Synopsis

Jesus' very presence as the New Testament age unfolded (1st century A.D.), engendered
opposition, created confl ict, while ushering in grace. His ideas were considered "radical." Why
is this so? The NIV Archeological Study Bible (2005), NIV Student Bible, et al. and corroborating
Extra-Biblical evidence provide a context for the Word view about Jesus in Biblical history,
and supports aspects of the social and physical sciences in terms of cultural, socio-economic,
political, historical, archeological, and philosophical (apologetics) evidence. As the pages of
this book unfold, there is an internal consistency with social science and The Bible. However,
where such consistency appeared to diverge, this author attempts to "fi lter" out the "noise" by
applying critical thinking criteria to a Worldview that may not be consistent with the Word
view." The goal of this book therefore is to provide some exposition (Greek apologia) of the
Word and see how the World "fi ts." Born again Christians can be credible scientists and not
compromise God's Word. After thoughtful reading please send refl ective comments to Dr.
