Jesus and History: The Facts of the Case

Michael Horton:

Non-Muslim historians do not even investigate the historical evidence for Islam’s claim that Mohammed was assumed bodily into heaven. According to their followers, the truths of Buddhism, Hinduism, and other world religions would be true regardless of specific historical claims. However, the decisive events surrounding the life of Jesus have received and withstood sustained criticism for two millennia. And there’s a surprising degree of agreement on the historical Jesus even among non-Christians.
