Investigating the Evidence of Jesus

Was Jesus real?


Many legitimate scholars believed Jesus was a historical figure who lived approximately 2000 years ago. They acknowledge His life, His charitable acts and His death. As recorded by the following historians

Cornelius Tacitus Roman History AD 112
Bishop of Antioch Ignatius AD 70 - 110
Clement of Alexandria AD 150 - 212

Many major religions recognize Jesus in one way or another.

Muslims - seen Him as a great prophet
Jewish - seen Him as a false teacher.
Buddhist - seen Him as an Enlightened one.


➽➽➽➽➽

Our very system of recording time, is revolved around the Life and Death of Jesus Christ 


 B.C. Before Christ


A.D. After Death {of Christ} 

➽➽➽➽➽

Well over 1000 prophecies in the Old Testament speak of a future Messiah, over a thousand years prior to the birth of Christ.

The name
 Jesus means - He will save His people from their sin.
Immanuel means - God is with us.

                     John 6:35 - I am the bread of life
                     John 8:12 - I am the light of the world
                     John 10:9 - I am the gate
                     John 10:11 - I am the good Shepard 
                 John 11:25 - I am the resurrection and the life

                     John 10:30 - The Father and I are one.

Old/New Testament Cross referencing scriptures


  • Shepard - Psalm 23:1        John 10:14-15
  • Light      - Isaiah 60:19      John 8:12
  • Lord       - Isaiah 45:6        John 13:13
  • Beginning and End
                - Isaiah 44:6       Revelation 1 :17-18

The Resurrection   Matthew 28:1-9,  Romans 10:9       

The disciples followed Jesus with uncertainty and many questions, doubts and fears... 

After the resurrection, seeing Jesus conquer death, 
they became confident, eager and willing to share the gospel to the service of dying for the Lord...
