The Death and Resurrection Of Our World
Episode 16: Who Is Jesus Christ? — The Death and Resurrection of Our World
Description:
In this powerful and deeply thought-provoking episode, we’re joined by special guest Jay Temple, a lifelong believer and missionary with over 30 years of ministry experience. Together, we explore the central question of Christianity: Who is Jesus Christ?
This isn't just a theological discussion — it's a deep dive into the divinity, miracles, and historical legitimacy of Jesus. From raising Lazarus from the dead to feeding the multitudes, calming storms, and confounding even His enemies, we examine the unmatched uniqueness of Christ and what that means for a world longing for truth and resurrection.
We also tackle the evidence: the eyewitness accounts, the external historical references (like the writings of Josephus), and the sheer impossibility of the miracles if Jesus were just an ordinary man. If you’ve ever wondered why Jesus stands apart from every other figure in history — this episode will give you both truth and testimony.
Whether you're seeking, skeptical, or walking strong in your faith, this conversation will stir your soul and help you see why Jesus isn’t just part of the story — He is the story.
