The Post Resurrection Fame of Jesus

After Jesus’ resurrection His new followers soon started preaching the message of forgiveness of sin through His sacrifice. At first, they declared this good news, known as the gospel, that quickly became known as the Way (see Acts 9:2; Acts 19:9; Acts 19:23; Acts 24:22) and expanded rapidly. This was the beginning of the New Testament church. They were first called Christians in Antioch. (Acts 11:26)

 

 

The latest edition of the Encyclopedia Britannica devotes twenty thousand words to the person known as Jesus, and never once suggest that He did not exist. This is more words, by the way, than are given to Aristotle, Alexander the great, Julius Caesar, or Napoleon

Bonaparte.

 

There is overwhelming evidence for the existence of Jesus Christ, recorded in both secular and biblical history. Perhaps the greatest evidence that Jesus did exist is the fact that literally thousands of Christians in the first century A.D., including the twelve apostles, were willing to give their lives as martyrs for Jesus The Christ(The Messiah). People will die for what they believe and or know to be true, but no one will die for what they know or believe to be a lie.

SPECIAL NOTE:

Official Roman records that a baby boy named Jesus was born on December25 A0 and the Soldier verified that he died and he died as a result of being crucified and was buried in the tomb. Of Joseph of Arimathea and no body has been found in that tomb after many searcher for it . The Pharisees tried to bribe the guards to say that His disciples came by night and stole the body.

Many False doctrines have been circulated about his value to Salvation but Apostle Peter sums it up in Acts 4:12 Read it and follow thru. Thousands have believed and follow Him DAILY
