The Evidence for the Historical Jesus – Updated Edition - Episode 2

March 26, 2021

Dr. Gary Habermas is the world’s leading authority on the evidence for the resurrection of Jesus Christ. In his research, he has proposed 12 historical facts about Jesus that are undeniable—even to the most skeptical historians.

In our newly-updated series “The Evidence for the Historical Jesus” we’ll look at these 12 facts, along with the biblical information you need to strengthen your faith. Some the questions we will consider include:

· How many people gave eyewitness testimony that they saw Jesus alive after he was killed by crucifixion?
· What historical information was in circulation about Jesus’ resurrection within the first two years of Christianity—possibly even before Paul met Jesus on the road to Damascus?
· How can we know Jesus claimed to be the Son of God while He lived on earth?
· What historical evidence supports the death, burial, and the resurrection of Jesus from the grave on the third day?
· What historical evidence exists for the many post-resurrection appearances of Jesus?
· What is the strongest evidence for believing the disciples really saw the risen Jesus?

In these six information-packed programs, we’ll discuss these and many other important questions concerning the evidence for the historical Jesus.

A debate over the case for Christianity. What historical facts about Jesus' life, agreed to by virtually all critical scholars, lead to the conclusion that Jesus actually rose from the dead? Did the disciples have hallucinations of Jesus rather than actually see Him? Was Jesus' resurrection body merely a spiritual body (a ghost-like, wispy, see-through, non-material body) or a real physical body? Did Jesus claim to be God? What factual evidence today inclines us to believe miracles (like the resurrection) are possible?

In God’s Help When You Suffer, guests Joni Eareckson Tada and Dr. Michael Easley share from personal experience and Scripture how God offers strength during times of pain, illness, and disability. Most of us will face three stages of suffering in life—diagnosis, duration, and death. In this series, we learn how God would have us to respond when we first learn tragic news regarding our health, life’s problems, or the life of a loved one. As we do, we’ll see both biblical and practical principles for how to faithfully endure pain in our own lives. We’ll also find insight on helping those around us who suffer in a way that reflects the teachings of God’s Word.
