Overview
"The Evidence for Jesus" by R. T. France is a comprehensive exploration of the historical data supporting the life and identity of Jesus Christ. This thought-provoking book addresses the most pressing questions about Jesus' existence and significance: Was Jesus merely a magical cult leader, a failed revolutionary, or a mythical figure invented by the apostle Paul? France examines archaeological evidence, non-Christian sources, and Christian writings—both within and outside of the New Testament—to offer a robust defense of the reliability of the Gospels and the historical Jesus.
With careful scholarship and an open, candid approach, R. T. France critically analyzes modern New Testament scholarship that challenges the biblical account and builds a compelling case for the authenticity of the New Testament's portrayal of Jesus. This book is an invaluable resource for anyone seeking to understand the historical foundation of Christianity or defending the truth of the Gospels.
