On This Rock: What People Really Believed About Jesus Christ in the Early Church... and Why it Matters

What did people living in the time of Jesus really believe and say about him? Is he the Christ, the promised Savior? Did he really die and then rise from the dead?

This book answers these questions by examining the New Testament's record of Jesus, looking at Old Testament prophecies concerning the Christ, and exploring the writings of early Christian and non-Christian authorities. The Christian faith stands or falls depending on whether or not the events described in the New Testament really occurred, and this book provides the needed background to understanding the truth of the Biblical account of Jesus Christ.
