Welcome to the My Redeemer Bookshelf. This site is designed to present our favorite Christian books. Most of these will be college level reading; some are college textbooks. We are putting these books here to fill a need to answer many difficult questions, asked by those who are searching for truth and haven't yet found satisfactory answers.
Evidence That Demands a Verdict, Volume 1, by Josh McDowell presents historical evidences for the Christian Faith. It primarily deals with three broad areas: (1) the trustworthiness of the Bible; (2) the person of Jesus; and (3) how GOD changed history and human lives.
Some of the most frequently voiced questions and objections which are answered in this volume are:
- The Bible is no different from any other book. [See chapters 1 and 4.]
- How can you trust the Bible when it wasn't officially accepted by the church until 350 years after the crucifixion of Jesus? [See chapter 3.]
- We don't have the original writings of the Bible authors; how do you know that what we have today was not changed from the originals? [See chapter 4.]
- How can you believe in Jesus when all we know about him comes from biased Christian writers? [See chapter 5.]
- Jesus never claimed to be the Messiah. [See chapter 9.]
- Jesus never claimed to be GOD. How can Christians claim that He is GOD? [See chapters 6-8.]
- How can Christians say Jesus rose bodily from the grave? There are lots of possible explanations. [See chapter 10.]
- The Bible predicts many events that are supposed to have happened in history. Have they? [See chapter 11.]
- So what if the Bible is true and Jesus is GOD? What difference does that make to me? [See chapter 12.]
There are answers - scholarly, intelligent, well-grounded answers. Answers backed by solid evidence. Answers that span over six thousand years of history. Answers which will satisfy anyone who is willing to honestly weigh the evidence.
