54 (Spring 1972): 251.] Paul very clearly contradicts Ehrman and admits that “11 For I want you to know, brothers and sisters, that the gospel that was proclaimed by me is not of human origin; 12 for I did not receive it from a human source, nor was I taught it, but I received it through a revelation of Jesus Christ.”

So Paul writing in c 56 AD is claiming that he got his information “not from human origin” and “I did not receive it from a human source, nor was I taught it, but I received it through a revelation of Jesus Christ."

Thus Paul says he did not get information from earlier Christians but instead from a revelation of Jesus Christ evidently before he wrote 1 Corinthians in (ca.53-54 AD).

Thus Paul himself is dismissing any “what are called pre-Pauline traditions”

And elsewhere Ehrman himself admits ''The Gospels are filled with nonhistorical material, accounts of events that could not have happened.'' (page 71-73)
