Editorial Review:

Product Description:
From college classrooms to bestselling books to the Internet, the historic picture of Jesus is under an intellectual onslaught. This fierce attack on the traditional portrait of Christ has confused spiritual seekers and created doubt among many Christians – but can these radical new claims and revisionist theories stand up to sober scrutiny?

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Another great book from Lee Strobel
If you have ever read one of Lee Strobel's "The Case for..." books then you know you're in for a smart, thought-provoking and wonderful book.

If you have not read any of these books, give this one a try. You will not be disappointed.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - The Case for the Real Jesus
The Case for the Real Jesus: A Journalist Investigates Current Attacks on the Identity of Christ I have found this book to be very interesting and well written. I had seen the author on TV at the Crystal Cathedral. He researched his subject well and had a very good reason to believe the Bible and be a Christian.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - A much needed addition to debate on historical Jesus
I enjoyed Mr. Strobel's book very much, but other reviewers have already covered many of the important points. I'd just like to add that my favorite chapter was Chapter 2, in which Mr. Strobel answers the charge that "The Bible's portrait of Jesus can't be trusted because the church tampered with the text."

Ehrman and others who make up the Jesus Seminar ... Read More



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Jesus--He's the Real Thing! And what a case!
Lee Strobel's profile of Jesus Christ is divided into three parts, the historical, the Freudian, and the fantastic--

1. Examining the Record; 2. Analyzing Jesus; and 3. Researching the Resurrection.

In "Part 1: Examining the Record," Strobel tells how God came to Earth to become the real Jesus. See if you can follow this, it's tough, even for me.

In heaven, during my prehistoric days as a choirboy, Dad always called the second person of the Trinity, "Ben" (which ... Read More



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - A heavy read
It took me a long time to finish this book, not because it isn't good but because it's full of heavy content that can't be taken in large bites. I think it might have been easier to read without the slightly contrived "I interviewed this expert and this is where he sat and this is what he was wearing" style. It is nevertheless an excellent rebuttal of all the shoddy liberal scholarship that masquerades as theology these days.
