Abstract
For too long conservative Christians have been defensive about their stand on God's Word, according to evangelical German Bible scholar Eta Linnemann. It is time to put modern Bible critics on trial--judging their claims of scientific objectivity in biblical studies. The fascination with historical-critical theology, to which many evangelicals have more or less succumbed, lies in its claim to be scientific, observes Linnemann. We are taught to respect scientific results. But what goes unnoticed is that many of these 'results' are nothing more than unproven hypotheses that are trumpeted to be facts once they have found broad agreement.
