Jesus - The Evidence


Final DaysThe Final Days of Jesus by Shimon Gibson. In this book a renowned archaeologist looks at Jesus' last days. We all know that Jesus spent his last week in Jerusalem. In fact, it is from this small window of his final seven days that almost all historical data surrounding Jesus has been collected. Few theologians and historians have had direct access to the ancient buried city of Jerusalem, let alone to remains dating specifically from the time of Jesus. This book is the first book of its kind to examine the final days of Jesus using the full array of such archaeological discoveries. Renowned archaeologist Shimon Gibson has been has been digging in Jerusalem since the 1970s and has been directly connected to every discovery pertaining to Jesus and the first century. It is this unprecedented access to all the key archaeological finds of Jesus during his final days that cannot be found in any other publication about Jesus. Describing the events of the final days of Jesus chronologically, this remarkable work is packed with all relevant archaeological discoveries known to have a bearing on the story of the final days of Jesus. (Normally £12.99 we have at £9.99)

Jesus inquestThe Jesus Inquest by Charles Foster. Most books defending the Resurrection do not give adequate room to the arguments against. Charles Foster presents key points as a heated, no-holds barred debate between barristers. 'There are grounds for Christian confidence,' says the author. 'The best way of demonstrating that is to have a fair fight.' The key arguments against the Resurrection, all of which Foster deals with robustly, include: The evidence is hopelessly fragmentary; Jesus did not die on the Cross; it was highly unlikely the Romans would hand a body over; why should the Romans really bother to guard the tomb of a tin-pot Messiah?; Mark's Gospel is the primary source for both Matthew and Luke, and Mark does not deal at all with post-Resurrection appearances. (Normally at £8.99 we have at an amazing £2.99 - yes £2.99)

Books the church suppressedThe Books the Church Suppressed by Dr Michael Green

Dan Brown's bestseller "The Da Vinci Code" argues that the church has falsified the truth - that the story of Jesus, dying on the Cross for the sins of the world, is utterly untrue: a fiction perpetrated by a male, power-hungry hierarchy. He puts forward the case, previously argued in the eighties bestseller "Holy Blood", "Holy Grail", that the Church deliberately suppressed the so-called Gnostic Gospels and other sources in its anxiety to conceal what really happened. Dr Michael Gren goes back to the original sources to check these assertions. The Church certainly denounced many Gospels and other purported revelations. Why? What did it fear? Were these fears well-grounded? What are ten implications of the ideas put forward by Dan Brown and his fellow-travellers? Can the famous Gnostic Gospels be trusted? (Normall £7.99 we have at £5.99)
