The Historical Jesus

Of course, Jesus is a historical figure. He is actually the focal point of history.

Some people who have gone on a quest for the "historical Jesus" have done it from an approach that seemed to undermine Scripture. They try to find the historical facts behind the "mythology" of Scripture. While they define "myth" in a way that is not as bad as the usual understanding of the word (as related to the Bible), they still are way too skeptical of some of the words in Scripture in my opinion. I do assure you that my stance is to be fully committed to the inerrancy of the Word of God.
