Practical Apologetics: Clear Answers for the Every... - Episode 7: Is Jesus God?
Published 7 months, 2 weeks ago
Description
Is Jesus just a good teacher… or is He God?
In this episode, we examine one of the most important questions in all of Christianity. If Jesus is not God, then Christianity falls apart. But if He is, then everything changes.
We walk through a cumulative case for the deity of Christ by examining the reliability of the New Testament, the claims and actions of Jesus, His acceptance of worship, and the resurrection as God’s validation of His identity.
