The Resurrection Of Jesus Christ: A Refresher Course In Evidence

Contributed by Donald Whitchard on Jan 10, 2023

The Scriptures tell of the event of the resurrection of Jesus Christ as being an undeniable historical fact with eyewitness and secondary evidence to back it that would be admissible in any objective court of law. This is no case of wishful thinking, but the conclusion of a promise kept.

If we were to present the case for the resurrection of Jesus Christ in a court of law, we would have to first refute the notion or belief that this was nothing more than "faith" on the part of the apostles and all who have followed Him throughout history. I have pointed out in a recent ...read more

The Personification Of Truth Vs. The Pettiness Of Skepticism

Contributed by Donald Whitchard on Apr 24, 2022

The drama of redemption continued as the Lord Jesus, having faced an illegal trial by the religious authorities of Israel, now faced the representative of political authority in Israel, Pontius Pilate, and the conversation he had with the true Authority.

John 18:28-40 records the probable final conversation that the Lord Jesus has with another person before he was led off to be crucified.
