Yesus Kristus, Sajarah Maker

Over the years many people have tried to question the historical facts concerning Jesus. People often write books about Jesus. Some books make dramatic claims. They say, “This is the truth about Jesus.” These books often contradict the New Testament texts. So many people think that the story of Jesus is not real history. Many who oppose Christianity try to make a big fuss about this. Some even say, “Jesus never existed.”

The critics are wrong. Almost any serious historian of that era knows this. The gospel accounts are well supported by extensive historical evidence. These pages will help you to review this evidence for yourself.

Obviously, your own interests will determine which questions are most important to you. So we have organized this information so that you can pick the issues that interest you. You can also choose how much detail you want to examine.

The content is arranged using the following general topics:

The authenticity of the Christian texts.

Can we trust the sacred Christian texts? Bukti kanggo keaslian teks kasebut luwih gedhe tinimbang dokumen penting liyane kanthi umur sing padha.

The integrity of the witnesses.

Should we believe what the gospel writers say? Some people say that they invented parts of their story. Did they? Or were they honestly reporting what they had seen and heard?

Corroboration saka Sumber Non-Kristen.

Non-Christians will not say that Jesus came back from the dead. But this section looks at the available evidence. It is exactly the kind of evidence that we should expect to find.

Punapa Yesus Banget Die?

Some suggest that Jesus didn’t really die on the cross. But is this suggestion consistent with the evidence? We examine the details of Jesus’ crucifixion. We also examine the circumstances of Jesus’ burial.

Laporan Wungune

Takes a close look at the accounts of the resurrection morning. Are these genuine eyewitness reports? Or are they later inventions?

The Resurrection Reports – Continued.

Jesus appeared to his disciples many times after this. This section examines those occasions. Was Jesus’ body brought back to life?

Ing ngisor Line.

How should we react to this?

Hey! What about me?

We don’t want this to be a purely one-sided presentation of the case for Christianity. So we’ve tried to make the discussion more interesting. We would like to introduce our resident heckler and skeptic – Ivan I. Deer. (If you speak his name in English it sounds like, “I’ve an idea!”). For further discussion, click Ivan’s comments.

Much of the information presented here is not my original research. It draws upon many sources: books, articles, documentaries, personal correspondence, internet, lsp. It would be impossible to document all of them. And it would not be very fair to only name a few. Eventually, we hope to provide a list of recommended sources.

These pages are still under development. There is a lot left to do. They have been put on-line now, in the hope of obtaining useful feed-back. But progress is slow. There is not enough time. But there is a lot of information that must be organized. We apologize because many bibliographical references and links to other sites are still missing. Please tell us if you are in need of a missing reference. This will help us set priorities for future work. Sayange, we may not have time to assist your enquiry. (Otherwise we may never finish this task!) But we will try to respond to your message.
