New Testament Manuscripts

Daniel B. Wallace: Seven Early New Testament Papyri Manuscripts Discovered
    The more manuscripts we discover, the more the Islamic claim that the Bible we have today was corrupted is silenced. When these texts are analyzed in full they will again confirm what Christians have already known: All Biblical manuscripts and fragments dated even hundreds of years before Mohammed are virtually identical to the canonized Biblical texts we have today.
  ...when Muhammad recited the Qur'an he clearly stated that he did not believe that the Bible was corrupt at that time and called upon Christians to adhere to the Scriptures that they possessed. But manuscript discoveries such as these beg the question: Since the Scriptures we have today are the same Scriptures that Christians had even well before the time of Mohammed, when do they believe the Bible became corrupted, who corrupted it, and how was it corrupted? The silence is deafening?

    On 1 February 2012, I [author of quote] debated Bart Ehrman at UNC Chapel Hill on whether we have the wording of the original New Testament today. This was our third such debate, and it was before a crowd of more than 1000 people. I mentioned that seven New Testament papyri had recently been discovered-six of them probably from the second century and one of them probably from the first. These fragments will be published in about a year.

He is also the founder and Executive Director of the Center for the Study of New Testament Manuscripts, that is digitizing all known manuscripts of the bible (by taking digital photographs).
