“For God so loved the world He gave His only Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have eternal life.” John chapter 3 verse 16, The Bible
Why Believe in Jesus Christ?
If Jesus Christ lived, died and rose again bodily, then the Bible is true. Full stop, end of story, no arguments. If the Bible is true then your decision as to whether or not you are willing to confess your sins, and trust in Jesus for salvation, and follow Him, will make the difference between whether you spend eternity in the presence of God or outside His presence in the place the Bible calls Hell.
So, the question as to whether the Bible is true or not is the most important question you will ever need to find the answer to. Let’s look, then, at the evidence for the life, death and bodily resurrection of Jesus. Many of the early quotes on this page are taken from the Student Edition of The Case for Christ written by Lee Strobel (quotes in blue). Just to introduce him, he used to be an award winning legal journalist with the Chicago Tribune, but he became a Christian after investigating the evidence for the life, death and bodily resurrection of Jesus, and is now a teaching pastor. The Case for Christ is the book he wrote laying out the evidence that he uncovered.
If you are not yet a believer your decision about how to respond to Jesus Christ will make the decision about your eternal destiny. This really matters, so please read on by clicking on one of the links below …
What are you going to decide about Jesus?
No-one could deny that the evidence for the resurrection is compelling. The above narrative gives the example of three men who set out to disprove the truth of the Bible message, and ended up proving it so conclusively that they themselves became Christians:
Lee Strobel, a former legal journalist whose investigations into the evidence are detailed in his book The Case for Christ
Frank Morrison, an English journalist whose investigations into the evidence are detailed in his book Who Moved the Stone?
Sir William Ramsay, who could only find archaeological evidence that proved the accuracy of the Acts of the Apostles in the Bible, written by Luke, who also wrote one of Jesus’ biographies found in the Bible.
Are you willing to take the time to read The Case for Christ or Who Moved the Stone? for yourself?
Are you willing to read one of the gospels for yourself?
If what the Bible says is true then the decision you make about Jesus will decide where you spend eternity.
What could be more important than that?
