Fundamentalists say the fulfillment of prophecy proves the divine inspiration of the Bible. Supposedly, the prophets predicted Jesus Christ's birth, ministry, death, and resurrection centuries before he existed. They also supposedly predicted the rise and fall of nations such as Tyre, Egypt, Edom, and Babylon. And they claim to have described the threat of Russia, the founding of Israel in 1948, and the political unification of Europe. Upon closer examination, the claims do not hold up. The so-called messianic prophecies are taken out of context and have nothing to do with Jesus. This book proves: * Nebuchadnezzar never made a wasteland out of Egypt for forty years as Ezekiel predicted. * The world did not end immediately after the fall of Jerusalem in 70 AD as Jesus had purportedly predicted in Matthew 24. * The biblical prophets predicted nothing about Christ or Antichrist in the distant future but plenty about apocalyptic doom and messianic glory in their own near future. * And much more! Find out why biblical explanations of the world today do not add up and why this matters in The Failure of Bible Prophecy.
Christian apologists like Josh McDowell, Norman Geisler, and William Lane Craig have claimed that the Resurrection of Jesus is the best-proved fact of history. As they tell the story, the original eyewitnesses of the risen Jesus sacrificed their lives for their faith, and people who knew Jesus during his lifetime would have challenged any errors in their testimony. Allegedly, these and many other lines of historical evidence prove the Resurrection beyond a reasonable doubt. In Can Christians Prove the Resurrection?, the traditional Christian arguments for the Resurrection are analyzed and critiqued. In reality, we do not know how most of the apostles met their fates, and religious sects like the Kimbanguists and Hasidic Jews have likewise proclaimed miracles and produced martyrs within the lifetimes of eyewitnesses who should have been able to set the record straight. These and many other lines of evidence raise copious reasonable doubts regarding the claims of the apologists, as this book demonstrates. Once all the relevant evidence is examined, it becomes clear that there is little likelihood that Jesus of Nazareth arose from the dead or that the Resurrection ever took place.
