Evidence for Christ (Digital)

Who was this man named Jesus? A prophet, maybe—or a fraud? Some say he was only a “wise teacher” whose followers later deified him. Still others think his very existence is a myth.

For Christians, he is the true Messiah: the one sent by God to fulfill Jewish prophecy and save the world from sin and death.

In Evidence for Christ, veteran apologist Jimmy Akin presents a full array of reasons to believe that Jesus is truly the Messiah—the Christ—building a step-by-step case that is both meticulous and exhilarating to follow. In it, you will examine:

• What it means to be the Messiah, according to Judeo-Christian tradition;
• The secular evidence affirming Jesus as a real historical person;
• A rich mosaic of messianic predictions in Scripture and Jewish literature, and how Jesus uniquely fulfills them all;
• How the Gospel accounts of Jesus’ life and works—especially his resurrection from the dead—validate his messianic identity and make him worthy of our belief and love

…and more fascinating signs from history and the Bible, all pointing to the authenticity of Jesus’ messiahship—and the truth of the Catholic faith!
