Christthesis
The Christthesis

The case for Christ is more compelling than the alternative.

Most people never examine the evidence; they inherit a verdict. Nietzsche pronounced it for the modern age: "God is dead. God remains dead. And we have killed him. How shall we comfort ourselves, the murderers of all murderers?". Has modern science actually disproven God? No. Not even close.

An open case, still being written.
The Argument

The case, climbed one step at a time.

You do not have to accept it all at once. Each rung stands on the one before it. Start wherever your honest doubt begins.

I

Who or what created the universe?

The confident modern answer, no one and by chance, is aging badly. The constants that run the universe are set so finely that the odds of a life-permitting cosmos arising at random are astronomically small. Physicists call it fine-tuning. The materialist alternatives, countless unseen universes or something from nothing, ask for as much faith as anything they replace. The old certainty that the world simply happened has quietly come undone.

II

If there is a God, which one?

Grant that the universe was made, and you have crossed a line most people never cross, because of what it implies. Then the question is unavoidable: which God? The field narrows fast. One is corroborated by history and claimed, in different ways, by the three largest faiths on earth: the God of Abraham, Yahweh. Judaism, Christianity, and Islam all trace back to the same source.

III

What evidence exists? A lifetime's worth.

And the clearest evidence of Yahweh is a single life: the only sinless man ever to walk the earth, Jesus Christ, Yeshua HaMashiach, the Messiah, the only begotten Son. Predicted centuries in advance, documented, cited, cross-referenced by friend and foe, and risen. The full case runs through the rest of this site.

IV

Atheism is the least intelligent, and the funniest, option.

To say with certainty that there is no God, you would have to know everything, to have searched the whole of reality and found Him nowhere. That is not humility; it is a claim to omniscience. And the story it rests on, that everything came from nothing, for no reason, and arranged itself into minds able to doubt it, asks more of your credulity than faith ever has. Remove Abraham's God, and the other religions fall away with Him.

V

Belief is what matters. In Him.

Strip God from the picture and the things we cannot live without go with Him: truth collapses into opinion, morality into preference, and science loses the ordered, intelligible universe that makes it possible. Every thread, the documented life, the artifacts, the archaeology, the geography, the prophecies fulfilled, the external sources, pulls toward one place. To Jesus Christ.

Did You Know

The strongest case is an honest one.

Here is what you have been told, and what the fuller history actually shows.

The Claim"The Crusades prove Christianity is inherently violent."
The Fuller PictureA complex, centuries-long response to prior conquest, as much political as religious, and poorly explained by Christian teaching itself, which is far better known for the hospitals, universities, and abolition movements it produced. A placeholder, to be sourced and expanded.
The Claim"Christianity is the enemy of science."
The Fuller PictureThe founders of modern science, Newton, Kepler, Boyle, Faraday, Maxwell, Mendel, were overwhelmingly Christian, and many said their faith drove the work. The "warfare" narrative is a 19th-century invention historians have largely abandoned. See the directory above.
The Claim"There is no evidence Jesus even existed."
The Fuller PictureVirtually no professional historian holds this, including outspoken skeptics like Bart Ehrman. Non-Christian sources within a century, Tacitus, Josephus, Pliny, reference him. The debate is who he was, not whether.
Considered

Popular claims, weighed honestly.

Some claims are fascinating but contested, or promoted by a few and doubted by many, including believers. Rather than hide them or pass them off as settled, they live here, labeled for what they are. Weigh them yourself.

  • The "chariot wheels" in the Red Sea (disputed, even by creationist groups)
  • The Han-dynasty imperial edict said to echo the crucifixion
  • Genesis narratives claimed to be hidden in Chinese characters
