Who is the real Jesus? Is the story of His birth and early life, as generally taught, really true? That's what this book is all about! Many accept and never question what they've read about Jesus' life. Others defend their beliefs and feel no need to examine the evidence why. Few are aware that some stories of Jesus were taken from paganism, misleading traditions, and human reasoning-and not from the Bible. As a result, much of what is believed about Jesus has no biblical basis and often the Bible teaches the exact opposite! As you will see, new facts about the life of Jesus can be gained by combining Biblical texts with secular historical accounts and authentic traditions about the times in which He lived. This book is not a complete history of Jesus' earthly life. It covers aspects of His early life and times that aren't well known. As you read this book, I recommend releasing any preconceived ideas. Investigate what is revealed in the pages of your Bible with an open heart.
