    The first three Gospels, and possibly also the fourth, were apparently written while the city of Jerusalem was still standing. Each of the first three Gospels contains predictions by Jesus concerning the destruction of Jerusalem and the Temple (Matthew 24; Mark 13; Luke 21), but none records the fulfillment. We know that Titus the Roman destroyed the city and Temple in A.D. 70. Hence, the composition of the first three Gospels most likely occurred sometime before this event, otherwise their destruction would have been recorded. The fact that all four gospels are written from the perspective that the city of Jerusalem and the temple had not been destroyed gives evidence of an early date.
    Does the document from before 70AD still exist? Could I look at it and read the words written on it 1950+ years ago?
    Today, I could write about my experiences at Ninian Park but that isn’t proof I wrote about it before it was knocked down.

    Many of the Dead Sea Scrolls date right back to 200BC, so there's no shortage of material to read if you are serious.

    Sure you could write about Ninian Park, but it's extremely unlikely that you would not include a comment about the CCS to give the reader a perspective from 2021.
