Jesus of History: Is the Christ of Faith

Jesus of History is a fresh look at the life of Jesus based on a harmony of the four Gospels.. Emerging from college classroom lectures, adult Bible study classes, sermons, and a lifetime of personal study, Grady Manley presents the story of the eternal Christ who lived on this earth as a Jewish carpenter and itinerant preacher, Jesus of Nazareth. The reader is encouraged to view Jesus as an authentic personal being, with all the limitations of genuine humanity. In the normal pursuit of his ministry, Jesus' true deity is recognized only by faith of some who saw and heard him. The wondrous story is chronological and biographical (as far as can be ascertained), with frequent excursions into apologetics, theology, devotions, and practical life values. This volume is designed for personal reading, college course textbook, or group Bible studies.
