How Christianity Survived Before the New Testament (30-90 AD)

How did Christianity spread across the Roman Empire for sixty years without a complete New Testament? Between 30 and 90 AD, believers had no bound volumes, no printing presses, and most owned no written texts at all. This documentary reconstructs how the faith was taught, remembered, and transmitted during those critical first decades. What You Will Learn : This video examines the historical evidence for oral teaching methods, apostolic eyewitness authority, the circulation of Paul's letters, public reading in house churches, manuscript copying practices, doctrinal disputes, and the gradual loss of the eyewitness generation. You'll see how communities in Jerusalem, Antioch, Corinth, Ephesus, and Rome functioned through memorized formulas, traveling messengers, and carefully preserved apostolic correspondence. The documentary follows the transition from living apostolic presence to written apostolic texts—a shift forced by mortality, not planning. Method & Tone Statement This is an evidence-based historical reconstruction using Acts, Paul's letters, and early Christian writings.
