Publisher's Description
Is Christianity True? is an excellent resource for twenty-first-century Christians and non-Christians who want to investigate the truth-claims of Christianity. This book tackles the most important issues in a clear and compelling way. Part 1 looks at the trustworthiness of the Bible and at Jesus Christ, who claimed to be God incarnate. He verified his claim by his fulfillment of prophecy and his resurrection from the dead. Part 2 shows that the great alternative to Christianity--the belief that there is no God or supernatural realm and that the universe and all that exists do so simply by natural forces--not only is false but is impossible. Part 3 deals with perhaps the greatest challenge to Christianity, the "problem of evil," i.e., if God is all knowing, all powerful, and all good, then why is there so much evil in the world? The book does not shy away from discussing up-to-date scientific knowledge and shows how this knowledge actually confirms the claims of Christianity. This book is a clear, yet challenging, explanation of the biblical, historical, philosophical, and scientific evidence which shows that, indeed, Christianity is true.

“A compelling apologetics resource to explain the truth-claims of Christianity. Jonathan M. Menn tackles topics like the reliability of the Bible, the identity of Jesus, the impossibility of naturalism, and the problem of evil. I highly recommend this enlightening examination of the evidence on whether God exists, if the Bible and Christianity are valid, and if science contradicts the Bible.”
“When I reviewed Jonathan Menn’s Biblical Eschatology for the first time I believed it would become the standard work for those desiring a fair, in depth but readable volume on the subject. I feel the same way about Is Christianity True? after reading it . . . this is an excellent apologetic.”
“Jonathan Menn provides a well-researched and systematic compendium, responding thoughtfully to key challenges and arguments commonly leveled against God, Christianity, and the Bible. He offers historical, literary, archaeological, scientific, and philosophical responses to relate a high view of Scripture accessibly to provide his ‘faith-based-on-fact’ approach. Menn engages effectively with an extensive array of experts across multiple fields of study. His background in both law and theology undergirds his logically organized approach. Is Christianity True? is a helpful apologetic for the pastor, student, curious, and informed reader of Scripture from a biblical, conservative, and Reformed-leaning perspective.”
