coolit_ Aug 8th 2012, 04:42pmWhy Believe in Jesus
Christ?
"EVEN many people who
are not Christians
believe that He was a
great and wise teacher.
He was certainly one of
the most influential
people who ever
lived." (The World Book
Encyclopedia) Who is
"He"? Jesus Christ, the
founder of Christianity.
In spite of what the
encyclopedia says,
however, to hundreds of
millions of people in the
Orient and elsewhere,
Jesus Christ is a stranger,
just a name they may
remember from high-
school textbooks. Even in
the churches of
Christendom, there are
theologians and
clergymen who say that
we really do not know
Jesus and cast doubt on
the genuineness of the
four extant accounts of
his life (the Gospels)
found in the Bible.
Could the Gospel writers
have forged the life story
of Jesus? Not at all! The
well-known historian Will
Durant, after analyzing
those Gospel accounts,
wrote: "That a few
simple men should in one
generation have
invented so powerful and
appealing a personality,
so lofty an ethic and so
inspiring a vision of
human brotherhood,
would be a miracle far
more incredible than any
recorded in the Gospels.
After two centuries of
Higher Criticism the
outlines of the life,
character, and teaching
of Christ, remain
reasonably clear, and
constitute the most
fascinating feature in the
history of Western man."
Still, there are those who
would dismiss Jesus
Christ as unworthy of
their attention because
of what his professed
followers have done.
'They dropped an atom
bomb on Nagasaki,' some
in Japan would say. 'And
Nagasaki had more
Christians than most
cities in Japan.' But can
you blame a physician for
a patient's illness if the
patient fails to follow the
doctor's guidance? Most
people claiming to be
Christians have long
ignored Jesus'
prescription for
overcoming mankind's
ills. Yet, Jesus gave the
remedy for our day-to-
day problems as well as
for the afflictions of
mankind worldwide.
