This week I thought I would clear up confusion about Jesus Christ and His ministry here on earth. It seems that some people (especially our young people) do not have the proper knowledge about the existence of Jesus.
What I mean by this is that some people think that Jesus was a “made up” fictional character. This is simply not the case. Now, this is not just me saying this, but practically every reputable scholar on the planet.
I think that we should be sure to inform our young people – who are often going off to secular colleges and have secular friends – that Jesus Christ is a real historical figure. There are many Non-Christian historical sources that attest to the existence of Jesus. Tacitus, Pliny the Younger, and Josephus just to name a few.
And there are also very, very few modern secular scholars who deny that Jesus existed. For the most part, they all agree, Jesus was a real and living historical figure.
There is plenty of evidence for Jesus existence, and, yes, there is also plenty of evidence for his divinity. I also hope that this quick article will give viewers the desire to seek further evidence of Jesus divinity, allowing them to come to the knowledge that Jesus was indeed the Son of God.
