Jesus: Who He Is, What He Did and Why It Matters: A Bible Study for Believers and Skeptics

by Wayne Davies

While traveling with his disciples, Jesus of Nazareth asked them, "Who do people say I am?" They replied, "Some say John the Baptist, others say Elijah; and still others, one of the prophets." "But what about you?" he asked. "Who do you say I am?" Hundreds of years later, people are still asking the question, "Who is Jesus?" Best-selling author Wayne Davies has written this book to help you answer this question. He does so by taking you on a journey through the first 3 chapters of the Gospel of John. Arguably the most influential person in history, did a man named Jesus actually live in the Middle East 2,000 years ago? Did he turn water into wine, walk on water and raise people from the dead, only to die a criminal's death by a cruel and torturous form of punishment, and then come back to life three days later? While on earth, did he say he was God? Most importantly, is Jesus God? The Bible claims to have the answers to these all-important Who is Jesus? What is the meaning of his death? And why does it matter? Written for new believers and skeptics alike, this book offers practical insights and plain English explanations of the essential teachings of the Christian faith. Appropriate for individual or small group study, each chapter includes thought-provoking questions to stimulate discussion, help you wrestle with the text and enhance your understanding of the Scripture.
