This book is all about God and His son Jesus Christ. Before we can delve into anything relating to God, we need to first of all decide if He even exists. Many atheists in the world simply cannot believe in the existence of an all-powerful creator God who brought all things into existence simply by the power of His word. Then there are millions of Christians who by faith believe in God.
So the first question we need to address is. Can we prove He exists?
This is a question without an exact answer. It is easy for someone to declare God does not exist, but it is impossible to prove it. Conversely, for those who do believe in God, there is much evidence of His existence.
The whole point of this is that Christians who believe in God do so by faith because of two main reasons. First, there is the creation itself, which speaks of a designer due to its complexity, wonders, and laws that keep the entire universe operating the way it does. Then we have the written word of God, His holy Bible.
Regardless of what you believe, Jesus Christ is the most influential person in all of human history. Our modern calendars all start from the date of His birth, even though there is some discrepancy about the exact year of His birth.
Those people who do not believe Jesus even existed have a great deal of historical proof to disprove. Apart from what is recorded for us in the Bible, there is a large amount of information in non-religious writings that mention Jesus as a real person. The Jewish leaders have always acknowledged that Jesus was a real person. They just refused to accept him as their Messiah. Even the Muslims who hate both Jews and Christians believe he lived. But again, they only see him as a prophet and not as God.
