Slandering Jesus: Six Lies People Tell about the Man Who Said He Was God (Hardcover)
by Erwin Lutzer (Author)
Book Description
Both skeptics and believers want the truth
about the man who claimed to be God. Renowned scholar Dr. Erwin Lutzer
provides the ultimate answers. Drawing on decades of rigorous Bible
study and teaching experience, he examines six widely-held beliefs
about Jesus Christ–untruths that have even infiltrated even the
church–and counters them with facts. The fabrications include:
- The family tomb of Jesus was discovered
- Jesus escaped the crucifixion
- Jesus wanted and needed Judas to betray him
- Jesus was just a man
- Jesus is one way among many to God
- Jesus has a dark secret
Using clear logic and historical evidence, Dr. Lutzer explains how
these lies sprouted and grew, gives readers deeper insight into the
true character and qualities of Jesus, and equips readers to identify
and expose lies that demean him.
From the Inside Flap
In a sincere but often misguided quest for meaning, both Christians and
religious seekers often accept only portions of Jesus’ life and
teaching, creating a tailor-made image of Jesus that seems just right
for them.
In Slandering Jesus, Dr. Erwin Lutzer uncovers
six of the most common attempts that have been made to reinvent Jesus
of Nazareth into an entirely new person . . . one much more in tune
with the times, one who is much easier for everyone to accept.
As Dr. Lutzer shows through historical evidence and thoughtful
insights, those who attempt to strip the Son of God of His divinity and
authority are guilty of slander. But he also reminds us of this
important truth: the real Jesus is greater than any attempt to reinvent Him.
