Introduction
介紹
“How can someone as well educated and intellectually
astute as you appear to be...really believe in a literal
Jesus and all this ‘born-again’ stuff?”
Dr. “P”
Dept. Chair WLSC, 1976
“怎麼一個受過良好教育和智力
精明如你的人似乎......真的相信在字面上的
耶穌和這一切的'重生'的事？“

THE QUESTION
問題
Do you have to throw your “brains in the trash” to
believe in Christ?
你必須“不用你的大腦”來相信基督？
THE JOURNEY
历程
Is there intellectually feasible evidence to support a
faith in the Jesus of the Bible with His claims of deity,
eternal life, and absolute truth?
是否有理智可行的證據來支持
信仰聖經中的耶穌與他的神性的說法，
永生和絕對真理？
THE CENTRAL ISSUE
核心問題
Christianity rises or falls on the truthfulness and
reality of the resurrection – 1 Corinthians 15:13-19
真理与真實的復活关乎基督教的起或落，
- 哥林多前書15：13-19
