Restoring the Biblical Christ

<p>Where did the modern beliefs about Jesus come from? What did the earliest Christians believe about Jesus? Did they believe Jesus preexist his humanity? That he was born of a virgin? This book is jam-packed with little-known quotes from early Christianity quotes from respected biblical scholars and information on the earliest biblical manuscripts (over 500 reference notes!). <em>Restoring the Biblical Christ: Is Jesus God?</em> documents the earliest beliefs regarding Jesus and how certain theologically charged biblical texts have often been mistranslated to promote a corrupted view of Christ. <em>Restoring the Biblical Christ: Is Jesus God?</em> argues that there is one God the Father (1 Corinthians 8:6) that Jesus was a man (John 8:40) distinct from God (John 7:16-17) but that God revealed himself through Jesus (John 14:10). This position leaves many questions to be answered like <em>Why does the Bible say Jesus was worshipped?</em> <em>Why is the Word called God in John 1:1? What did Jesus mean when he said Before Abraham was I am?</em> All of these questions and more are addressed in detail within <em>Restoring the Biblical Christ: Is Jesus God?  </em></p>
