EPISODE 24: Who Was Jesus Really?

Summary: Whether you’re listening because you’re curious, deconstructing, skeptical, or quietly hoping faith might still be true, this episode is for you. For nearly 20 years, Amber stepped away from Jesus not out of rebellion, but because she needed truth. She needed evidence, not pressure. Questions, not slogans. This new series begins the journey back to the most important question: Was Jesus who He claimed to be? Not blind faith. Not emotional persuasion. Truth that can withstand scrutiny. And we begin where the Gospel of John begins not with a birth story, but with eternity. 📖 In This Episode, We Explore: Why doubt and questions are not enemies of faith John’s radical opening claim: Jesus as eternal Creator What “the Word” (Logos) actually means Why Jesus is presented as God — not just a teacher How early the Gospel accounts were written Why resurrection belief didn’t evolve slowly Historical credibility of eyewitness testimony Lee Strobel’s investigation in The Case for Christ Why the resurrection claim is historically explosive 🧭 Episode Breakdown 1. Faith After Walking Away This episode begins with Amber’s personal story: Raised in faith Walked away for 20 years Needed evidence, not emotion Asked God to reveal truth directly The return wasn’t pressure it was investigation. 2. John Starts With Eternity John 1 doesn’t ease into Jesus. It declares: “In the beginning was the Word…” Jesus is presented as: Eternal Creator Source of life Light entering darkness Not a prophet. Not a symbol. God in flesh. 3. Logos: The Intelligence Behind Reality John uses the Greek word Logos: To Jewish listeners → God’s creative power To Greek thinkers → Reason holding the universe together John is saying: The force behind existence has a name. And His name is Jesus. 4. Early Eyewitness Evidence Many assume Jesus’ divinity was invented centuries later. Historical scholarship shows: Gospel accounts written within 30–60 years Early creeds dated 2–5 years after crucifixion 500+ eyewitness claims still alive at the time Resurrection belief present immediately This is not legend formation. This is near-contemporary testimony. 5. If Jesus Is Not God… Then His claims are blasphemy. But if He is God: Everything changes. 🌅 Final Reflection The Bible is not asking for blind belief. It invites investigation. And for those willing to ask honestly: The evidence is stronger than most people realize. John’s claim still stands: To those who receive Him, He gives the right to become children of God. Maybe that invitation is for you. 🔜 Coming Next Next episode: Miracles, Messiah, and historical credibility Why Jesus’ works mattered and why they’re harder to dismiss than skeptics admit. 🔎 Keywords Who was Jesus really, historical Jesus evidence, Gospel of John explained, Case for Christ summary, resurrection evidence, Christianity investigation, deconstructing faith podcast 🔖 Hashtags #FromSlumberToScripture #WhoWasJesus #CaseForChrist #GospelOfJohn #HistoricalJesus #FaithAndEvidence #ChristianPodcast #DeconstructingFaith #ReturningToFaith #TruthSeeking #BibleStudy #JesusInvestigation #EvidenceForJesus #ChristianJourney ⭐ CALL TO ACTION 👉 Subscribe for weekly truth-seeking episodes 👉 Comment what part surprised you most 👉 Share with someone waking up to what the Bible really says 👉 Follow Amber on TikTok & Instagram @FromSlumberToScripture
