Question 2: What Evidence is There That Jesus Was a Real Person?
Manage episode 381143103 series 3523191
Welcome back to Eternal Life, the podcast exploring the life of Christ through seven questions that hard-core Christians and anyone who may find it difficult to believe in the miracles of God should ask. Today we delve into question number two: Was Jesus a real person? This is a simple question but a very important one for Christians to explore because ultimately, if there was no Jesus, then there could be no Christianity.
Before we question if Jesus was the son of God, if He did truly have powers of healing, or if Heaven exists, we need to figure out if He was actually a real person. There are three different types of corroboration that prove Jesus’ existence: historical documentation, archeology, and prophetic predictions. Whether Jesus was the son of God comes down to a decision of faith but after this exploration of evidence, it is clear, that the question of his existence has been corroborated a million times over!
- What historical documents corroborate the existence of Christ and why we can believe that they are true.
- Archeological facts suggesting that the Bible is historically accurate and therefore a trustworthy source of fact.
- Who wrote the gospels and how they help us accept the Bible as a source of truth.
- How the minor discrepancies in the Bible make it easier to trust, believe it or not!
