Lord or Legend?: Wrestling with the Jesus Dilemma Book

The Christian apologetic of "Lord, Liar, or Lunatic" made famous by C. S. Lewis has gained recent skepticism. Many twenty-first-century critics of Christianity believe the biblical portrait of Jesus Christ is based on myth. Lord or Legend? puts skeptics' claims to the test against multiple scholarly disciplines--including history, ethnography, anthropology, and folklore--to uncover fascinating truths about the historical Jesus. Authors Gregory A. Boyd and Paul Rhodes Eddy address pressing questions like: â?¢ Was first-century Judaism an environment for pagan mythological beliefs? â?¢ How are the Gospels accurate if they originated through oral tradition? â?¢ Do similarities between Jesus and other myths discredit Christianity? â?¢ Are the Scriptures historically accurate? Biased? Translated accurately? â?¢ Do archeological findings support or refute biblical accounts? Lord or Legend? is written in an accessible form for all lay readers whether believers in or skeptics of Christianity.Read More
