Evidence That Demands A VERDICT

             In search of the truth, I found life. Researching this book has opened my eyes and my mind to understanding my faith. Through eyewitnesses and Biblical accounts, historical facts and archaeological findings, we can develop knowledge of our faith through substantial evidence. The historicity and the deity of Christ can be proved through all these different sources. These facts show us that Jesus Christ does exist and that His existence is as real today as it was then.
