Why
Christianity is True Series
Welcome
to another special BONUS episode of Saturday Cappuccino with the Saints and our
continuing series – Why Christianity is true. And this week we tackle
one of the most persistent modern objections to Christianity: the claim that
Jesus never said He was God.
Drawing from historical scholarship,
Second Temple Jewish theology, early Christian writings, and Jesus’ own words
and actions, this episode dismantles the modern skeptical framework and shows
why the divinity of Christ is not a later invention but embedded in the
earliest layers of Christian history.
We examine Bart Ehrman’s arguments,
the assumptions of the historical‑critical school, the explosive significance
of Jesus’ “I AM” statements, His authority to forgive sins, His acceptance of
worship, and—most importantly—His repeated use of the title Son of Man from
the Book of Daniel, a divine figure who rides the clouds, judges the nations,
and shares God’s throne.
Featuring insights from N. T. Wright,
Larry Hurtado, and C. S. Lewis, this episode builds a compelling case that
Jesus did, in fact, claim divinity—and that the earliest Christians recognized
it from the beginning.
You won’t want to miss it!
