I am a young Christian - not looking for proof of Christ's existence - I rely on my own faith in that - but in the hope of finding evidence I can offer to those who ask how I know He lived.
In response 3 to Meditation 38 the writer illustrates the point that myths have grown up around JFK and Elvis: that they did not die but live on. This is because:
- they existed
- their deeds made them famous
Surely, therefore, this illustration supports what was written about the life of Christ.
For evidence (not proof) consider this:
- His mother watched Him die when all she had to do to save him was retract her claim that He was the Son of God. What mother could do that?
- Their transformation from cowardly, denying disciples to Goliaths of bravery.
- Paul's complete volte face from zealous prosecutor of His followers to His most zealous servant.
