Who is Jesus? No name has sparked more controversy, devotion, or division throughout human history. Some dismiss him as merely a good teacher or prophet, while others worship him as Lord and Savior. But beyond opinions, what does the evidence actually reveal?
Our journey through this question takes us beyond scripture to examine compelling historical records from non-Christian sources. Roman historians Tacitus and Pliny the Younger, along with Jewish historian Josephus, all document Jesus and the early Christian movement—providing powerful external validation for biblical accounts. Archaeological discoveries like the Pilate Stone and eyewitness testimonies recorded in the New Testament further establish Jesus as a real historical figure whose impact transformed the world.
Yet the evidence goes deeper. Hundreds of years before Jesus's birth, Old Testament prophets foresaw specific details about the coming Messiah—his virgin birth in Bethlehem, his suffering, and his mission to reconcile humanity with God. The mathematical probability of one person fulfilling even a handful of these prophecies is astronomically small, yet Jesus fulfilled them all. This convergence of historical, archaeological, and prophetic evidence presents us with a profound question: if Jesus truly is who he claimed to be, how should we respond?
The answer to "Who is Jesus?" isn't just theological—it's deeply personal. We can reject him, ignore him, or follow him as Lord. As you reflect on this Coffee Talk conversation, consider what your response will be to the one whom scripture declares is "the way, the truth, and the life."
