No name has been more popular, more loved, or more controversial than Jesus Christ. And yet there's a tension between his legacy as the world's greatest most popular hero; and the reality that even pastors and churches violate his teachings on a daily basis. For this reason, an individual must hear from Jesus for himself and then determine his or her beliefs. Is Jesus truly who he said he was? In this book, it's time to meet the one who claims to be our Savior... and make that determination for yourself.This inspirational Christian ebook deals with the reasons our world rejects Jesus by exploring how he responded to his critics throughout the days wherein he taught the people about God's Kingdom. Who's better to gain advice and how-to information from than Jesus? And what better knowledge is there to possess than that of the kingdom of heaven? This biblical self-help book will introduce those who haven't met him, to the great one himself... Jesus. Let his own words and actions be the deciding factor in choosing whether or not to believe in what he stands for. Look Inside!
