The author of one of the four Gospels and the book of Acts mentions Gallio, proconsul of Achaia, a detail found in the letter of a Roman emperor. The confirmation of this minor detail in the text demonstrates the extreme accuracy and reliability of Luke's writings. The location of the Holy Sepulchre in Jerusalem, combined with a text by the first-century historian Flavius Josephus, indicate that the Gospels were written well before 70 - and are therefore trustworthy factual reports!
