When was the Gospel of Luke really written? And what if the church has the entire story backwards? The traditional narrative says that Marcion, a second-century figure condemned as a heretic, took the Gospel of Luke and cut it down to fit his theology. But what if it happened the other way around? Scholar Dr. Markus Vinzent joins Derek Lambert (MythVision Podcast) to present the evidence that the shorter Marcionite Gospel came first, and that the author of Luke/Acts expanded it into the texts we know today. If Vinzent is right, Luke and Acts are second-century compositions, not first-century eyewitness-adjacent documents. That changes everything about how we understand the origins of Christianity, the formation of the New Testament canon, and the reliability of Acts as a historical source. We go through the textual evidence, the manuscript tradition, the theological motivations, and why the traditional dating is crumbling under scholarly scrutiny. This is the conversation the church does not want you to hear.
